Why homeowners can't usually just buy Harvey
Harvey sells through distribution partners that mostly serve contractors, so walking in and buying a few Tribute double hungs as a homeowner isn't always simple. Big-box stores carry their own window brands, not Harvey. That leaves a lot of homeowners paying a full installed price when all they wanted was the product.
Window Inserts orders Harvey for our own installs every week. We can quote and order the exact Harvey windows and doors you want and send them straight to your house, whether your own contractor is installing them or you are.
When buying the windows yourself makes sense
It works well when you already have a contractor you trust who's doing other work on the house, like a renovation, an addition or new siding, and you'd rather pick and buy the windows yourself. It also works for experienced DIYers replacing a handful of units, and for anyone who wants to own the decision about which Harvey line goes where.
If you'd rather have it handled start to finish, we install Harvey too. You can request a quote on the product only, or a free estimate on the whole job, and compare.
Help choosing the right Harvey line
Harvey makes several lines and the differences matter. Tribute is the flagship vinyl window with a more traditional profile. Classic is Harvey's most popular vinyl window, a dependable everyday choice. Slimline gives you the slimmest frame and the most glass at the most accessible price. Majesty is aluminum clad on the outside with real pine inside, for homes where vinyl isn't the right look.
Tell us about your house and budget on the form and we'll recommend a line, or quote two options side by side so you can see the difference in black and white.
Measuring: the step that makes or breaks the order
Custom windows are built to the size you order, so the measurement has to be right. If you're inside our service area in Westchester, Putnam or Fairfield County, check the measuring box and a Window Inserts tech will come out, measure every opening and turn it into the order. If you're measuring yourself, read our guide on how to measure replacement windows first, and we'll double-check your numbers before anything is ordered.
A note on installation and warranty
Harvey backs its products with its own warranty, and like every window manufacturer it expects the windows to be installed correctly. If someone other than Window Inserts installs your windows, the installation itself is on them. Make sure whoever installs knows what they're doing, and keep your paperwork. We're happy to answer installation questions either way.
