A bay window and a bow window are great additions to any home. They provide a unique look and feel while expanding the interior space.

We are happy to discuss which option would work best for your space.
The cost for bay or bow windows vary based on the specific type of window panels you select for your home. Details like low-E glass or laminated security glass impact cost and add function.
The installation cost may also vary based on the scope of the project. For example, replacing an existing window has a different price than expanding a standard window with a bay window.

What is the difference between builder-grade and replacement-grade windows?
303 Windows offers replacement-grade windows from Anlin, which provide superior durability, style, and longevity. Builder-grade windows are a cheaper, lower-quality form of vinyl window, which has given vinyl windows a bad reputation.
Builder-grade windows have thinner glass, do not offer UV protection, and provide no structural reinforcement. Their frames also tend to yellow, and they do not last as long as high-quality vinyl replacement windows.
Can vinyl windows be repaired?
It depends on the issue. If glass is broken or cracked, replacement glass may solve the problem. For low-quality windows or windows approaching 20 years or older, repairs intended to improve energy efficiency or function are less likely to be effective.
Window repairs can cost hundreds of dollars. We recommend scheduling a consultation for new windows before deciding on repairs because upgrading could provide more value than repairing old or low-quality windows.
When working with 303-WINDOWS, you receive the highest-quality vinyl windows installed accurately and safely. We ensure the proper seal and insulation needed for energy-efficient, long-lasting results.
What kind of maintenance do vinyl windows require?
Vinyl windows require little to no maintenance. They do not chip, peel, fade, or rot, and they do not require staining or painting. The window-frame color lasts for the life of the window.
We recommend regular window washing to remove dirt and debris and keep the glass pristine. Even dirty windows, however, continue to function and maintain energy efficiency.
Vinyl windows typically last 20 to 30 years, which is comparable to other window types and makes them a long-term investment.
Does homeowners insurance cover window replacement?
We always recommend that homeowners verify their specific policy. However, most homeowners insurance policies cover sudden window damage, such as damage from hail. Insurance generally does not cover replacement due to aging or normal wear and tear.
We work with you and your insurance company throughout the claims process. We can provide the necessary documentation and communicate with your insurance company when needed.
