ABOUT US
Sun and Sound Windows is proud to serve the Houston/Galveston, Austin and Dallas/Fort Worth metropolitan areas.
Soundproof any room in your home or office with our noise reduction window inserts. Imagine blocking up to 75% of low-pitched noise (big trucks, A/C compressors, etc.) and up to 95% of high-pitched noise (bus brakes, pool pumps, etc.).
SOUND RATINGS
Our sound reduction values use the Sound Transmission Class (STC) scale, which tests a series of low to high frequencies at the same loudness to find an average.
Our soundproof window inserts have an STC rating of 42 if you have an existing single-pane window and 48 if you have an existing double-pane window.
OPERATING INSERT - SLIDES UP/DOWN OR LEFT/RIGHT
This insert is the most convenient for those who frequently open the windows on the noisy side of the building, though it is the most expensive because it has moving parts. It’s slightly less effective than our other styles simply because the sliding part of the window must be free to move.
SINGLE-PIECE INSERT - REMOVABLE SINGLE PANEL
This insert is the most effective and least expensive because it has no moving parts. It is the best choice for those who rarely open the windows on the noisy side of the building and want the maximum sound reduction.
TWO-PIECE INSERT - REMOVABLE DUAL PANELS
This insert is a cross between the operating insert and the single panel. It’s the best choice for those who occasionally open the windows on the noisy side of the building.
WHERE ARE OUR SOUNDPROOF WINDOW INSERTS MADE?
We’re a Texas company that manufactures and installs only in Texas. We service residential and commercial properties in all major Texas metro areas – Houston, Austin, Dallas, Ft. Worth – and areas nearby.
SOUNDPROOF WINDOWS COST
Pricing depends on the size, volume, existing window treatments, shape and installation. Our soundproof windows cost between $22 and $58 per square foot, including installation and tax. For example, three six-foot by three-foot soundproof window inserts are approximately 9% less per insert than just one. Arched windows are about 15% more expensive than rectangular windows because they take much more time to cut and install.
The cost for commercial soundproof window inserts vary even more (both lower and higher). For example, window volumes and sizes are usually much higher than residential applications, reducing prices significantly. However, it may be more difficult to access windows, driving prices higher. Our hotel installations are a good example of this, i.e. they have many large windows, yet limited access to available rooms.
INSTALLATION AND TIMING
In most cases we can install your soundproof window inserts within two-three weeks of receiving your 50% down payment. They usually install in one to two days, depending on volume and accessibility.
FREE ESTIMATES AND QUOTES
We provide free, no-obligation estimates via phone or email and free, no-obligation fixed quotes based on on-site measurements. The first step is the estimate. Just email or call us with some basic information:
- In which Texas city do you live?
- What are the approximate sizes of your window openings? All we need is the size to the nearest foot – for example, 3’x5′ or 3’x6′.
- Do any of the windows have arches or special shapes?
- What type of interior window treatments do you have?
- How many windows are affected by sound?
- In what type of building are you located? (house, high-rise, apartment, etc.)
- How often do you open your windows on the noisy side of the room?
We’ll provide you with an estimate based on your information. Then you can decide if you wish us to visit your home to get a fixed quote. It usually takes about half an hour to measure your windows, assess installation needs and show you samples. We can usually send you the fixed quote within 24 hours of our visit.
