Damaged Windows Needed a Lot of Work

When we went out to our atrium (otherwise known as a "sunroom") one of the first things we noticed was all the windows that had been damaged by the last storm we had. There were hurricane-force winds that came upon all this older glass we had in our atrium, and there was no way that it would ever hold up under the full blasts of it.

We called a window replacement company Window Outfitters, Inc. to get an estimate on getting the windows replaced. One of the things that the representative mentioned was that we would have a lot of glass flying around and it could end up a real mess because of that if we would do all these windows ourselves. We got an estimate on what it would cost to replace then decided to do things ourselves to save money. We learned "the hard way" what the man mentioned was true about glass flying around all over the place. Even years later we are still seeing glass pieces on the ground and driveway nearby.
