Renewal by Andersen’s Window Services

The window installation process is easy with Renewal by Andersen. Starting with a free in-home consultation, Renewal by Andersen determines your needs and then has a professional technician measure, evaluate, and customize the window to best fit your space. They then properly install, clean up, and provide long-term satisfaction with comprehensive warranty coverage.

Window Warranty Coverage

Renewal by Andersen offers the best warranty coverage in the industry. They have the following:

• A 20-year warranty plan for glass and fibrex materials
• A 10-year coverage plan on non-glass parts such as locks, hinges, and other components
• A two-year professional installation plan and fully transferable coverage so you can pass on the warranty to the next homeowner

When it’s time to repair or replace your windows, all you have to do is submit your request online and a local retailer will service you.

Replacement Windows

We recommend Renewal by Andersen’s replacement options, which are beautifully custom-crafted and made to order. Renewal by Andersen windows are recognized for their uniquely beneficial, long-lasting, and energy-saving qualities. Here are the benefits:

• Made from Andersen-exclusive Fibrex® composite material that’s professionally installed by an experienced professional installer
• Energy efficient using raw wood fibers, combined with other materials to make them both Green Seal certified and ENERGY STAR® certified
• Durable materials meant to withstand difficult climates and weather conditions, as well as weathertight qualities to keep your home insulated and protected
• Narrower window frames, which give you more glass, better views, and more natural light

Renewal by Andersen uses Fibrex®, a patented PVC-wood composite material that’s composed of 40% recycled Ponderosa pine wood fibers and 60% polyvinylchloride, to improve thermal insulation. This type of window is also stronger, cheaper, and more eco-friendly than vinyl.

In addition to their window services, they also provide door installation and replacement services.

“Great team & product. Our house is quieter with the new windows. Every aspect was explained with customer satisfaction throughout.” Hugh S.

“The quality of the materials and the workmanship of the installation team led by Rob was excellent. Everything promised was delivered. The team was very pleasant and cordial. They succeeded at leaving my home cleaner than when they arrived, even vacuuming the floor and carpet near the work areas. Can’t ask for any more. I would recommend them to anyone.” -Michelle K.

“Excellent! Exceeded expectation. Crew cleaned up after completion better than any service people we’ve had at the house.” -Dan W.

“First of all—we love our new windows!! We were especially impressed with our sales representative John. His hand written thank you note for our decision to use RBA was a personal touch that you just don’t expect these days. He also showed up on installation day to be sure everything was going smoothly—above and beyond our expectations of a salesperson. Additionally, the installation team was professional and courteous!” -Denise S.
