From Cloverdale cottages to new builds in Eastchase, Montgomery homeowners know that windows are more than a view to the outside world—they regulate energy bills, curb appeal, and storm resilience. The humid subtropical climate and frequent spring thunderstorms create unique demands on frame materials, glazing options, and installation methods. That is why residential contractors across the River Region rely on CountBricks to deliver swift, accurate, and fully documented estimates for every Montgomery windows project.
• Unpredictable material pricing that changes daily
• Manual blueprint takeoffs that eat up evenings and weekends
• Inconsistent labor rates between neighborhood crews
• Homeowners requesting three or more quote revisions before signing
Each of these pain points cuts into profit margins. CountBricks.com eliminates them with real-time voice estimating, AI-powered material databases, and automated quote generation tailored to local Montgomery codes.
Step onto the jobsite, open the CountBricks mobile app, and describe what you see. “Eight 36 x 60 double-hung vinyl replacements on the front elevation, low-E glass, bronze exterior.” The platform converts your words into a structured line item list in seconds.
Upload a PDF of the homeowner’s current plan set. The AI detects window schedules, counts openings, and tags each unit by size and type. No more manual clicking—just verify, adjust if needed, and move on.
CountBricks pulls Montgomery-specific material pricing, factoring regional delivery fees and Alabama sales tax. Labor rates reflect current averages for licensed residential carpenters in Montgomery County. The result is a live cost model you can trust.
Click “Generate.” A polished proposal appears with:
• Scope of work and timeline
• Itemized materials list
• Labor breakdown
• Warranty language compliant with Alabama Home Builders Licensure Board
• Electronic signature fields
• Vinyl: Budget-friendly and moisture-resistant; ideal for rental renovations
• Fiberglass: Expands and contracts minimally in Montgomery’s temperature swings, offering premium energy performance
• Wood Clad: Historic districts often require a wood exterior; factory-applied aluminum cladding protects against rot
• Low-E Argon: Reflects infrared heat, cutting summer cooling costs
• Impact-Rated Laminated Glass: Recommended for homes along the Alabama River where wind-borne debris is common
• Triple Pane: Best for homeowners prioritizing noise reduction near I-85
Bronze-finished hardware pairs well with Montgomery’s prevalent earth-tone palettes. For insect control during mild winters, full-view screens with stainless mesh withstand humidity better than standard aluminum.
1. Verify rough opening dimensions against AI takeoff data
2. Remove existing sashes and inspect framing for moisture intrusion

5. Seal perimeter with low-expansion foam and backer rod

• Schedule deliveries before 10 a.m. to avoid afternoon thunderstorms that can delay setting units
