Budgeting your window replacement project without foresight could cost you more money down the road. Pocket-friendly units should be a reasonable, initial expense and have a low life-cycle cost.
To help you keep window installation financially sensible, Renewal by Andersen® of San Francisco shares some practical pieces of advice:
Don’t Replace Frames Unnecessarily
Including window frame replacement in your project would cost more money in material and labor. Many “do-it-for-me” homeowners don’t realize they can just get new units. If your old sills and frames are still in good repair, you only need an insert window replacement.
Our company is committed to doing the window installation method that makes sense in your situation. Our experienced design consultant will inspect your existing wall openings to assess the condition of your window frames. If they’re still square and solid and we can perform the construction in a structurally sound manner, then we can just insert your replacement windows.
We’re also familiar with the current local fire egress requirements. When your frames are intact but not up to code, we’ll recommend the full-frame window replacement to ensure your home complies with today’s building regulations.
Buy Long-Lasting and Low-Maintenance Products
Choosing cheap units to minimize your initial outlay creates an illusion of savings. If you skimp on quality, the odds of needing to repair or even replace them after a few years is high.
On the other hand, spending your hard-earned dollars on low-maintenance windows guaranteed to last for a long time makes a sounder investment. Moreover, nearly maintenance-free units don’t just make cleaning a breeze but also eliminates the need for repainting.
Put Prospective Contractors under the Microscope
Hiring a reliable window installation contractor keeps the chances of workmanship errors to a minimum. As much as you want to keep your budget low, it’s generally unwise to choose the lowest bidder just because it charges the least. To truly save you money, not to mention time and energy, do your due diligence to know the company’s credentials. Understand how far it would go to make your project worry-free from start to finish.
