Vinyl Windows & Window Installation

Window Replacement & Window Installation

Windows are an important part of your home. They provide natural light, fresh air, ventilation, and protection from the elements, while enhancing curb appeal. However, over time, windows can become damaged, outdated, or inefficient. Eventually, window replacement will be necessary.

A qualified professional window installation company like ABC Seamless of Janesville will help you determine when it’s time to replace your windows, choose the right windows for your home, and install them properly so they provide many years of dependability.

When is it Time to Consider Window Replacement?

Like everything in your home, from flooring and appliances to mechanical systems and roofing, windows will someday need replacing. Fortunately, this doesn’t happen often; on average, you can expect windows to last anywhere from 15 to 30 years. Their lifespan depends on a variety of factors including the type of windows, how well they have been maintained, and exposure to sunlight, moisture, and other environmental conditions.

There are a few telltale signs that it’s time to consider window replacement. The most common include:

• Drafty Windows. When you feel a draft coming from your windows, it’s a sure sign that they’re no longer sealing properly. This can lead to energy loss in the winter and higher utility bills. In addition, drafts can make your home feel uncomfortable, especially on cold or windy days.
• Condensation Between Panes. If you see condensation between the panes of your windows, it’s likely the seals have failed. This can lead to a number of problems, including fogged-up windows, mold growth, and water damage.
• Damaged Frames. If your window frames are cracked, warped, or rotting, they should be replaced. Damaged frames can compromise the security of your windows and make them more susceptible to drafts and water damage.
• Difficulty Opening and Closing. If your windows are difficult to open or close, it could be a sign that they’re improperly aligned or the hardware is damaged. This is more than just a nuisance; it can also be a safety hazard if you need to evacuate your home in an emergency.
• Increased Noise. If you live on a busy street or a crowded neighborhood, old windows can let in a lot of unwanted noise. This can disrupt your sleep, cause stress, and make it difficult to concentrate.
• Aesthetics. If your windows are outdated or damaged, they can make your home look neglected. New windows can give your home a fresh, updated look and increase its curb appeal.
• Higher Energy Bills. If your energy bills have been increasing, it might be a sign that your windows are not energy-efficient. Replacing them with energy-efficient windows can save you money on your energy bills in the long run.

If you’re experiencing any of these problems, it’s best to consult with a window replacement professional. They can assess your windows and give you an estimate of the material and window installation costs.
