Window & Screened Porch FAQ | Window Kings of South Carolina

Question 1

How long does a window installation take?

Accepted Answer

Once your windows arrive, most residential installations take one to two days depending on the number of windows. A typical single-window replacement can be completed in under an hour. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your home.

Question 2

How long will it take to get my windows ordered and installed?

Accepted Answer

After your free quote and order confirmation, most window manufacturers have a lead time of approximately 3 weeks for delivery. Once your windows arrive, we schedule your installation promptly — so from the time you place your order to the day we complete the job, you can typically expect around 3 to 4 weeks total. We will keep you updated every step of the way.

Question 3

What types of windows do you install?

Accepted Answer

We install single-hung, double-hung, casement, sliding, bay, bow, picture, and specialty-shape windows. We also install storm windows and impact-rated windows designed for coastal South Carolina weather.

Question 4

Do you offer impact or storm windows for hurricane protection?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We install impact-rated and storm windows that meet South Carolina building codes for coastal areas. These windows provide protection from high winds and flying debris while also improving energy efficiency.

Question 5

What is included in your lifetime warranty?

Accepted Answer

Our lifetime warranty covers materials on the windows we install. We stand behind our workmanship and will address any installation-related issues. Ask us for full warranty details when you request your free quote.

Question 6

Do you use subcontractors?

Accepted Answer

No. Every installation is handled directly by our own team — no subcontractors, no surprises. You get the same experienced crew from the initial measurement through the final inspection.

Question 7

How do I know when it is time to replace my windows?

Accepted Answer

Common signs include drafts around the frame, difficulty opening or closing, condensation between panes, visible damage or rot, and noticeably higher energy bills. If your windows are more than 20 years old, a free inspection can help you decide.

Question 8

Do you serve commercial properties?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We provide commercial window services for offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and other businesses across the Grand Strand. Contact us to discuss your project scope and timeline.

Question 9

Is financing available for window replacement?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer flexible financing options through HFS Financial so you can move forward with your project without paying everything upfront. Ask about financing when you request your free quote.

Question 10

How long does it take to build a screened porch?

Accepted Answer

Most screened porch installations are completed in one to three days depending on the size and complexity of the project. We handle everything from the initial measurement to the final inspection.

Question 11

What screened porch packages do you offer?

Accepted Answer

We offer five packages: the Essential Screened Porch, Panoramic Screened Porch, Pet-Friendly Screened Porch, Privacy Porch, and Three-Season Porch. Each is designed for a different lifestyle need. Visit our Porch Packages page for full details.

Question 12

Do you offer pet-resistant screen options?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our Pet-Friendly Screened Porch package uses durable pet-resistant lower mesh combined with a chair rail, kick plate, and optional integrated pet door. It is designed to resist scratching and accidental damage from dogs and cats.

Question 13

What is a Three-Season Porch?

Accepted Answer

A Three-Season Porch uses clear four-track vinyl panels with insect screening and a matching storm/screen door. You can open the panels for ventilation or close them for protection from wind, rain, pollen, and cooler temperatures — extending your porch's usable season without creating a fully insulated room.

Question 14

Can a screened porch help with South Carolina insects?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. South Carolina's coastal climate brings mosquitoes, no-see-ums, and other insects that make outdoor living uncomfortable. A properly screened porch lets you enjoy the coastal breeze year-round without the bugs.

Question 15

Do screened porches come with a warranty?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our screened porch installations carry the same lifetime warranty on materials as our window work. We build every porch to last in the South Carolina coastal environment.

Question 16

Can I add a pet door to my screened porch?

Accepted Answer

Yes. An integrated pet door is available as an option on our Pet-Friendly Screened Porch package and can also be added to other packages. Ask us about pet door sizing and placement when you request your quote.
