If you own a home, you probably have at least two or three items on your home improvement “to-do” list. And, odds are, replacing your windows isn’t one of these items, but maybe it should be! In fact, delaying much-needed window installation can potentially lead to higher monthly energy bills, difficult-to-operate windows, and reduced home value.
So, how can you tell that your Grand Rapids, Michigan, home is due for new window installation? Here are four key signs:
- You have difficulty keeping your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer – old and inefficient windows are likely to blame.
- Opening or closing your windows is a back-breaking task – windows should open and close effortlessly.
- Condensation between the glass panes – in double-pane windows, moisture collection in the glass is a sign that the seal has broken.
- Warped or rotting window frames – no fixing this issue, a damaged frame is cause for window replacement.
Other signs that you should consider replacing your home’s windows is if they were installed more than 20 years ago or if they simply have become an eyesore. If your windows don’t have the same aesthetic appeal as the rest of your home, it could detract for your home’s resale value.
