Why Replacement Windows are Worth it
Is it time to get a full window replacement?
Is it time to get a window replacement? Most people can scrape by with repairing their current windows; however, if you come to a point where your windows no longer slide open correctly or lock in place, then it may be time to consider a window replacement.
Even though a full window replacement may not be the most exciting home improvement project, there are few benefits to installing new windows in your home:
Ease of use. Windows become difficult to open and close due swelling. Swelling happens as moisture sits along the side of your windows. With new windows, you will no longer struggle to open and close your windows. Plus, you will experience little to no drafts since your new, professionally installed windows have a tight seal.
Add resale value. According to the National Association of Realtors, “Projects such as siding, window and door replacements can recoup more than 70 percent of their cost at resale.” Consider window replacements worth the splurge.
Save money. All of the windows that we install are Energy Efficient windows, which will lead to savings to your heating and cooling bill. ENERGY STAR estimates that you will save $126-$465 a year when replacing single-pane windows, or $27-$111 a year when replacing double-pane. Eventually, your windows will pay for themselves.
With factors such as: climate, style of home, and lifestyle, choosing the right windows for your home is crucial. With several comparable window brands and companies out there, how will you know which is right for you and your home? Balducci has you covered.

Posted at 15:54h, 23 NovemberI appreciate the information on replacement windows and how they can benefit a home. I agree that the ease of use is pretty worth the replacements alone, I can’t stand having to deal with windows that become so hard to slide open that I have to use my whole body. I think it is important to note that these new windows coming out are also more technologically advanced and can save us more money in the long run. My mother is debating on having her windows replaced in the near future, I will be sure to share this information with her.

Posted at 20:13h, 06 JanuaryI like how you mention that windows become difficult to open and close due to swelling. My windows are pretty old and I think they are costing me more than a new window replacement or repair would be. That’s why I think I’ll hire a professional to come and replace the windows so that I know it’s done right and won’t cause me any problems in the future.

Posted at 18:14h, 13 JanuaryWhen it comes to selling a house/property, windows are such a huge factor. The building my father owns has such old windows, there are lots of drafts at times which causes him to cover them with plastic during the frigid winter months. I know that once he finally replaces them, that shouldn’t be an issue anymore and should also increase the value of the property. Thanks for a great article!

Posted at 22:08h, 15 SeptemberI find it helpful how you pointed out that old windows are more difficult to use. I once lived in this ancient apartment and the windows were impossible to open. I will consider ease of use when I think about replacing my windows.

Posted at 12:31h, 27 MarchThanks for explaining some benefits to getting your windows replaced. I actually wasn’t aware that you should think about the climate you live in to figure out what windows are ideal for your home. I wonder if this is something that you could discuss with a professional, especially if they are local to your area because they should know what windows would be ideal there.
