Skinny On Windows with Josh Hocker of Morgan’s Installers
A professional window installer outlines window brands he likes and recommends, and even shares a Pro Tip on how homeowners can calculate a rough estimate on the cost of replacing their windows. All on this episode of Skinny On The Home!
Proper windows, correctly installed, are crucial to a home’s integrity. When windows are bad, you can have hidden rot and mold. But the options in windows can be overwhelming. How do you know what kind to buy? What kind of cost are you talking? Are there ways to know if your windows need to be replaced? And what in the world is pocket replacement versus full frame replacement? Does one cost more than the other? To answer all these questions, Jimmy “Skinny” McKinney of J&R Construction Services, Inc., hosts Josh Hocker of Morgan’s Installers. Together, they help homeowners sort through window options, installation specifics and estimating costs.
