Why a Warranty Should Be a Big Factor in Window Replacement
July 24, 2018Product warranties protect consumers from unnecessary expenses in case of a product malfunction or damage that arises during the covered period. When it comes to replacement windows, these warranties can tell you a lot about the contractor you’re working with.
Today, Renewal by Andersen® of Eastern NY explains why strong warranties should be one of the factors you consider when planning a window replacement.
1. It’s a Cushion
Strong warranties on any home improvement project (including the products) provide homeowners a safety cushion. It gives you the security of knowing that you have long-term support for a major purchase. In most cases, you can get repairs or replacements of faulty products at no cost as long as you have an active warranty.
2. Assurance of Quality
The warranty on windows is your assurance that the product you’ve invested in is high quality. By offering a strong warranty, the manufacturer is telling you they believe their product is so reliable and long-lasting that they’re willing to bet against it.
Say you are investing in new double-hung windows; both the manufacturer and the contractor are putting something on the line to ensure you get the product and service you deserve. They are confident the product will last and perform well; if not, they have the warranty in place to rectify the problem.
3. Easy, Free Replacements
If your new window encounters a major problem, whether due to material defect, improper installation or both, it will need to be replaced. With a warranty, the replacement won’t cost you anything.
4. Peace of Mind
When you invest in a window that comes with a warranty, you’re not just buying the product, you’re also buying peace of mind for yourself. For example, if you’re planning a home redesign with new sliding windows, you’re not only getting the windows, you’re also getting the assurance that if something unexpected happens that damages the product, you won’t be on the hook financially.
