Will there be dirt or dust from the install?

One of the most frequent questions asked and probably the toughest to answer is “how much”?
The reasons being is we are not just selling windows, but the installation too. There is not standard size of window or installation. Without looking at the job size, type of installation, type of window/options and carpentry work needed, there is no way to determine the cost.
