Making the Most of Your Window Consultation

Are your current windows old, leaky, or just don’t work the way they should? Or maybe you’re looking to transform your home with an entirely different window color or style. It’s time to talk with the experts.

One of the first steps in replacing your home’s windows is scheduling a consultation. A window consultation is a crucial step in ensuring that you select the right windows that will meet your needs and fit your budget. Prepping for a window consultation can help you make the most of the meeting and ensure that you get the most value for your investment.

In this blog post, we'll cover the steps you can take to prepare for a window consultation.

What is a Window Consultation?

A consultation with a window expert is an opportunity to discuss your needs and preferences, and to get advice on the best options for your home. A local independent retail partner will provide a complete consultation to determine your specific needs — including the style of your home, budget, and climate considerations. They will answer all your questions and provide a detailed, custom project quote based on your specifications.

Types of Consultations

At Infinity, we offer two types of consultations to make your replacement process even easier.

  • In-Home Consultation: Your local project consultant will meet with you in your home to discuss your needs and options.
  • Showroom Consultation: Meet with your project consultant at their showroom to see the depth and breadth of Infinity window and door options.

Infinity experts are eager to help no matter the location to ensure your replacement process is worry free!

Ways to Prepare for a Consultation?

Whether in-home or in the showroom, prepping for your window consultation is easy and helpful to ensure all of your needs are met.

  • What’s your goal? Think about why you are replacing your windows, and what you hope to achieve with the new ones. Are you looking to improve energy efficiency, enhance curb appeal, or reduce noise? Knowing your needs will help you communicate with the window expert and make the best decisions.
  • What types of windows do you like? There are many different types of windows available, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. Research the options ahead of time so you can ask questions during the consultation. Consider factors such as material, style, and energy efficiency ratings.
  • What’s your budget? Replacing your windows is an investment, so it's important to think about your budget before your consultation. Knowing how much you would like to spend will help you get to the right windows faster. Be sure to discuss your budget with your consultant and ask about offers and financing options.
  • What size windows do you have? Your local window expert will do the actual measurement, but it helps to know the rough sizes of your current windows before your consultation. This will give the window expert an idea of the size and type of windows you currently have and will help them recommend the best options for your home. Tip: Review our video, “How Do I Measure My Windows and Doors?” for a complete breakdown on how to easily measure your windows and doors.
  • What questions do you have? During your consultation, you will have the opportunity to ask questions and get expert advice. Prepare a list of questions ahead of time so you don't forget anything important. Some questions to consider include:
     
    • What type of windows do you recommend for my climate?
    • What style options do you offer?
    • What is the energy efficiency rating of the windows you recommend?
    • How long will the installation take?
    • What type of warranty do you offer on your windows?

Prepping for a window consultation is easy and will help you get the most out of your meeting. By knowing your needs, researching window styles, taking measurements, preparing questions, and clearing the space, you‘ll have no problem finding the right windows for your home.
