Your home stays warmer in winter, cooler in summer, and quieter all year. No more drafts sneaking through old frames or condensation building up between panes.
Modern energy-efficient windows can save Arnold homeowners around $222 annually on energy bills. That’s real money back in your pocket, not just a sales pitch.
You’ll also qualify for Maryland’s 30% tax credit on ENERGY STAR certified windows, plus utility rebates through EmPOWER Maryland. The windows pay for themselves faster than you’d expect.
We’ve been serving Maryland’s Eastern Shore for over three decades. We’re a family-owned company that knows Arnold’s weather patterns and what windows actually work here.
As a GAF Master Elite contractor, we rank among the top 2% of contractors nationwide. That certification doesn’t come easy – it requires proven quality, ongoing training, and customer satisfaction standards most companies can’t meet.
We handle everything from helping with insurance claims after storm damage to walking you through Maryland’s energy efficiency rebates. You’re not just getting new windows – you’re getting local expertise that makes the whole process smoother.
First, we come out for a free consultation and measurement. No pressure, no three-hour sales presentations. We assess what you need and give you a straightforward quote.
Once you’re ready to move forward, we order your custom windows. Every window is measured precisely because even small gaps can cause big problems down the road.
Installation day is typically one day for most homes. We protect your floors, remove old windows carefully, and install the new ones with proper sealing and insulation. We clean up completely before we leave.
After installation, we walk through everything with you and explain your warranties. You’ll know exactly what’s covered and for how long.

Every window installation includes professional measurement, custom ordering, complete removal of old windows, and proper installation with quality sealants and insulation materials.
Arnold homeowners deal with Maryland’s unpredictable weather – from humid summers to cold winters. We install windows designed for these conditions, with features like low-E coatings and argon gas fills that actually work.
You’ll get windows that meet ENERGY STAR requirements for Maryland’s climate zone, which means they qualify for both federal tax credits and state utility rebates. We handle the paperwork to make sure you get every incentive available.
All installations come with manufacturer warranties plus our workmanship guarantee. If something goes wrong with the installation, we fix it at no charge.
Arnold homeowners typically save around $222 per year with energy-efficient windows, according to industry data for our area. The exact savings depend on your home’s size, current windows’ condition, and energy usage patterns.
Maryland residents already pay about $271 monthly for electricity – 6% higher than the national average. Old windows with single-pane glass or damaged seals let conditioned air escape, forcing your HVAC system to work harder.
Modern ENERGY STAR windows with proper installation create a thermal barrier that keeps your home’s temperature stable. Less work for your heating and cooling systems means lower monthly bills, and the savings add up quickly over the windows’ 20-30 year lifespan.
Fiberglass and quality vinyl windows perform exceptionally well in Maryland’s humid summers and cold winters. Fiberglass expands and contracts at nearly the same rate as glass, preventing seal failures that cause fogging and drafts.
Vinyl windows offer excellent insulation properties and require minimal maintenance, but quality matters significantly. Cheap vinyl can warp or discolor, while premium vinyl maintains its appearance and performance for decades.
Wood windows provide classic beauty but require regular maintenance in Maryland’s climate. Aluminum conducts heat and cold, making it less energy-efficient. For most Arnold homes, we recommend fiberglass or high-quality vinyl for the best combination of performance, durability, and value.
Yes, Maryland homeowners can claim 30% of qualifying window costs as a federal tax credit, up to $600 per project. The windows must meet ENERGY STAR requirements for our climate zone, and you must file the credit in the year of installation.
Maryland also offers utility rebates through EmPOWER Maryland programs. BGE, Pepco, and other utilities provide additional incentives for energy-efficient upgrades, including windows.
We help you navigate these programs and provide all necessary documentation. The combination of federal credits, state rebates, and energy savings makes quality windows more affordable than most homeowners realize. Keep all receipts and installation contracts – you’ll need them for your tax filing.
Most Arnold homes can have their windows replaced in one day, assuming we’re installing 10-15 windows. Larger homes or complex installations might take two days, but we complete the work efficiently to minimize disruption.
We start early, protect your floors and furniture, and work systematically through the house. Each window takes 30-45 minutes to remove and install properly, including time for sealing and cleanup.
Weather can affect scheduling – we won’t install windows in rain or extreme temperatures because proper sealing requires specific conditions. We’ll reschedule if needed to ensure quality installation. Most homeowners are surprised how quickly the transformation happens and how much quieter their home becomes immediately.
All our window installations come with manufacturer warranties covering the windows themselves, plus our separate workmanship warranty covering installation quality. Manufacturer warranties typically cover glass seal failures, hardware issues, and frame defects for 10-20 years.
Our workmanship warranty covers installation-related issues like improper sealing, alignment problems, or operational difficulties. If we installed it incorrectly, we fix it at no charge to you.
Most quality windows rarely develop problems when installed properly, but if issues arise, we respond quickly. We maintain relationships with manufacturers to expedite warranty claims and keep replacement parts in stock for common repairs. You’ll have our contact information and won’t get passed around to different departments when you need service.
Replacing all windows at once typically provides better energy efficiency results and lower per-window costs. You’ll see immediate comfort improvements throughout your home and maximize energy savings from day one.
However, budget considerations matter. If you need to phase the project, prioritize windows on your home’s most exposed sides – typically south and west-facing windows that get the most sun and weather exposure.
Replacing windows room by room can work, but you’ll pay higher per-window costs and won’t achieve optimal energy efficiency until the project is complete. Many homeowners find that financing the full project upfront and taking advantage of available tax credits and rebates makes complete replacement more affordable than expected.
