Hear from Our Customers
Your windows should work with Maryland’s coastal climate, not against it. When we install your new windows, you’ll notice the difference immediately—rooms stay comfortable without cranking the thermostat, your energy bills drop, and you can actually enjoy the view without worrying about leaks during the next storm.
The humid summers and cold winters here demand windows that can handle temperature swings and moisture without failing. That’s exactly what you get with our high-efficiency installations.
You won’t be calling us back in two years because of condensation between the panes or water damage around the frames. These windows are built to last and installed by people who understand what Eastern Shore weather can do to inferior products.
We’ve been installing windows in Harwood and throughout Maryland’s Eastern Shore since the early 1990s. We’re not some fly-by-night operation that shows up, takes your money, and disappears when problems arise.
As a GAF Master Elite contractor, we rank in the top 2% of contractors nationwide—a certification you don’t get by cutting corners or using cheap materials. We’ve seen what happens when windows aren’t installed properly in this climate, and we’ve built our reputation on doing it right the first time.
Being family-owned means your project matters to us personally. We live and work in this community, so our reputation depends on every single installation we complete.
We start with an honest assessment of your current windows and what you actually need—not a high-pressure sales pitch designed to empty your wallet. During our consultation, we’ll explain exactly what’s wrong, what options make sense for your home and budget, and give you a fair price upfront.
Once you’re ready to move forward, we handle all the details. We order your windows from trusted manufacturers, schedule the installation around your timeline, and show up when we say we will. Our certified installers remove your old windows carefully, install the new ones with precision, and clean up completely before we leave.
If insurance is involved because of storm damage, we work directly with your insurance company to make the process as smooth as possible. You shouldn’t have to become an expert in insurance claims just to get your windows fixed properly.

Every window we install is designed for Maryland’s coastal climate—built to handle humidity, temperature swings, and severe weather without failing. We use energy-efficient windows that meet or exceed Energy Star standards, which means you’ll see real savings on your utility bills.
Our installations include proper flashing, insulation, and sealing to prevent the water infiltration problems that plague so many homes in this area. We’re not just swapping out glass—we’re creating a complete weather barrier that protects your home and keeps your family comfortable.
In Harwood’s high-end housing market, where homes routinely sell for $700,000 to over $1 million, you need windows that match the quality of your investment. Cheap windows stick out like a sore thumb and hurt your property value. Our installations enhance both the performance and appearance of your home.
Most residential window installations in Harwood take one to two days, depending on how many windows you’re replacing and the complexity of your home’s design. We schedule installations to minimize disruption to your daily routine.
For a typical Harwood home with 10-15 windows, expect the work to be completed in a single day if weather cooperates. Larger homes or custom installations may require additional time, but we’ll give you an accurate timeline upfront so you can plan accordingly.
We don’t rush the job to meet an artificial deadline. Proper installation takes the time it takes, and we’d rather do it right than fast.
Yes, but the savings depend on what you’re replacing and how your current windows are performing. If you have single-pane windows or failed double-pane units, you’ll see significant improvements in both comfort and energy costs.
Maryland’s climate puts a lot of demand on heating and cooling systems. When your windows are leaking air or have compromised seals, your HVAC system works overtime to maintain comfortable temperatures. Energy-efficient windows reduce that load substantially.
Most of our Harwood customers see noticeable differences in their first utility bill after installation. The exact savings depend on your home’s size, your current windows’ condition, and your heating and cooling usage patterns.
Absolutely. We work directly with insurance companies on storm damage claims throughout the Eastern Shore. This isn’t a side service—it’s a core part of what we do, especially given how frequently severe weather affects this area.
We document the damage properly, provide detailed estimates that insurance adjusters understand, and communicate directly with your insurance company throughout the process. This saves you from becoming the middleman in technical discussions about materials and installation methods.
Our experience with insurance work means we know exactly what documentation is required and how to present claims in a way that gets approved quickly. We’ve been through this process hundreds of times with virtually every major insurance carrier.
We’re GAF Master Elite certified, which puts us in the top 2% of contractors nationwide. That certification isn’t handed out—it’s earned through proven performance, customer satisfaction, and technical expertise.
More importantly, we’ve been installing windows specifically in Maryland’s coastal climate for over 30 years. We understand exactly how humidity, salt air, and temperature fluctuations affect different window materials and installation methods. This isn’t theory—it’s practical knowledge gained from thousands of installations.
Being family-owned and locally focused means we can’t afford to do poor work. Our reputation in this community is everything, so every installation has to meet our standards, not just pass a basic inspection.
For Harwood’s coastal location, you need windows that can handle high humidity, salt air, and significant temperature swings between seasons. We typically recommend double or triple-pane windows with low-E coatings and quality weatherstripping.
Vinyl and fiberglass frames perform exceptionally well here because they don’t expand and contract as much as other materials, maintaining better seals over time. The specific choice depends on your home’s architectural style and your performance priorities.
We avoid recommending the cheapest options because they simply don’t hold up in this climate. The few hundred dollars you might save upfront get eaten up quickly by higher energy bills and premature replacement needs.
Look for obvious signs like condensation between glass panes, difficulty opening or closing windows, drafts you can feel even when windows are closed, or visible water damage around window frames. These indicate seal failures or installation problems that can’t be effectively repaired.
Less obvious signs include rooms that are hard to heat or cool, unusually high energy bills, or windows that fog up excessively during humid weather. If your windows are more than 15-20 years old and showing any of these symptoms, replacement usually makes more financial sense than attempting repairs.
During our consultation, we’ll assess each window’s condition and give you an honest evaluation of what needs immediate attention versus what might last a few more years. We’re not interested in selling you windows you don’t actually need.
