The minute you buy a house, the process begins of transforming it into the home of your dreams. And this is a process. Upgrades, renovations, and customizations are what separates the beautiful family home from the ordinary house. In this article, we’re going to talk about one of the most common upgrades homeowners make – replacement windows – and the process of choosing windows that meet your style goals.

Why is Having Replacement Windows Installed So Popular?

Replacement windows are a popular home upgrade because they help make the home more energy efficient. One of the issues you might experience in an older New England home is draftiness. When cold air can get into the home, warm air can get out. This means the furnace is running all of the time and fuel bills go through the roof. Saving money is never a bad idea. Having the windows upgraded means you waste less money on fuel oil.

Your home may already have replacement windows in it. The average useful life of replacement windows averages between twenty and forty years, with older, lower quality windows tending strongly toward the twenty year end of the curve. Basically, if the windows in your home were installed prior to 1990, it’s time to consider window replacement.

Now, Let’s Talk about Style

Windows ornament the house the way jewelry accessorizes an outfit. The windows draw the eye. People notice the framing and design, as well as any shutters and trim. When all of these elements are carefully selected and expertly installed, the home’s appearance is elevated.
