Common mistakes of storm windows buyers

The most common mistake made by people looking for different organizations selling storm prevention is the one of choosing the windows considering the price as the main indicator. The smart sellers speculate this mistake by attracting the customers with some dumping prices, with ads in newspapers and magazines. On the other hand, the prices displayed with those commercials have nothing to do with the actual price that you need to pay. Unless you build your own storm windows, you will have to know why the prices from the commercials are so different of the actual prices.

The small prices usually refer to the fixed windows, without openings. Unless you build a bunker, you will need mobile windows. The price for a small mobile window is at least double than the price of a fixed window having the same surface is double: a mobile window means at least two times more material, and also the hardware such as the lockers.

The price on a square meter is also insignificant even for the same type of windows. The price of a window is influenced by the frame and the profile, so the prices for a window with a relatively small surface are high. The best report is obtained in the case of the windows with squared windows with a perimeter of 6 meters or less.

The price displayed in the ads doesn’t contain VAT, and sometimes the transportation and the mounting are also “forgotten” by those companies. At the end, you will realize that the price of a window is almost double than the price stated in the commercial.

A real storm window manufacturer will only be able to give you the actual price of a job once all the aspects were considered. The windows must be measured by a representative of the company; you will have to talk all the details about the job, and to determine all other aspects. You should also need some time to see if the offer is good or not, and you should make your decision only after comparing the prices and services offered by a few companies.
