The Good

  • Simple Process
  • Window Shopping App
  • TruScene Insect Screens

Simple Process

Consumers will find that Renewal by Andersen keeps things simple with its process:

  • Design consultation — Customers can choose from an in-home or no-contact virtual meeting. During this meeting, homeowners can discuss their current needs and style preferences and bring up any concerns. 
  • Measure and manufacture new windows — A project technician will verify that everything lines up and answer any last-minute questions. 
  • Window installation — The company will send a team of professionals to begin installing the windows. The company ensures customer homes are treated with respect and promises that the team will clean up after they are done. 

Renewal by Andersen offers a reasonably extensive limited warranty that protects consumers if the windows don’t function properly. 

Window Shopping App

One of the biggest questions homeowners have when it comes to new windows is, “Will it look good in my home?” 

To help answer this question, Renewal by Andersen makes it simple to test out all the different product lines, styles, and options. 

Via a mobile phone or tablet, homeowners can easily design a window with Renewal by Andersen’s augmented reality tool. Consumers choose the exterior, interior, and hardware color they prefer and a grille pattern. Once you have designed your ideal window, you can easily use the AR tool and view it in your home. This should help give consumers a good idea of what their new windows will look like once installed. 

TruScene Insect Screens

TruScene Insect Screens by Andersen is made from a micro-fine stainless steel mesh about a third of the diameter of standard screen wire. This screen efficiently keeps bugs out while leaving your view unobstructed. 

Renewal by Andersen boasts that this screen offers 50 percent more clarity than its standard insect screens. Or, in simpler terms, it’s nearly invisible.

The Bad

  • Undisclosed Pricing 

Undisclosed Pricing 

Renewal by Andersen doesn’t disclose window pricing information on its website. To receive information on pricing for the products and services you want to purchase, you need to schedule an appointment for a free consultation. The consultant will give you an estimate of the charges you might face when using Renewal by Andersen.

Several consumers mentioned pricing in their reviews. The overall consensus seemed that Renewal by Andersen was average with pricing. Consumers felt that the windows were of excellent quality and even saved them money on their utility bills, but it wasn’t the cheapest option on the market.

Its Me Me Westtown, NY

The windows look good, but they fog up inside and are no better than Lowes windows which are much less expensive. They are not worthy of the Andersen name, or what Andersen used to stand for anyway. Chase that quality and price to the basement.

Maya My McDonough, GA

Renewal never let me schedule an appointment. I asked for a Thursday or Friday appointment but I was told there were none available. I did not want to proceed further since they weren't flexible enough to cohere to a potential customers schedule.

All I can say is they are very persistent!! My husband inquired literally just inquired he told them that he would be back in touch with them. But since then they have blown his phone up and when they couldn't get ahold of him they actually called his WORK!!! That's a little much and that takes some balls!! But because they were so demanding we decided to go with a company that let us tell them what we wanted not the other way around.

Very high to replace a single living room window or the remaining house windows.

Windows are decent, but if you have a problem with one don't think the "lifetime" warranty will be any good. I've been stalled, left on hold for multiple hours on the phone, ignored, and straight up lied to about someone coming to look at the issue.
