A window sill is an attractive feature that emphasizes a window and gives it a finished look. Whether you are in the construction business or the retail world, a selection of the best window sills is ideal to meet your needs for both window sill replacement and window sill installation projects. Your customers will appreciate your attention to detail and their gratitude will be evident in the success of your business.

While selecting the right window sills for your on-hand stock may be a challenge, a varied inventory will boost your sales and your customers' satisfaction rate. For builders, contractors, hardware stores and home improvement shops it's important to keep a variety of options available to meet each customer's unique taste. When choosing window sills for your business, consider the following:

1. Interior window sills are primarily made of three basic materials: wood, stone and PVC.

2. The best window sills are weather resistant or waterproof.

3. The depth and style of a window sill can vary greatly.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Carry different varieties of window sills


Wood is the traditional material for window sills, but today, manufacturers also make them out of stone and synthetic materials like PVC. There are even marble window sills and concrete window sill projects. Your customers may choose a wood window sill for a touch of classic charm, a stone sill for a bit of elegance or a PVC sill for its durability. Whether you're constructing new houses or you cater to those in real estate via a home improvement store, stock wood, stone and synthetic window sills to cater to different tastes.

I recommend: TheWindowSills.com by Stonexchange offers a wide selection of beautiful stone window sills. Available in a variety of sizes, they are great for any home or building utilizing stone as an element for interior decoration. Castia Stone, Inc. offers window sills that protect homes from mold and dry rot while also providing your customers with increased value and charm. By becoming an authorized distributor, you get an exclusive product that not only looks good, but also offers added protection on new construction jobs or during client renovations.

Stock both waterproof and weather resistant window sills


Weather can damage almost any window sill material, which is why it's important to stock waterproof and weather resistant varieties. Manufacturers make these window sills from different materials and seal them to resist the elements. Customers appreciate the added weather resistance for rooms that always get the worst of storm.

I recommend: InPro Corporation’s Prism custom window sills are a great addition to any room, from bathrooms and service areas to corridors and reception areas. These sills boast a non-porous surface that looks like a painted wood sill without the worry of rot and mildew, and contractors will like their prices and quick delivery time. Delcan Products Ltd. also boasts a selection of durable waterproof sills made from synthetic materials like recycled PVC. Their sills will exceed your expectations and your customer’s needs of function and style, and their dealer pricing gives you the potential to earn bigger profits.

Select various window sill styles and depths


Window sills are a finishing touch for every room. While narrow sills are aesthetically pleasing, wide window sills boast an added function of a place to showcase plants or collectables. The style along with a plain square or a detailed edge complements the depth of the window sill. Narrow, wide, square and decorative window sills are good to keep in stock for every type of customer.

I recommend: Sill-Rite, LP offers their Classic Profile and Streamline Profile window sills in a wide range of depths. Their eight-inch sills are perfect for a customer that desires a touch of greenery at the window edge. Siltech, Inc. also offers a selection of sills of different depths with the added bonus of your choice of several different profiled edges to meet your construction business or resale needs.
