If you’re thinking of replacing the windows in your Dayton home, it’s important to not only consider function, but also style. The right windows should look like they’ve always been a part of your home. They’ll fit right into your color scheme and your home’s overall architecture.
Here’s a look at some of the choices you’ll have when you choose windows from Renewal by Andersen for your Dayton home.
Some window replacement companies only offer generic white replacement windows. While Renewal by Andersen does offer white as an option for both our interior and exterior surfaces, we understand that white is not the best choice for every home. That’s why we offer a wide array of colors and finishes. For your interior, you can choose pine, oak, or maple finish. Sandstone, a medium gray shade, and Terratone®, a deep, rich gray, also work well for many homes. Our real wood windows can be painted or stained any color you wish.
For your exterior, we offer simple shades like white and black, along with some more adventurous colors. Forest Green is a rich, luxurious color that looks wonderful on county homes. Red Rock, a rusty brown color, adds modern appeal to your Dayton windows.
The hardware on your windows in Dayton is more obvious than you might think. So it’s essential to choose a style and finish that coordinates with your decor when customizing windows. We offer a number of metallic finishes, including satin nickel, brushed chrome, and oil-rubbed bronze, which is popular with historic homeowners who prefer an antique look. Our hardware also comes finished in white or stone for those who prefer a non-metallic look.
A grille can completely transform the look of your Dayton windows. Some historic homes feature a specific grille pattern. For instance, Craftsman homes often feature a four-over-two pattern. Colonial homes often feature grilles that divide both the top and bottom windows into six sections.
In addition to different patterns, we also offer several different types of grilles. Full divided light grilles make it look like your glass is truly divided. They consist of an aluminum spacer placed between the glass, along with an exterior component made of Fibrex® composite. Between-the-glass grilles are installed between your two glass panes when the windows are made. Interior wood grilles are a very easy option when customizing windows. They snap into the interior sash, and you can remove them as needed to make cleaning your windows easier. All of our grilles come in several thicknesses, allowing you to fully customize the look of your windows.
If you’re not sure what windows would look best on your Dayton home, consider using Renewal by Andersen’s Window & Door Visualizer tool. You can upload a real photo of your home, and then see what it looks like with different window options. Both indoor and outdoor photos work in the Visualizer. If you don’t have a picture of your home handy, you can simply use the Visualizer to browse sample photos. Looking at images of homes similar to yours may help you come up with some new ideas for customization or decide between two ideas you’re considering.
