Windows & More has two of the only registered installation Master Certified Installers in Eastern North Carolina. Myself, Jason Yeomans here again, and one of my lead installers are certified by Installation Masters as AAMA fenestration installers. Do you know that your windows are only as good as their installation, at least to a degree.
I have been selling windows and doors in the Beaufort, Morehead City, Emerald Isle area for more than 19 years and have seen many problems with window installation during that time. Marvin and Integrity windows, are far and above the most superior product I have sold during those years, especially for coastal hurricane impact exposure areas. Marvin features aluminum clad wood windows with a kynar finish, that fights salt corrosion better than any aluminum I have ever serviced. Marvin Integrity features the ultrex fiberglass, which is very unique, and the best material for coastal exposures I have ever sold.
Even with these products, if not installed properly, it doesnt matter how much your package cost you, they will not perform to the capabilities if not correctly flashed, weatherproofed, and caulked. Marvin and Integrity have very specific instructions, which if followed properly will insure years of performance from your windows and doors. If not done properly, you can have the same problems as other windows when not installed correctly, or for that matter some other windows dont perform even when installed properly (for a list of these feel free to schedule an appointment with me, haha).
Proper window and door installation is no laughing matter, but humor is something I do love. Whether you are in Wilmington, topsail beach, Swansboro, Jacksonville, Greenville, Bath, Washington, Oriental, Pine Knoll Shores, or anywhere in between, we have certified crews to install your window and door packages. We don't require you to have us install your windows and doors, we will gladly sell you a package only. We do highly recommend that to get the most out of your purchase, you do hire professional installers or you may have a less than satisfactory experience.
Hurricane wind zones present different obstacles than other areas we serve. Marvin offers impact windows, impact doors, in many styles, sizes, shapes,and colors, so don't be fooled into thinking that since you need impact products, you are limited to a small array of choices. It is quite the contrary so make sure you pay our showroom a visit and see for yourself why Windows & More is someone you should consider before making one of the most important purchases for your home: Your windows and doors.
In closing, remember that proper installation is paramount for you windows and doors, but definitely in high wind zones. Even if you end up purchasing Andersen, pella, or Jeld-wen products, do yourself a favor and choose the right installer.
