FAQs for Residential Home Builders
What are builder-grade windows?
Builder-grade windows, also known as contractor-grade, are standard windows designed for new construction and budget-friendly projects. These windows provide basic functionality and efficiency but may have limited customization options and simpler designs compared to premium models. Residential builders commonly use them for standard construction.
What is the life expectancy of builder-grade windows?
Builder-grade windows typically have a life expectancy of about 10 to 20 years. Their longevity can vary based on the material used, environmental conditions, and how well they’re maintained. Regular maintenance can help extend their lifespan, but they generally won’t last as long as higher-end window options for residential builders.
What brand of windows do residential home builders use?
Residential builders commonly use brands known for their reliability and that provide a range of options suitable for various needs. For example, MI Windows and Doors is a popular brand because we offer a variety of window materials, glass options, and grid styles. We cater to both budget projects and high-end construction with customizable features. We also back our products with a best-in-class warranty that builders and their customers love.
What are the best windows for builders?
The best windows for builders depend on the project’s requirements and budget. Vinyl windows are popular for their affordability and low maintenance, while fiberglass and wood offer greater durability and aesthetic appeal. Energy-efficient windows with double glazing and proper sealing are also excellent choices for enhancing building performance.
What windows last the longest?
Windows made from materials like fiberglass, vinyl, and aluminum typically last the longest. Fiberglass windows are known for their durability and resistance to weathering, while high-quality vinyl can last over 20 years with minimal maintenance. Aluminum windows also offer longevity and security. Residential home builders are well-versed in all of these materials.
