Your windows should keep the weather outside where it belongs. When they’re installed right, you’ll notice the difference immediately—no more cold drafts in winter, less heat creeping in during summer, and energy bills that don’t make you wince.
Quality window installation means your home stays comfortable without your HVAC system working overtime. You get consistent temperatures throughout your house and real savings on monthly utility costs.
The right windows also cut down on outside noise, so you can actually enjoy the peace and quiet inside your own home. Plus, they add real value to your property—something that matters whether you’re staying put or thinking about selling down the road.
We’ve been handling window installations for homeowners across Maryland’s Eastern Shore for over three decades. We’re a family-owned company that knows this area—from the historic rowhouses in Barclay to the coastal homes dealing with salt air and changing weather patterns.
We’re certified GAF Master Elite contractors, which puts us in the top 2% of contractors nationwide. That certification isn’t just a badge—it means we meet strict standards for licensing, insurance, reputation, and ongoing training.
When you’re dealing with windows in homes built before 1939 (like most of Barclay’s housing stock), experience matters. We understand the unique challenges of working with older homes while bringing them up to modern energy efficiency standards.
We start with a thorough assessment of your current windows and your home’s specific needs. No high-pressure sales tactics—just honest evaluation of what you’re dealing with and what options make sense for your situation and budget.
Once you decide to move forward, we handle the ordering and scheduling. Our installation team shows up when promised, prepared with the right tools and materials to get the job done efficiently.
The actual installation typically takes one day for most homes. We protect your furniture and floors, remove the old windows carefully, and install your new ones with proper sealing and weatherproofing. Before we leave, we clean up completely—you won’t find broken glass or construction debris scattered around your property.

We install energy-efficient windows designed specifically for mid-Atlantic climate conditions. That means they handle everything from humid summers to cold, wet winters without warping, leaking, or losing their seal.
Our window selection includes double-hung, casement, bay, and specialty windows in various materials—vinyl, wood, and composite options. Each comes with proper insulation features like low-E glass coatings and warm-edge spacers that actually make a difference in your comfort and energy costs.
For Barclay’s historic homes, we understand the balance between maintaining character and improving performance. We can match architectural styles while upgrading to modern efficiency standards. Many of our installations qualify for energy tax credits, which helps offset the investment cost.
Most window installation projects in Barclay take one day to complete. The exact timeline depends on how many windows you’re replacing and any complications we encounter with older home construction.
For historic homes built before 1939 (which includes most of Barclay’s housing), we sometimes need extra time to address structural issues or work around unique architectural features. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during our initial assessment.
If weather conditions aren’t suitable for installation, we’ll reschedule rather than compromise the quality of the work. Proper sealing and weatherproofing require dry conditions to be effective.
Vinyl windows perform exceptionally well in Maryland’s climate because they don’t expand and contract as much as other materials with temperature changes. They also resist moisture damage, which is important given our humidity levels.
For homeowners who prefer the look of wood, we offer composite materials that give you wood’s appearance without the maintenance requirements. These handle moisture better than traditional wood while maintaining the aesthetic appeal.
The key is proper installation with quality weatherproofing, regardless of material. Even the best windows will fail if they’re not sealed correctly or if the installation doesn’t account for seasonal weather patterns we experience here.
Yes, we regularly work with homeowners’ insurance companies when window damage results from covered events like storms or hail. We can assess the damage, provide detailed documentation, and work directly with adjusters.
Our experience with insurance claims means we know what documentation insurance companies require and how to present damage assessments in a way that supports your claim. We’ve helped many customers get full coverage for their window replacement projects.
However, normal wear and tear or energy efficiency upgrades typically aren’t covered by insurance. We’ll be upfront about what’s likely to be covered versus what would be an out-of-pocket investment in your home’s comfort and value.
Window replacement costs in Maryland typically range from $300 to $1,000 per window, including materials and labor. The final cost depends on window size, style, material choice, and any complications with the existing installation.
Historic homes in Barclay sometimes require additional work to bring the window openings up to current standards or address structural issues. We’ll identify any potential extra costs during our initial assessment so you won’t face surprises.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down material and labor costs. Many energy-efficient windows qualify for tax credits, which can help offset the investment. We can explain which options might qualify when we discuss your project.
Absolutely. We’ve worked extensively with Barclay’s historic rowhouses and understand the importance of maintaining architectural character while improving performance.
We offer windows that replicate traditional divided light patterns, match existing trim profiles, and maintain the proportions that make these homes distinctive. Modern manufacturing allows us to achieve historic looks with contemporary energy efficiency.
For homes in historic districts, we’re familiar with any restrictions or approval processes that might apply. We can guide you through requirements while ensuring your new windows enhance both your home’s appearance and its energy performance.
Our window installations come with comprehensive warranty coverage that includes both manufacturer warranties on the windows themselves and our workmanship guarantee on the installation.
Manufacturer warranties typically cover 10-20 years on materials, depending on the specific window brand and series you choose. Our installation workmanship is guaranteed for two years, covering any issues related to improper installation or weatherproofing.
As a GAF Master Elite contractor, we also provide enhanced warranty options backed by GAF for qualifying installations. This gives you additional protection and peace of mind that your investment is covered by both our company and a major manufacturer.
