Upgrading your windows is one of the most effective ways to improve your home's energy efficiency, especially during the winter months. Aging or damaged windows are often a significant source of heat loss, allowing cold air to infiltrate your home and forcing your heating system to work harder. This results in higher energy bills and reduced comfort. Modern energy-efficient windows, such as those with double or triple glazing and Low-E coatings, provide superior insulation by minimizing heat transfer and preventing drafts. Key indicators that your windows may need replacement include persistent drafts, condensation or fogging between panes, difficulty operating the windows, or visible signs of wear such as cracks or rotting frames. By replacing outdated windows, you can lower utility costs, maintain a comfortable indoor environment, and enhance the overall value and aesthetic of your home. Window replacement is not just an upgrade; it’s a strategic investment in energy efficiency and long-term savings.
If you’re considering replacing your windows, our family-owned company in the Quad Cities is here to help. With 57 years of experience, we’ve built a reputation for quality, reliability, and exceptional customer service.

A post about the best airport in the world! I haven’t lived in the QC for many years, but have nothing but great memories and kind words to say about this airport, the people of the QC, and the community in which I am proud to have grown up. (Edit to correct a typo. Be well!)

Either side of the river is fine. I’m not sure if I want it catered or if I will be bringing my own food yet. I guess it depends on the various options available.
Edit: Thanks so much for the great suggestions! I wasn't aware of many of these places.

Hi!
I got an offer both from Trinity & Genesis as a new grad RN. For those who worked in both hospitals, which one is better?
Thank you!
My husband and I signed a contract and offer for a house on 11/6/24. Our closing date is 12/19/24. So we recently had to pay for an Appraisal....does this mean we are most likely going to get approved by the lender? We paid for the Appraisal mid last week. How long does this process usually take? And if anyone wants the best recommendation for a Realtor to either sell your home or if your looking for your 1st home....we have found the best one I swear! His name is Eric Ryden....from The Ryden Team- their office is called Quad City Iowa Realty! He is amazing. He has a lender he works with and the entire process is very smooth. And he tells it like he sees it! He knows the ins and outs of everything. If you call him tell him the Grabers referred you. 😁

I need one piece of black acrylic 1/8" x 15.25" x 5.25".
Or should I call it "K BUILDI - TH APITO EATR"
So what's the deal with this thing? They put a ton of work in to the building but I've been watching the sign not correctly work for years. Has to be a backstory to this. Anyone have any details?
Between that sign not working, and the Davenport Bank Building not lighting the top of the building, downtown is missing some things that really make it look a lot better at night
Hi fellow QC Redditors
Just a reminder that the CPKC Holiday Train will be rolling through Davenport tomorrow the 27th at 6:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. It'll be down there by the Freight house at Western and West River Drive. Bring a healthy food donation or make a monetary donation. All money helps our local food banks. American Authors and KT Tunstall will be performing. It's a lot of fun if you have never experienced it. It draws quite a crowd as well. It's a great event for everyone and a great way to get ready and fired up for the Holidays. Here's a link:
