At Window Nation, we know replacement windows. We’re third-generation window replacement experts who have been lucky to provide homeowners replacement windows, siding, and doors for over fifteen years. We opened our first showroom in Maryland in 2006, quickly growing to serve homeowners in cities across the country – and we’re not stopping there. We’re grateful for every homeowner who has trusted us to upgrade their most important asset: their home. We’ve learned a lot about home improvement over the years, but the most important thing we learned isn’t about window replacement. We learned the home improvement industry isn’t about offering the best windows, siding and doors; it’s about the relationships we build with our customers.
"The installer was very professional and efficient. The job was finished in approximately three and half hours and he neat and cleaned up very well. We were quite pleased with the job and would recommend them."

"New Look was amazing! We initially met Jason at the Pittsburgh Home Renovation fair. He came to our home to provide a quote and show us options and we couldn’t have been happier. He even located the exact match to the siding that had been completed on a newer section of our house. Jason was very kind and extremely patient as I labored over color choices. Once we settled on a selection, the installation team came and did a fabulous job! Everything was clean-lined, well appointed and thorough. I am SO happy with our new siding!- I make sure I show it off to all of our visiting guests and family! Couldn’t be happier!- communication, expertise, good work. New Look was the complete package."

The measurement and ordering process was very low pressure and the windows were delivered and installed on schedule. The installation crew was professional and clean and did high quality work.

"This company did a sales pitch by knocking on doors in our neighborhood. I unfortunately opend the door and talked to the lady and made the mistake of giving her my number for possible future renovations. The next day I received a call asking to set up an appointment. I said I was not interested at the moment, if I needed their services in the future I would contact them. This company has been harassing me by phone ever since. I've received 16 calls in a 10 days. If this company is an established reputable business then they should not need to knock on doors and harass people for business. Tell tale sign that something is definitely wrong with this business."

Shiplap comes in a variety of price points. The most cost-effective form is plywood, which you can buy in sheets for an average of $30 each. However, shiplap can be a bit more expensive than drywall. If cost is an issue, consider installing shiplap on an accent wall and covering the other three walls with drywall.
In many cases, you may be able to install shiplap over drywall. It’s important to prep the wall before installing shiplap. Typically, contractors locate the wall studs and attach the shiplap boards directly to the existing drywall using construction adhesive or finishing nails. However, pros usually recommend removing the existing drywall to expose the studs for the best results. This allows for a more secure and flush installation.
Both horizontal and vertical shiplap can offer stunning visual appeal, but each type creates a different effect. Horizontal shiplap is the classic choice, traditionally helping rooms feel wider and more expansive, such as in living areas and bedrooms. By comparison, vertical shiplap can create an illusion of added height, making ceilings appear taller for a more dramatic touch. The best choice depends on your room’s architecture, design style, and personal preference.
