Meet Brian Wymer, owner of JB Contracting! 👋

Brian sat down to answer a few questions about who we are, how we work, and what homeowners should know before starting a project.

Give it a watch, and let us know in the comments: what's one question you'd want to ask a contractor? 👇

Small savings today. Big savings over time.

It's no secret that costs keep going up, and energy is one of the biggest. Electricity prices have climbed 36% in the last five years, and they're expected to keep rising.

Here's something many homeowners don't realize: up to 30% of your home's heating and cooling energy is lost or gained through your windows. (U.S. Department of Energy)

In northern climates like ours, replacing 10 old single-pane windows with ENERGY STAR certified windows can save an average of about $568 a year on heating and cooling.

That might not seem like much at first. But look at how it adds up 👆
✅ 5 years: about $3,000
✅ 10 years: about $6,500
✅ 15 years: more than $10,000

And as energy prices rise, the savings grow with them.

We install Climate Solutions windows throughout the Twin Cities metro and surrounding areas. If your windows are drafty, foggy, or just getting old, send us a message. We're happy to answer questions and help you figure out what makes sense for your home.

*Estimates assume energy prices rise 3% a year. Savings vary by home and windows replaced.

This is what water damage looks like when it's been left to do its work.

What should be solid is soft, crumbling, and falling apart in your hand. Most of the time, it starts with something small: a gap that wasn't sealed, flashing that was skipped, or a shortcut nobody could see once the job was done.

Hiring the wrong contractor can cost a lot more than the original job. Here's what can go wrong:

🔸 Poor sealing and flashing let water in behind the surface, where it causes rot you won't see for years
🔸 Hidden moisture can lead to mold and damaged framing
🔸 Gaps and bad installation mean drafts, higher energy bills, and an uncomfortable home
🔸 Improper installation can void manufacturer warranties
🔸 No permits can mean failed inspections and trouble when you sell
🔸 An uninsured contractor can leave you responsible if something goes wrong
🔸 And too often, homeowners end up paying twice: once for the job, and again to have it fixed

Whoever you hire, it's worth asking:
✅ Are you licensed and insured?
✅ Will you pull the required permits?
✅ What warranty do you offer on your work?
✅ Can I see reviews or talk to past customers?

A few questions up front can save you years of headaches down the road. Your home is one of your biggest investments, and it deserves to be protected.

Have you ever had to fix someone else's shortcut? We'd love to hear your story in the comments. 👇

Tired of High Energy Bills in Minnesota & Iowa? Your Old Windows Could Be The Reason.
Living in Minnesota & Iowa, we pay for two extreme seasons. And if your windows are 15+ years old, single-pane, or drafty — you're overpaying in both.

Here's what most homeowners don't know:

Up to 30% of your heating and cooling energy escapes through your windows. Old windows have almost no insulation, so your furnace works overtime in a -20° winter, and your AC can't keep up in a 90° humid summer.

Replacing them with Climate Solutions Windows, which are ENERGY STAR® certified. Energy-efficient windows change everything from:

✓ Cuts energy loss through your windows by up to 50%
✓ Lowers your overall heating & cooling bills by an average of 12-15% - That's $101 to $583 per year for most homes, with Minnesota & Iowa homes at the top of that range due to our cold climate
✓ No more drafts, frost on the inside of the glass, or hot/cold rooms
✓ Keeps heat IN during winter, and heat OUT during summer thanks to Low-E coating

If you have to use plastic film in the winter, feel a draft from 2 feet away, or your bills spike every November - it's time for an upgrade.

We help Minnesota & Iowa homeowners replace old windows with high-performance windows built specifically for our climate — so you save money every single month, winter and summer.

Keeping your home in top shape year-round protects your investment and saves you money down the road. Here are a few quick tips to stay ahead of the game:

Winter: Check for drafts around windows/doors, insulate exposed pipes, and clean gutters before ice dams form.

Spring: Inspect your roof for winter damage, service your HVAC system, and check the foundation for cracks after freeze-thaw cycles.

Summer: Seal driveway cracks, clean deck/patio surfaces, and check exterior caulking around windows and doors.

Fall: Clean gutters (again!), inspect weatherstripping, and get your furnace serviced before the cold hits.

A little maintenance each season goes a long way toward avoiding costly repairs later.

As the weather cools down, our homes become the heart of family time again — game nights, warm dinners, and cozy evenings together. Before it gets too chilly, take a few minutes to make sure your windows are keeping your family comfortable:

Check the seals – Run your hand around the frame. A draft here means the kids' rooms could be colder than you think.

Inspect the caulking – Cracked or peeling caulk lets cold air creep in right where your family spends the most time.

Clean the tracks – A quick clean now helps windows close snugly, keeping warm air in and cold air out all season.

Test your locks – Locking windows pulls them tighter for a better seal, plus extra peace of mind for the whole household.

Look for condensation between panes – This is a sign the seal has failed, which can mean colder rooms and higher energy bills for your family.

A little care now means a warmer, cozier home for the people who matter most. If your windows are drafty, foggy, or due for an upgrade, JB Contracting proudly installs Climate Solutions Windows — designed to keep your family comfortable all year round.

Give us a call today to schedule your free estimate and get your home ready for the season ahead.
