Installer Certifications

To guarantee proper installation of our windows and doors, LAS sends all of our lead installers to the window Installation Masters Certification Program. All instructor candidates go through a five-day, comprehensive training course. This training course consists of two days of learning installer material and one day learning teaching techniques. The details of the training program include; design consideration, types of windows, types of doors, new construction installation, replacement window installation, and codes/standards/specifications. A final examination of 168 questions is then taken, with a passing score no less than 90%.

Benefits of certified Installation Masters Installers:

Fewer call-backs due to poor installation
Less long-term liability due to water intrusion
Improved energy efficiency
Improved owner satisfaction

Did you know?

Manufacturers spend hundreds of thousands of dollars in field service costs every year fixing complaints about:
- Air/water infiltration
- Window and door operation
- Condensation and sound resistance
- Damage due to improper handling and storage
Millions of BTU’s of energy are wasted every year due to improperly installed products.
Millions of dollars are awarded through litigation as a result of faulty installation.

Each installer certification lasts for a period of up to 4 years and all certified window installation masters receive a certificate and photo ID card. With this proof of training, you can rest assured of your installer’s knowledge of the industry’s best installation practices and ability to apply that knowledge in the field.

Julia,
On behalf of Lighthouse Louisiana (formerly The Lighthouse for the Blind), please convey my thanks once again to your coworkers for supporting our summer camp for children who are blind. It is a rare thing to see a corporate family like yours, where people get together and give from their own hard-earned paychecks to local groups that are doing good work in the community. As donors, sometimes it’s hard to know what donations to organizations we care about are actually being used for. We consider LAS an important investor in our work, and we cannot thank you enough for helping us serve our clients.

Thank you,
Erin McQuade Wright
Director of Development

We just finished getting new windows from LAS and I can’t be any happier. From start to finish, this job was done professionally. The salesman, Garrett, came to the house on time and explained the windows and the process and answered any questions that we had at the time. He indicated the person who would do the measurements would call and set up an appointment within two weeks and the the windows would be built and installed in about 5 weeks. Well, the job – from the initial estimate to complete install – was three weeks. The installed that completed the job did an excellent job of install, caulking and cleanup. We can’t give them a higher rating. The most amazing thing so far is the look and how much it has cut down on outside noise. I highly recommend LAS and since they are local, from repairs to employing people, we keep it right here at home. We are very satisfied customers.
