Window Replacement/ Tax Credit Qualified

March 7th, 2010 by babcock 92 comments »

Babcock Residential Group can now provide and install highly energy efficient replacement windows across North Georgia, including Ellijay, Canton, Jasper, and Woodstock for as low as $250 per unit.

These windows from Moss Supply Co. are a high quality, vinyl double or single hung unit.  They meet the requirements for the Federal Tax Credit for energy efficient home improvements- 30% of materials up to $1500.

The windows are maintenance free, never requiring any paint, and come with matching screens.  They reach the stringent guidelines for the tax credit with a U-Factor of 0.3 with a Low-E film and Argon gas between the panes.

Read some of what Moss Suppy says on there website:

Duralite spacers provide your Ashland Series 4400 with third party tested performance that will save you over up to $205 a year [based on 16 windows] in heat and cooling cost compared to high performance windows using metal spacers. Not only will the energy savings  go into your pocket, but you will have less impact on our world. 

Duralite reduces the average house’s contribution of CO2 production by almost up to 1600 lbs. (730 Kg). Calculations based on RESFEN 5.0 modeling used in “Calculations for Energy Savings used in Envirosealed Windows™ presentations” September 2007. 

In short, if every home in America had Duralite Warm Edge Spacer we could save the environment over 58 million tons of CO2 pollution.

Let BRG come out today for a free, no obligation quote, before the tax credit expires by the end of this year.

Historic window restoration

November 8th, 2009 by babcock 22 comments »

Babcock residential group is currently working on the restoration of house built in the mid 1800’s.  It is located near the historic Mossy Creek Campground which was established in 1833 just south of Cleveland, Georgia.  We have completely refurbished the windows with wood restoration and repair, new glazing, replacement glass-where warranted, and new paint.
