Top 3 Remodeling Projects to Do This Season – Part 2: Window and Door Replacement

Fall is a good season to perform exterior home improvement projects including window and door replacement. Schedule the project to coincide with good weather conditions so you needn’t worry about rainwater or too much wind and heat affecting the project’s outcome. To tell whether your home needs a new door or a new set of windows, look out for the following:

Top 3 Remodeling Projects to Do This Season - Part 2: Window and Door Replacement

  • Warped and severely damaged doors and windows. If the damage is so severe, you won’t even need to bother taking a closer look to tell that something’s wrong. Warped or swollen framing material and broken window parts are definite signs that you need to call for a replacement.
  • You feel drafts in your home. Drafts of cold air? Rainwater penetrating through gaps in your windows and doors? If your units are no longer weather-tight, you’ll experience more and more such issues over time..
  • Your energy bills are rising. If your electric bill is rising even without a significant increase in your household consumption, it is probably because your windows and doors have been compromised. When they are no longer weather-tight, they can let in outside heat during the warmer months, causing your cooling system to work overtime. In the colder months, heated indoor air escapes through the windows and doors, prompting your heating system to also work harder.
  • Your home needs an exterior and interior makeover. Having your windows and doors fixed or replaced is like hitting two birds with one stone—it helps you improve both form and function in one go. Among the first things that people notice about a home is the condition and appearance of its windows and doors. Obvious damage can detract from your home’s appeal significantly. 

Indeed, window and door replacement is a cost-efficient way to improve your home’s appearance, comfort and energy efficiency. So, if you are thinking of getting some updates done on your home, installing new windows and doors is one of the best decisions you can make.
