Window and Door Replacement Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs
Yes. We offer products designed for coastal environments, including impact-rated options. In areas requiring windstorm compliance, the correct product and installation requirements must be followed based on Texas Department of Insurance windstorm regulations.
Because windows and doors are custom-made products, cancellation is limited. Written cancellation requests must be received no later than midnight of the third business day after your deposit. Once production begins, orders cannot be changed or canceled.
We install high-quality replacement windows and doors designed for the Texas Coastal Bend climate, including products from Wincore Windows. Wincore products are engineered with features such as energy-efficient glass packages, durable vinyl frames, and options designed for residential performance.
If a product defect or fitting issue occurs, Coastal View Windows and Doors will work with the manufacturer to reorder the correct product at no additional charge. Custom products are made specifically for your home, so replacement rather than refunds is the standard solution.
When removing old windows or doors, hidden issues such as damaged framing or structural problems may sometimes be discovered. If additional repairs are needed, we will notify you before proceeding and discuss any added costs.
Most window and door projects are completed within approximately 4 to 8 weeks from the time of order, depending on product availability, manufacturing schedules, permitting, and installation requirements. Some custom products may require additional time. Coastal View Windows and Doors will keep you updated throughout the process.
Homeowners are responsible for final selections, including:
- Frame colors
- Glass options
- Grid patterns
- Hardware choices
- Other product options
Homeowners are also responsible for obtaining approval from homeowner associations or historical districts when required.
Impact-rated products may eliminate the need for additional windborne debris protection when properly approved for the application. Non-impact products in areas requiring windstorm compliance may require approved hurricane protection systems. Requirements vary by location and project specifications.
Older aluminum windows often have poor insulation, allow more heat transfer, and can contribute to higher energy costs. Modern vinyl windows with Low-E glass technology provide improved insulation, reduced heat gain, better comfort, and improved energy efficiency for coastal climates.
Yes. Today's energy-efficient windows use advanced technologies such as Low-E coatings, insulated glass units, and improved frame designs to help reduce heat transfer. Features like Low-E 366 glass are designed to help block solar heat while allowing natural daylight into your home.
Before installation, homeowners should:
- Remove blinds, curtains, window treatments, brackets, and decorations
- Remove furniture near windows
- Remove window AC units and security bars if applicable
- Provide approximately three feet of workspace around each window
Proper preparation helps your installation move faster and keeps your home protected.
All installations include a 1-year caulk warranty. Manufacturer warranties apply to qualifying window and door products. Warranty coverage does not include issues caused by foundation movement, structural shifting, or conditions outside the installation.
Yes. Window and door replacement is a construction project, so some dust, noise, and disruption should be expected. Our team works carefully to protect your home, minimize mess, and complete the installation safely and efficiently.
Many projects require permits depending on your location and the scope of work. Coastal View Windows and Doors will obtain required permits when applicable. Homeowners must allow required final inspections to close permits. Failure to allow inspection may result in additional re-inspection fees.
Arrival times are approximate because every project is different. An adult 18 years or older must be present during installation. Please secure pets, notify your alarm company if needed, and make sure installers have safe access to the work area.
Our goal is to provide a professional installation experience while improving your home's beauty, comfort, energy efficiency, and protection.
