Welcome to my website. My name’s Jack. My wife, three children, and I live in a large old home. Two winters ago we realized that cold air was getting in around the edges of our windows. That spring we had insects finding their way into our house. I knew we probably needed new windows, but our budget was tight, so I bought new weather stripping instead. Well, the next winter rolled around, and we still had problems with cold getting in. After much discussion, my wife and I decided we needed to get new windows. Not only was I pleasantly surprised at the cost, but I was also shocked at the savings we’ve had on our heating and air conditioning bills. I’m going to share more about the benefits we have reaped from getting new windows. I hope what I have to share will help you with your decisions.
