When to Replace Your Windows

Are you thinking about getting replacement windows for your home but not really sure if you need to, or if it's worth it? The following questions (and your answers) will help you decide if replacing your windows will benefit you.

• Do you feel any cold drafts coming from your windows in the winter months? Or in the summer months does hot air seep into your home?
  
  
• Is condensation or frost building up on your windows?
  
  
• Are your heating or cooling bills getting out of control?
  
  
• Are your window frames faded and cracked and needing repair?
  
  
• Are there any noticeable gaps between your house and the window frame?
  
  
• Are your windows getting more and more difficult to open & close? Do you need to prop them up to keep them open?
  
  
• Are you planning on selling your home in the near future (and fearing that the condition of your windows will lower the value of your home)?
  
  
• Are you concerned about energy efficiency and helping the environment?
  
  
• Do you really want to improve the look and feel of your home? Do you want to transform its aging style and give your home a makeover?

If you answered yes to any of the questions above, then it's time to start considering the investment. There are many benefits to changing your windows and though it requires an upfront investment, new energy efficient windows will actually start putting money back into your pocket each month with the energy you'll be saving. And you'll be helping the environment too!

Your home will feel more comfortable without those cold drafts. And you won't need to crank the air conditioning as high in the summer because the heat won't be creeping in from outside.

Another benefit of getting new windows is how good they'll look - you can literally transform the look and style of your home just by changing your windows. Change a flat and boring window into a bow window; get casement windows, picture windows, awning windows; dress up your windows with some stylish and elegant grills.... the options are endless and from our experience in the industry, you will love the transformation both inside and out.
