Renovating Your New Home? Windows Should be the Top Priority.

First of all, a BIG congratulations on purchasing your new home from all the Window Geeks here at Centra! It’s an exciting time, and now you’re asking the question – how do you make this place your own? Where do you start? In truth, it’s a no-brainer… It’s time for new windows! Here are five reasons why new windows (and let’s not forget doors!) should be at the top of your list.

Enhanced Energy Efficiency

Old windows are notorious for their lack of efficiency and poor insulating qualities. Upgrading from old, drafty, aluminum or wood windows is a quick and easy way to boost home comfort all year round and save on energy bills. Vinyl windows with the latest glass coating technology are the superior choice, balancing affordability with the exceptional efficiency you need to turn a worn-down house into the cozy home you deserve.

Increased Curb Appeal & Home Value

It may not be the first thing you think of – but if you want to improve the look of your home, new windows are a great way to do it. Old, beaten-up windows bring down the overall look of any building, and the same applies to the interior as well as the exterior. Not only will new windows make your home more pleasing to look at, they’re also a quick way to increase its value through both aesthetics and energy efficiency.

Noise Reduction

It can be hard to gauge how noisy a neighbourhood is until you actually move into it. One thing’s for sure, though… old, single-pane windows aren’t much better than a hole in the wall when it comes to cutting the sound. If you want peace and quiet, then be sure to upgrade those windows ASAP – there are plenty of handy ways our Geeks can modify your custom windows to keep the neighbourhood noise at bay!

Improved Light and Ventilation

We’re sure it won’t come as any surprise – windows play a crucial role in the amount of natural light and fresh air that enters your home. Upgrading to new, customized windows gives you the chance to choose designs that maximize the intake of sunlight and also allows for effective ventilation. These are essential features to consider when it comes to creating a happier, healthier living environment.

Reduced Maintenance

With windows being such an important element when it comes to efficiency, older, outdated windows that aren’t replaced are bound to cause a lot of headaches for homeowners. Frequent maintenance, repairs, and even quick fixes as you strive to keep your new home comfortable will have you wondering why you didn’t get new windows to begin with – so why wait? Modern windows with low-maintenance features and easy-to-clean materials are a smart investment, freeing up time and cutting down on ongoing costs.

And there you have it – when it comes to new home renovations, window replacement is the way to go!
