Get Your Home Ready for Winter

It is hard to believe that winter is upon us, and the coldest days of the year are yet to come. And with the snow and freezing temperatures also comes a few common damages to the outside of your home. You can avoid some of these issues by taking measures to prepare your home for winter. From clearing the gutters to investing in replacement windows in Issaquah, WA here are some helpful tips that can protect your home from the harsh weather.

Clean the Gutters

Gutters work to move water away from your home’s foundation. But if they are blocked or loose they will not perform as they should. So make sure you clear away any debris, test the downspouts, and make sure the gutters are securely attached.

Fixing Roof Leaks

The roof is designed to protect your home, and one leak could turn into a disastrous mess. So check the shingles on your roof and if anything seems out of place you should call a professional and have it fixed.

Seal Your Concrete

Your driveway isn’t something you pay much attention to until it falls apart. If you want to prolong the life of your cement you should take the time every fall to apply a fresh sealant that will protect it from the salt and scrapes of icy winter.

Clean Up the Yard

Protecting your home also means protecting your yard and landscape. Make sure you store or cover your outdoor furniture. You also want to trim back any low hanging branches, especially those hovering over your home. And to preserve your garden and flower beds apply a fresh layer of mulch before the snow sets in. This will give you a head start come spring.

Winterize Your Sprinkler System

Water left in pipes and hoses can freeze and break over the winter. The last thing you want to find is a flood come springtime. So make sure you blow out your sprinkler system, disconnect your hoses, and insulate your outdoor hose bibs. You should also locate your main water shutoff valve in case there is an emergency.

Check the Seals on Windows and Doors

You want to check all the openings in the exterior of your home, especially around windows and doors. These are often the weakest link in protection and leaks could cost you in energy losses over the season. If you notice drafts or leaky areas, try patching them up with caulk or weather stripping. This could help prevent some of those costly leaks and keep your home comfortable all winter long.

Consider Replacement Windows

If damage to your windows is beyond mending it is time for replacement windows. Do not put off this upgrade until it is too late. Professional installers can work year round, installing windows even in winter. They take extra precautions to protect your home during the process and once your new windows are in place you will notice a significant difference in your home.

I cannot praise Signature highly enough. We hired them in 2012 to replace all of our windows and two sliding doors - the work was excellent and we love our Simonton windows. We just hired them again to rebuild our two-story entryway and install a Perva door and new windows. From the very thorough conversations with our salesperson, Vitaliy, to the scheduling with the office staff, to the actual installation - everything is as professional and high quality as you can find. We gathered quotes from three other companies but none of them went to any effort to truly lay out how the job would be accomplished. Photos show the old & new interior side, and the new exterior. Still needs painting but we're so happy!

After an extensive vetting process and comparing multiple options, I confidently chose Signature Windows & Doors for my home, and they absolutely delivered. The Marvin brand windows they installed are beautiful and of incredibly high quality—the craftsmanship speaks for itself. Beyond the great product, the installation process was truly exceptional. The crew was professional, precise, and made the entire project seamless from start to finish. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-tier windows and flawless execution. I had a fantastic experience with Signature Windows & Doors.

We called our project "The Window From Hell." It was a HUGE trapezoid window up high in a 2-story living room, and it needed to be replaced after its seal failed. I got bids, and was the most impressed with Danny L at Signature Windows. We had a tight deadline because the home was going on the market and access to the window, especially in the rain, was really challenging. Meeting the deadline, and the safety of the installers, were non-negotiable. Danny came out the very next day to measure the Window From Hell and, not only did he give me the best price, but his company was the only one that had all the scaffolding equipment readily available at no extra charge. The window arrived sooner than expected, and installation was quickly scheduled to meet the deadline. Then we hit a snag: some epic rain made the cedar roof too slippery for safe conditions. Brent and his crew of expert (and very brave) installers rigged up a safe way to haul this brand-new Mother of ALL Windows up to the second floor and install it using very long ladders, secure scaffolding, and harnesses. I think we had 4 or 5 installers for this job. It took all day to get the old Window From Hell out and the new Mother of All Windows installed. But what a job! Perfect caulk lines, perfect cleaning of the glass, perfect clean-up of the job site, indoors and out. Job done ON TIME, SAFELY, and at an excellent price. If Signature can handle my Window From Hell, I am very confident they can install ordinary double-hung windows that exceed your expectations for quality, price, timeliness, and workmanship. I highly recommend Signature Windows.

Everything from the initial consultation, regular updates on my order and installation was wonderful. The most recent installation was the third time I've had Signature replace old windows and I've been so pleased every time. They took the time to explain which windows needed replacement and provided options without any sales pressure. It's so nice to work with a company that believes in great customer service and offers quality products.

We have chosen to work with Danny and his team at Signature Window & Door twice now. We love the quality of the windows and the help they provide in the design process all the way to the finished installation. We put in a 15' folding door at our last home. It was a showstopper! Highly recommend them to bring your home back to life with beautiful windows that are built to last!

We bought a house that needed all new windows & sliding glass doors replaced. So we did our research and visited window replacement companies to see & touch different window & screen types. We decided to work with Signature Window primarily based on customer service as we received during the research & planning process with Office personnel (friendly, helpful, responsive) & Sales team (product knowledge, design assistance, open & honest).

1st Project (Aug 24) - 8 windows & 1 Sliding Door
2nd Project (Feb 25) - 1 ceiling to floor large window & 2 windows
Product of windows & door was excellent - we are extremely happy.

The customer service experience was superb. We worked with Sales Rep, Scheduler, Window Measuring Rep & Installers - all were friendly, open & honest, communicative, assisted with design & product knowledgeable. Installers did an awesome job with project cleanliness & kept busy all day long.

We are extremely satisfied with our overall experience with window replacement with Signature Windows 🥰
