Transforming a New York City Home: Installing DERCHI Windows During Renovation

As a homeowner in New York City, I'm currently in the exciting renovation phase with new DERCHI windows being installed. Our project includes both their casement windows and lift-and-slide windows, and even though we're mid-process, the experience so far has been incredibly positive and worth sharing.

Why DERCHI for Our NYC Home?

Living in the city comes with unique challenges: street noise, temperature fluctuations, and the need for both security and natural light. We chose DERCHI after extensive research for their reputation in engineering precision and robust profiles, which seemed ideal for our urban environment.

Current Installation Experience:

The installation is underway by a local contractor closely following DERCHI's specifications. Here’s what stands out so far:

Professional Coordination: The process was well-coordinated. Clear measurements and schedules were established upfront.

Product Quality (First Impressions): Even before full installation, the build quality is evident. The window frames feel substantial, and the hardware operates smoothly.

Attention to Detail: The installers are meticulous, ensuring proper fitting and alignment, which is crucial for performance in our older building.

A Look at Our Choices:

Casement Windows: Selected for their superior airtight seal. We’ve already noticed a significant reduction in draft from the already-installed units, promising better climate control and noise reduction.

Lift-and-Slide Windows: We chose these for our main living area to eventually create a larger, seamless opening. The preliminary operation is impressively smooth, and we look forward to their full functionality once complete.

Early Verdict:

While our project is not yet finished, our confidence in DERCHI is already affirmed. The combination of their high-quality products and the professional installation team is ensuring a smooth process. For any NYC resident navigating a renovation and seeking reliable, high-performance windows, I can already recommend considering DERCHI based on the quality observed and the professional experience to date.

We look forward to sharing a final update once the installation is complete and we can fully enjoy the benefits of our new DERCHI windows.
