Have you recently been told you need new windows, but are feeling hesitant to move forward with window replacement in the winter months? If you’re afraid your house will be cold during the replacement process, you should know that inefficient windows can ultimately cause even colder air to pervade your home throughout the winter. As we enter the winter season, here are some reasons to strongly consider giving window replacement the green light.

Better Assessment of Problems

Colder temperatures during the winter make it easier for your contractor to identify problems with your current windows, such as drafts, leaks or condensation. This can help you in determining which areas of your home would benefit most from new windows, allowing your contractor to assess the best type of replacement installation. If you’re on a tight budget, it will ultimately be easier to assess which windows need the most attention so you can spend wisely.

Easier Scheduling and Lower Costs  

Window repairs are much easier to schedule during the winter, as it’s generally a slower season for installation projects among contractors and installers. Along with more flexible scheduling (especially during the holiday time), window replacement in the winter is typically more affordable than during the peak times of spring and fall. It’s common to find discounts, sales and other incentives during the winter season, making any window replacement project more financially appealing!

Experience Immediate Results

In the dead of winter, having a warm, cozy house is all anybody really wants. By completing your window installment in the winter months, you’ll immediately experience the results of your new windows – and finally be able to enjoy your home without constantly having to turn up the thermostat! In turn, this will lead to significantly reduced heating costs, as the upgraded insulation of your windows will be able to keep the temperature in your home more stable. 

There’s no reason to avoid getting window replacements, just because it’s freezing out. Between cost savings and scheduling flexibility, the winter is often the perfect season to take the plunge and get your home equipped with new windows.

If you’re taking the time to replace your home’s roofing or siding, are you done with the renovations that you need to have happen now? This is often a very convenient time for homeowners to consider replacing their windows at the same time. Why? Roofing, even when accomplished by a careful crew, has some risks to your windows. Replacing siding makes window replacement easier. Here’s a look at why you should consider replacing your windows at the same time that you have other work done.

While You’re Roofing or Siding, Have You Considered Replacement Windows?

Window technology has continued to advance over the decades, getting better over the years. Originally, single-pane windows were used for centuries. A number of techniques were used to help create a better seal, then a second layer of glass was added in the form of a storm window. Within the past few decades, the two layers were brought together into a single window structure, with an air space between them. This space was later filled with various gasses that had specific thermal insulative properties. Most recently, the glass has had special films added to them, reflecting heat into or away from the building.

Replacing Your Windows at the Same Time as the Roof or Siding Can Save You Money

When you have contractors already working on your home, replacing your windows at the same time makes the entire process less costly. Because the contractors are already out at your home, they don’t need to charge you for a separate trip or project. If your siding is coming off to be replaced, it greatly reduces the amount of work required when the windows are replaced, because the process is very similar. If you’re having your roofing replaced, changing out your windows at the same time also helps ensure that you don’t need to worry as much about potential damage that can happen from even the most careful contractors. Improved windows mean you’ll have better sound and thermal insulation at home.
