What works best for Houston?
Should you hire a professional window installation company or attempt a DIY window installation. DIY can save money, but may also cost more in the long run. Mistakes are costly and the installation can be dangerous. What could go wrong?
Common DIY Installation Errors:
- Incorrect Dimensions: Measuring the window opening incorrectly is a common mistake. This can result in a window arriving that is too large or too small.
- Out-of-Square Openings: Older homes (and many new homes) often have openings that are not perfectly square. Failure to get multiple measurements from different points will create installation headaches.
- Window Not Set Level and Plumb: If the new window isn’t installed perfectly level and plumb, it will result in hard to open or hard to close windows. Can also cause uneven gaps, and stress on the window frame.
- Incorrect Fastening: Using the wrong grade or length of fasteners, or not spacing them correctly, can compromise the structural integrity of the installation and lead to leaks or the window coming loose over time.
- Damage to the Window: Mishandling the new window during installation can result in scratches, dents, broken glass, and injury.
- Over-tightening Fasteners: Tightening screws too much can warp the window frame, hindering operation and potentially damaging the window.

What Do We Mean About “Best Products”?
Houston Window Experts offers nearly two dozen brands of windows and doors. Products we have personally tested and have installed. We have visited many of the window factories and vendors at trade shows and have interviewed each manufacturer. We have fully vetted our window offerings and have arrived at the best window brands and feature sets for the Texas market.
Our Houston showroom is where you can come in and touch, operate, and discuss the features and benefits of each brand. Other window vendors might only have 1 or 2 brands to choose from. You’ll be selecting your windows from a tiny two square foot sample. One that has been knocked around in a salesman’s trunk for months or even years! Don’t limit your choices!
