Midland homeowners are lovin’ their newly upgraded energy efficient windows and doors. When is it necessary to upgrade a home’s doors and windows? And as a homeowner how can you reap the rewards from day one of your home upgrade? From energy savings to improved insulation, read more to find out!

There are a number of signs that say it’s time to replace your home’s windows and patio doors. A few of these main reasons are home comfort, economical, environmental, and aesthetic. Let’s look at these in closer detail.

Home comfort:

• When you consider we spend a great deal of our time in our homes, being comfortable in that space is extremely important. When a home’s heating and cooling levels are inconsistent and unreliable, then there is no sense of comfort in the home.
   

Economical:

• With today’s ongoing rising energy costs, reducing a home’s monthly expenditures is something homeowners are very keen on doing. In fact, this could be the top reason a homeowner seeks home improvement, upgrades, and in particular replacements of their windows and doors.
   

Environmental:

• Today there’s a huge focus on our environment with many seeking out ways to be a good earth steward. We’ve seen over and over again the degradation of communities around the world due to climate change. Homeowners who strive to be environmentally conscious seek out methods to reduce their carbon footprint. This is achieved when a home has a low energy consumption rate.

Aesthetic:

• The look of a home’s interior and exterior will appear quite dated with windows and doors that are old and/or in disrepair. A new set of window and door replacements will add a dramatic change to any home. There are many styles and colours available today that will give your home a fresh new look. When you consider the importance of curb appeal in the world of real estate, then this kind of upgrade will not only improve the look but can increase the value of the property.

Here’s a quick checklist of things to watch out for that signal it’s time for an upgrade:

• Drafts around the windows and doors, or the surrounding areas.
• Windows and doors that no longer work property, or at all.
• Water stains, water seepage. This is not a good sign. It indicated your seals are extremely damaged and need to be looked at ASAP.
• Discolouration and fading or furniture or window coverings. Older single-pane windows are usually to blame for this as they do not have any form of UV protection.
• Excessive noise entering the home. Sound travels by air and so a poorly sealed home will also let in unwanted outdoor sounds.

This year, in our Midland home, we’ve noticed more drafts coming from our bay window area. How do we know when it’s time for replacement?

Well, drafts are a sign that your airtight seal has somehow been broken. This could be coming from the window panes, from the window frame, or from the interface of the window and the surrounding wall areas. A skilled professional windows & doors company in Midland will definitely help you pinpoint the cause and be able to recommend a solution that works best for your Midland home.
