Use New Windows to Improve Any Home

Use New Windows to Improve Any Home

There are many benefits to replacing the windows in a home. New energy efficient windows can make the home feel more comfortable, increase the resale value, and reduce the amount of maintenance the current windows require. Best of all, it improves the home’s curb appeal.


Aesthetics


One of the top reasons for window replacement is to improve the overall look of a home. New windows can add instant beauty to the exterior. Whether the house is contemporary or traditional, there are several styles of windows to pick from. The large selection of trim can further enhance the curb appeal of any structure.


Less Maintenance


New windows are specifically designed to require less maintenance than older versions. Vinyl frames never need repainting while fiberglass varieties will hold the factory paint for their entire life time. Even the hardware used is tested to make sure it withstands the elements. Tilt in windows makes cleaning a breeze.


Improved Comfort


With new windows the home itself can feel more comfortable. They keep out the cold air and hold in the heat during the winter months. Energy efficient windows found on the market today can increase the home’s warmth by as much as 50%. In the summer months they’ll keep the cool air in while it is hot outside.


Lower Energy Costs


Because new windows provide the comfort mentioned above, homeowners will find their energy costs reduced. Most will see an immediate difference in their cooling and heating expenses. Installing new windows can save one up to 25% on their monthly energy bills.


Increasing the Home’s Value


Replacing the windows in a home is one investment a homeowner is sure to get a return on. Window replacements have been listed in the top five home improvement jobs that give one a return on the amount of money put into the project. When it comes time to sell the home, perspective buyers will be looking for just such energy efficient upgrades to the structure.


With the installation of new windows, homeowners will find their home looks and feels better, and with less maintenance required they will have more time for the other things in their life. One can get a quote on the cost of new windows in their area by searching on sites such as Web.com Service Contractors. The investment will truly pay off.

The Coolest Built-In Bunk Beds (and DIY Brass Hardware) Christina is one of my favorite people. She is as kind, talented and gorgeous as the day is long. The last time I was in Arizona, I swung by her new house for a little tour. I’m going to beg her to let me share everything here on LGN when she’s finished (I’ll probably have to arm wrestle the editors at Elle Decor for it – it’s SO good!). In case you haven’t seen these yet, and since we were talking about cool bunk beds the other day, I thought I’d share the built-in bunks Christina did in her triplet sons’ room. So, so cool right? That railing is unreal. One of my favorite parts of the bed is the DIY hardware Christina made by spray painting pipes! I’ve made curtain rods out of pipes before, but never oversize pulls.

PS Christina shared a little tour of her twin da
