Our warranty stands out for several reasons: First, it is one of the most comprehensive warranties in the window and door replacement industry. Unlike many competitiors who offer limited coverage periods or restrict what is covered, Renewal by Andersen backs products with an industry-leading 20 year transferable limited warranty.
The warranty is backed by Andersen Corporation, our parent company with over a century of experience and a strong reputation for quality. This history means the warranty is supported by solid financial stabilty and a commitment to customer satisfaction.
Other replacement window and door companies may offer shorter warranties or require complicated claims processes. Renewal by Andersen's warranty is straightforward and backed by professional service from our certified master installers to our design consultants who understand our products inside and out. The warranty is fully transferable to new homeowners, enhancing resale value and providing peace of mind for future owners.
Precision fit is crucial for window and door performance and warranty reliability. Renewal by Andersen replacement windows and doors are custom-made to order, based on exact measurements of your Kentucky/Southern Indiana home. This custom approach ensures a precise fit, unlike one-size-fits-all window replacements that can leave gaps or cause stress on frames.
A proper fit helps prevent common issues such as air leaks, water intrusion, and frame warping. These problems often lead to warranty claims with other manufacturers. Because Renewal by Andersen replacement windows and doors are tailored to your home, there is less risk of these problems arising.
When windows and doors fit well from the start, they perform better and last longer, reducing the likelihood of warranty claims. This custom manufacturing is a key reason Renewal by Andersen can confidently offer such a strong warranty.
Renewal by Andersen uses an exclusive material called Fibrex®, our proprietary patented composite designed to outlast both wood and vinyl. Fibrex® is twice as strong as vinyl, resists warping, peeling, cracking, and corrosion, and performs exceptionally well in Kentucky and Southern Indiana’s hot summers and cold winters. In fact, we have 35 patents behind this material — and we back it with our 20-year warranty because we are that confident in it.
Renewal by Andersen offers professional, start-to-finish service. This means we handle design consultation, measurement, manufacturing, and installation without subcontractors.
