Getting replacement windows in Seattle, WA<\/a> is a big investment. That is the reason why so many homeowners end up putting off the project as long as they can. But what they don\u2019t realize is there are several ways to keep this home improvement project on budget. Here are just a few things to keep in mind that help reduce the cost of new windows:<\/p>\n

1. Know When to Replace Windows<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is important to know if the problems with your windows are repairable or if they require window replacement. Most window problems start out small and get worse with time. Things like difficult operation and leaks might be easy fixes. But condensation between the glass, warped frames, rust, rot, and mold often require window replacement.<\/p>\n

2. Establish Priorities<\/strong><\/p>\n

Before shopping for products it is important to consider what is most important in your home. Is style and curb appeal at the top of the list? Are functionality and natural light more pressing? Or is energy efficiency the top priority? Pinning this down will help you know which features to splurge on and where you can save.<\/p>\n

3. Understand Energy Efficiency<\/strong><\/p>\n

The efficiency of a window depends on the climate of the region. Windows that work well in Florida will not have the same performance in Oregon. That is why it is important to break down the energy labels and figure out which glazing technologies are best suited for energy savings in the area.<\/p>\n

4. Find the Right Window Material<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are four main window materials: vinyl, wood, aluminum, and fiberglass. Each comes with unique pros and cons. Vinyl is weather resistant<\/a> and affordable but doesn\u2019t last as long as other materials. Fiberglass windows are energy efficient and durable but come at a higher cost. All things to consider if you want to maximize your investment.<\/p>\n

5. Consider Resale Value<\/strong><\/p>\n

Choosing the right replacement windows is especially important if you are planning to sell your home. You don\u2019t want to go with the cheapest options possible, because that could lose you some prospective buyers. You don\u2019t want to pick the most expensive windows either, because that could bring down the return on your investment. Best to find good middle ground on windows that match the quality and aesthetics of your home.<\/p>\n

6. Choose Standard Sizes and Styles<\/strong><\/p>\n

Larger, custom window installations are very expensive. If you are looking to keep your project on a budget, consider getting more standard styles in standard sizes.<\/p>\n

7. It Doesn\u2019t Have to Be All or Nothing<\/strong><\/p>\n

On a replacement window project, it does not have to be all or nothing. Certain windows will wear out faster because of use and exposure. You can choose to just replace certain windows based on needs and location and then rotate to the rest of the home to help manage costs.<\/p>\n

8. Work with a Window Professional<\/strong><\/p>\n

A lot of homeowners try to save money by installing their own windows. What they may not realize is window installation<\/a> is meticulous work. It takes special training and special tools to do the job correctly. One mistake could not only result in leaks but could also ruin any warranty on the products you purchased.<\/p>\n
