Use Inexpensive Materials
Everyone would love to install the very best windows the industry has to offer but when
resources are limited, this can be compromised. Solid wood windows are the ideal options
for many but they cost ridiculously expensive. If you are trying to save some coins, you are
better off using vinyl or fibreglass frames. These will get the job done just as much and
won’t cost you a fortune. Think about it, “who gives that much thought about the material
of construction of your windows anyway?”

Don’t Hire Dealers That Focus On One Brand Only
Diversification is a very important element in the quest to saving money on window
replacement. Authorized dealers who insist on selling materials from one band only hurt
your negotiation efforts. Sadly, this is the situation with a large number of them out there.
Often, it is easy to take the bait because they have been in the industry for a long time.
They know what quality is and what’s not. They can tell you who to call when you need
warranty.
Under normal circumstances (when the bank account is fat), these would be great but when
money is an issue, you want a higher bargaining power. Thankfully, not all authorized
dealers and brand-centric. Once you get one who has an open mind, hire them immediately.
