Common Reasons for Replacement Window Installation Problems
I. Inexperienced Window Contractors
Homeowners don't install new windows expecting headaches. An integral part of enjoying a trouble-free experience presently and in the future is ensuring you hire the right contractor.
Andersen insists on the use of certified contractors only. Besides typical problems caused by improper installation, contractors who don’t follow Andersen’s installation process and required materials can cause your window warranty to be voided.
Andersen has a list of certified contractors to help homeowners find contractors who will do the job right. We, Preview Construction, are among the list of
certified Andersen Contractors.
II. Wrong Window Selection
Homeowners have their own window preferences. Andersen replacement windows also come in a variety of types, styles, series, etc., suitable for unique reasons. To avoid selecting the wrong Andersen window for your home, it's recommendable to understand your options.
Preview Construction can discuss the pros and cons of different windows. Different windows will suit different architecture. Different windows are also bound to offer different operability, energy efficiency, size of mullions, scratch resistance and more.
If you work with Preview Construction, you don't need to know Andersen's vast window selection. Our Andersen window Dallas experts will guide you accordingly. We know all Andersen windows inside-out and love helping our clients make the best window selection decision in all aspects including price.

III. Poor Window Installation
You can buy the best replacement window brand. However, if it isn't installed properly, you are bound to have problems such as condensation or fogging between panes which is linked to leaky or drafty windows that can't control indoor temperature/conditions appropriately.
Poor window installation can also result in operational problems i.e., when the window doesn’t open or close properly. Misaligned hinges, frames, and other hardware can affect how a window works.
Poor window installation can also cause damage. For instance, mishandling windows can cause cracks, delaying the your much anticipated home renovation project. Windows that aren’t sealed properly can also let in water and cause weather-related damage ranging from mold and mildew to warping, water stains and floor damage.
Drafty windows letting indoor air escape can compromise the energy efficiency of your Andersen windows, increasing your heating/cooling bill.
Gaps between window frames and sills can compromise the final appearance of your home, let in pests and insects, cause water damage and other related problems. Poor caulking caused by a poor installation job comes with similar problems.
Poor installation can also discolor windows over time. What’s more, improper installation can void your Andersen replacement window warranty. Andersen products come with a lifetime limited warranty. However, this is only guaranteed if the windows are installed properly. Using the wrong sealant can be enough to void your window warranty.
Are you looking to eliminate previously poor workmanship, damage rotting, or make your home shine brighter, boost energy efficiently, and curb appeal?
Jason – Preview Construction's Co-Owner is very responsive and involved. Jason visits individual worksites to preempt window installation problems.
