What happens when your old window comes out - and there’s a bigger problem hiding behind it?
Water damage and wood rot aren’t always obvious from the surface. Sometimes there are warning signs. Other times, you don’t know the full extent of the damage until the old window is removed and everything underneath is exposed.
It’s something we’ve encountered many times - and it’s one of the reasons every Caner project is evaluated individually.
Because installing a beautiful new impact window over an existing problem isn’t a solution.
If we uncover something unexpected, we stop, assess what we’ve found and have an honest conversation with the homeowner about the right path forward.
We don’t cover problems up. We don’t simply install over them. And we don’t look at an unexpected issue as an opportunity to create a new revenue stream.
We’ve been doing this long enough to know what can happen when these issues aren’t handled correctly. In fact, we’ve been called in to help homeowners with the consequences of work that eventually had to be corrected.
Your impact windows are a major investment in your home. The company installing them matters just as much as the product you choose.
You can’t always know what’s behind an old window until it comes out.
But you can choose a company you trust to do the right thing when they find it.
That’s the Caner difference.
