At RAM Exteriors, we know how important home improvement projects are. Upgrading your house is a smart way to add value to your investment and to ensure that you have a functional and inviting home. Between roof repair, bathroom remodeling, siding repair, and general maintenance, it can seem like there is an endless list of updates to make to your home. However, one important project that many homeowners overlook is window replacement. Because your windows seem like a permanent part of your home, it can be easy to forget that they actually need to be replaced after a few decades. Window replacement can be a smart way to upgrade your home in four major ways. If you think your Sellersville home could benefit from replacement windows, contact the professionals at RAM Exteriors to get started today!
Replace Damaged Windows
Time and weather put a lot of stress on the exterior of your home, and your windows are no exception. Over time, your windows can become subtly damaged by exposure to the wind, rain, sun, and snow. While cracked panes are an obvious sign of damage, more often the signs are less clear. Often, it can be difficult to know what to look for to determine if your windows have been damaged by the elements. Sagging or warped window frames are a telltale sign that your windows are damaged. In fact, misshapen window frames can start to crack and allow moisture and bugs into your home. Another sign of damage is windows that stick when you try to open them, or windows that refuse to stay open. If you suspect that you have damaged, aging windows, contact the experts at RAM exteriors to start planning your total window replacement.
Increased Energy Efficiency
Old, worn windows are known for being poorly insulated and drafty. Allowing cold air to escape in the summer and warm air to leak out in the winter, old windows can be a real drag on your home climate control. Your air-conditioning and heating system have to work harder to replace the conditioned air that constantly escapes through your windows, increasing the energy usage of your home and costing you a fortune on your energy bill. Replacing your old, leaky windows with newer, better insulated windows will increase the energy efficiency of your home. With brand new windows, you can save money on your energy usage and enjoy a more comfortable home year-round. Plus, upgrading the energy efficiency of your home adds value to the property. If you are considering selling your home, or if you just want it to be as modern and updated as possible, energy efficient windows are a great way to add value and appeal.
Added Curb Appeal
Over time, old windows can start to look faded, dull, and dingy. Whether your aging windows are worn, sagging, or simply outdated, a window replacement may be the solution for you. Replacing all the windows in your Sellersville home can be a great way to refresh the exterior of your home and add curb appeal to your property. During your window replacement project, you can also select new styles of windows to improve the appearance of your home, giving your property a whole new look. While new windows are especially stunning on the outside of your home, they can also help improve the look and feel of the inside of your home as well. Especially if you are planning to sell your home within the next few years, a smart way to add appeal to the inside and outside of your home with one project is to replace the windows.
Improved Security
Old windows have old locks and old technology. In some cases, the locks on your outdated windows might not even work properly anymore. Replacing your old windows with new ones gives you the opportunity to choose new safety upgrades for your home. You could choose opaque or reflective glass for your windows, minimizing how well outsiders can see into your home. Additionally, you can choose from a variety of locking mechanisms to ensure that you get the best security for your Sellersville home. New windows are a great way to add to your home’s overall security and give you peace of mind.
Replacing worn-out windows with new ones is a great way to appeal, energy efficiency, and security, to your Sellersville home. If you are seeking window replacement services, contact the experienced professionals at RAM Exteriors today to get started on your customized window solutions.
