Windows

Your windows ultimately affect your home’s curb appeal, resale value, and how much you’ll pay for monthly energy costs, too.

Choosing Winning Windows for Your Home

Consider these factors before installing or updating your windows:

  • Window type: You can choose from many different window styles, and they aren’t all created equal. From bay windows to awnings, each type can serve your home and family in different ways.
  • Window size: A window’s size affects its functionality and how much it will cost to install. Getting proper measurements before installation will simplify this process and ensure a better fit.
  • Energy efficiency: Windows without insulative qualities can drive up your energy bill by letting outdoor temperatures transfer into your home. Finding the highest energy-efficient window models for your home can help you save big in the long run.
  • Life span: Window frames come in different materials, each with its own durability level and average life span. While you’ll likely pay more for stronger materials, these will last longer before needing to be replaced.
