    Spring Window Replacement: How to Prepare Your Home

    Are you planning to install new replacement windows in your home? If so, spring is the ideal time to get this home improvement project done. Here is a brief checklist to help you make the installation process run as smoothly as possible while the window contractor handles other major preparations.

    Spring Window Replacement

    • Cut back tree branches. Foliage flourishes during the spring and summer months. But if there are tall, overarching trees or large shrubs that may create obstacles for the installer, do not hesitate to prune them back.

    • Clean the area surrounding the windows. Since dust and pollen are at an all-time high in spring, it is essential that you clean the area surrounding the windows that will be replaced. Or else, debris can mix with caulk and compromise the performance of your new windows.

    • Remove window treatments. Before the contractor installs your new windows, you must remove curtains, blinds and other window coverings.

    • Clear furniture away from windows. Cabinets, chairs and other pieces of furniture near the windows should be moved to create pathways where installers can effortlessly get to the windows, especially between the windows and the front door.

    • Deactivate your security system. If you have a security system with window sensors, do not forget to deactivate it before the installers begin working to avoid hassles and confusion later on.

    • Keep pets secured. During the installation, keep your pets secured in a room away from the working areas. Installers will be occupied with carrying heavy materials in and out of your home and may not have the time to keep an eye out for your pets.
