I have not had a negative reaction yet as I believe most understand. I implemented an extra 25 cents per grid charge for the handling and in the sub division I speak of I verbally tell the customer that the homes in their area have problems with older/fragile grids and I tell them I will work diligently but cannot be responsible for defective grids. However the sub division that I spoke of is notorious for having those ones that have aged beyond good use and I have to be extra cautious with those. Then I work the left side from top to bottom in place and then delicately bow the middle to get those last ones in place on the right.
(mostly for my employees) I put the bottom snap in place first and then bow it out slightly and put the top snap in place.
Replacing the grid back in it’s proper position after cleaning the window is sometimes a challenge. We have learned over time that it is important to put these grids back in the window they were removed from (like screens) as they may have been attached to a window that has settled over time and slightly warped itself thus causing the grid to have a slight slant to it. The best way I have found to delicately remove them is to grap the grid directly in the middle and bow it out gently to remove them. (a few exceptions) Because the homes are getting on in age we run into many that are fragile.
#DIY WINDOW GRIDS WINDOWS#
There is a sub division of homes that I service regularly that has 25-30 year old homes with Anderson windows with the interior “snap-in” grids in all of them.
