Window replacement is no simple matter. Whether you’re set to replace damaged windows that are beyond repair or are looking to enhance your curb appeal with a new set of replacement windows, you’ll need to hire a qualified and trusted contractor. You’ll also have to prepare your home to save time and ensure the project is completed on time.
To help you, here are some frequently asked questions regarding home preparations during a window replacement project.
Q1: How Long Does It Take to Complete a Window Replacement Project?
It all depends on how many windows are going to be replaced. The job is completed within a day if it only involves one or two windows. In some cases, a single day is enough to install up to 10 replacement windows, depending on the size of the installation crew.
Q2: Should I Stay Home While the Project Is Ongoing?
You can stay home if you have a work-from-home arrangement or can take time off for a day or two so you can keep track of the work being done. Also, make sure you are available if ever the foreman or one of the members of the installation crew has questions. Be sure not to hover, however – give the crew space to perform their best work.
Q3: What Preparations Should I Do?
Make sure to prepare your home days before the installation date. Remove decorations, window treatments, picture frames and anything hanging on your walls. Get furniture and appliances out of the way. Ask help from the pros if you have heavy items that are too difficult for you to move. Also, cover your valuables with plastic sheets or drop cloths to protect them from dust and debris. Make sure to keep children and pets as far away from the installation area as possible.
