CertainTeed Windows were once a relatively large player in the replacement window industry. Then, in 2011, CertainTeed announced that MI Windows would be manufacturing all of their window series. This was probably for the best as many installers and industry insiders felt there was little consistency to the over quality of the product. Browse below to check out our CertainTeed Windows reviews.
Company Rating: 7.5 out of 10
Price Point: 6.5 out of 10
Bottom Line: CertainTeed Windows still exist – they are simply a relabeled window from another brand. I would be wary about getting a bid on a relabeled window, unless the sales person was VERY upfront about what series I was actually buying.
(Always collect 3 to 4 additional bids)

Certainteed Replacement Windows
Today, Certainteed is owned by a French company, Saint Gobain. They make building supplies used in vinyl siding and roofing projects. They no longer make Certainteed replacement windows.
Prior to their purchase in 2011, their lineup included the following window series: BrynMawr III, Devon II, New Castle III, and the New Bridge II. For unbiased opinions of this company’s products, see our page on Certainteed windows reviews page.
Certainteed Windows Warranty
The company offered a limited lifetime warranty that covered manufacturing defects for the original owner. If the owner sold their home, the warranty was in effect for 20 years from the date of installation. As with any window warranty, always read it in its entirety to be sure you understand what it covers and what is does not cover.
SureStart Protection: 5 years on materials and labor for defective products.
For those homeowners trying to get relief from CertainTeed on warranty issues, you can try contacting MI, or a local MI dealer. In all likelihood, you will be hard pressed to get any warranty help. This is not ideal, but that is the way these buyouts tend to go.
