Common Mistakes When Replacing Windows

Purchasing windows is a significant investment in your home. Sometimes consumers try to cut corners to save a few pennies or expedite the process. Following are some common mistakes that homeowners make that you should try to avoid:

Buying Unknown Brands

Window options come in a wide range of costs. Some will be from reputable companies, but others will be from off-brands that seduce you with attractive prices. While the off-brand windows may have the same appearance as a reputable brand, you have no way of knowing the quality, energy efficiency, or longevity of an off-brand. The last thing you want is to spend thousands of dollars replacing your windows with an off-brand, only to discover that they don’t hold up for the long term. Instead, stick with well-known, reputable window brands that offer a warranty and stand behind their products.

Contracting with Different Companies to Purchase and Install Windows

Sometimes homeowners prefer to use different companies to purchase windows and install them because they perceive it is less expensive. However, by working with the same company for purchase and installation, the company can stay on top of any manufacturing or shipping delays and schedule your installation accordingly, minimizing disruption for your family. They also take full responsibility for ensuring that they measure the space and order the correctly-sized windows. If you have any issues with the windows after purchase, they will take care of that for you as well – with different companies you may have each company pointing the finger at each other, creating a big headache for you to sort out.

Replacing Old Windows Instead of Upgrading Them

Homeowners often replace their old windows with the same ones. Like all technologies, window technology evolves. The windows available today are more energy efficient and offer more features than even a few years ago. This is especially true if you currently have standard windows instead of hurricane impact windows. By upgrading to hurricane impact windows, you can increase your comfort during a hurricane, remove the hassle of hurricane shutters, decrease your energy bills, and improve the safety of your home against intruders.
