A window replacement is a big project. You have the option of going with what you have always had, or potentially changing the whole look and feel of your home, both inside and outside, by making some strategic choices. In short, if you are going to change your windows, it is an exciting time for new possibilities. Read on to learn more.
The Big Decision — Radical Change or Replacement
First, you have to decide if you want to keep the same size and style or change the size, the style, or both. Consider that changing the style is going to be less expensive than changing the size (or shape) of your windows. One involves more minor adjustments to fit the window in place; the other involves cutting new spaces through your exterior walls to make room for the new windows.
Windows Styles
If you want to go for a different style, then it comes down to aesthetics and cost. There are some basic types of windows you should consider, including:
Energy Efficiency
Another reason for replacing your windows is to improve the energy efficiency of your home. Older homes with original windows may have a single pane setup. Even if they have double pane windows, the seal may have degraded over time, making it so you basically have two panes of glass with less of the energy savings benefit. Of course, if you have a crack in either a single or double pane window, your heat or cool air will leak out meaning that it is time for a replacement.
You have many options when you decide to replace your windows. By far the most exciting (and expensive) is to completely revamp the look of your home. If that isn't your goal, then there are some great options to improve your home's energy efficiency while using the same window size as the originals.
