Choosing the Best Windows

Living on the coast means your home is subject to sun, salt, wind and rain. Fiberglass frames are an excellent option for this ever-changing conditions, as they are very durable and have a tensile strength similar to steel. Also, because they are made from glass fibers, the frames expand and contract at approximately the same rate as the insulated glass they hold. With these benefits in mind, the homeowner decided on Milgard® Ultra™ Series windows.  Ultra Series also has a contemporary style that is very low maintenance.
