Key Signs It’s Time for a Replacement

  1. Drafts and Energy Loss – If you feel cold air seeping in during the winter or hot air entering during the summer, your windows are no longer energy efficient.
  2. Difficulty Opening or Closing – Warping, swelling, or damaged hardware can make operation frustrating and compromise security.
  3. Foggy Glass or Condensation Between Panes – This indicates seal failure, which reduces insulation and efficiency.
  4. High Energy Bills – Older, inefficient windows force your HVAC system to work harder, increasing your energy costs.
  5. Visible Damage or Warping – Cracked frames, peeling paint, or rot indicate structural issues that need addressing.

 

The Benefits of Replacing Your Windows

  • Improved Energy Efficiency – Modern, well-sealed replacements keep your home comfortable year-round.
  • Increased Home Value – Aesthetic appeal and energy efficiency make your home more attractive to buyers.
  • Better Security and Durability – Reinforced frames and secure locks enhance safety.
