Storm windows add another window layer over suitable existing windows. Professional Home Services installs and replaces storm windows in Richmond VA. Start by checking whether the existing window can support the proposed arrangement and still operate as intended.
Compare fit, ventilation and access to the existing window. Discuss whether an added storm window or a complete replacement better suits the opening's condition. Storm windows should not be confused with tested impact rated replacement windows.
Review how the added unit opens and how the original window remains accessible. Fit and ventilation should be compared before selecting a style.

Review dimensions, attachment surfaces and drainage or weep details before installation. The chosen arrangement should allow the intended use of the original window. The estimate should identify removal and finishing work where replacement is planned.
Existing frame condition and attachment surfaces affect whether a storm window is appropriate. A deteriorated original window may call for a different replacement plan.
Review storm windows as part of the complete project. The estimate should identify the selected materials and the installation work included.
