    Budgeting for Your Window Replacement Project

    Budgeting for Your Window Replacement Project

    Upgrading the windows doesn’t just increase your home’s value. It also improves its natural ventilation and allows it to maintain healthy comfort levels. It’s always a good idea to keep the windows up to date, but it can be costly – especially if you’re upgrading older hardware.

    Budgeting for Your Window Replacement Project

    In this post, Renewal by Andersen® of Long Island shares tips to help you properly budget your window replacement project.

    Consider The Materials Carefully

    The window material drives up most of the cost of your budget, so you need to choose carefully. While you might think wood, being the classic material for old windows, is also the cheapest, it’s actually one of the pricier frame materials. This is due to the fact that it needs extra treatments and waterproofing finishes.

    Our replacement windows are made with Fibrex® – a composite material made from real wood fibers and high-quality polymers. It combines the benefits of wood and vinyl windows, making it an energy-efficient yet economical choice.

    Set a Budget With Repairs in Mind

    In cases where the windows have grown too old and are starting to decay, you’ll have to repair the framing of the window before you actually replace it. That’s why it’s a good idea to set your replacement budget with repairs in mind. By addressing the repair issues of your window structure, you ensure that the new window will perform at its maximum capacity and will have a longer life span, too.

    Hire a Professional

    Finally, you’ll want to hire a professional for your upcoming replacement project. While it’s tempting to do it on your own, it might actually end up costing you more. This is due to the fact that you have to source the materials yourself, and you’ll have to invest in tools and equipment. When you hire a window company like us, we already have all the materials and necessary equipment and we can source higher quality window materials at better prices.

    Whether you’re in need of casement or double hung windows, Renewal by Andersen of Long Island will make sure your new hardware is properly installed. Call us today (866) 609-5033 to learn more about our services. We replace windows throughout Long Island.
