If you are renovating a room in your Sacramento home or updating the entire home, investing in replacement windows is a smart choice. Windows and doors are the only parts of the home that are seen from both the exterior and the interior, and they are important in any type of renovation project.
Windows and doors can become old and dated looking. Windows, in particular, can become more difficult to maintain over time, particularly with old wooden frames that are constantly warping or that need frequent repainting and staining.
Choosing the new types of replacement windows allows you to keep the same general look, but to take advantage of maintenance-free options in window frames. From vinyl to fiberglass or even to traditional wood that is fully treated to extend the look of the frame, there are new, upgraded materials and options to consider.
A New Look
In addition to superior frame materials, replacement windows can also provide an older home with a bright, new look. In many of the old homes in the Sacramento area, windows were relatively small to prevent heat from entering into the house during the hot summer months.
Today, thanks to energy efficient engineering and design, new windows prevent UV rays from coming through the glass, while also providing thermal breaks and insulation between the panes of glass. This helps to keep the room cool and limit the need for the home air conditioner to come on, helping to save on energy bills. At the same time, with the option to increase the size of windows, it is possible to let more natural light into the rooms, which makes the house look more spacious and open.
Deciding to upgrade to new windows and replace the old is a great idea. Ask Northwest Exteriors for a quote; you may be surprised at how reasonable this home renovation project can be.
