Your windows get old and worn-out over time. If it’s been a while since your house has seen new windows, having replacements installed might be the smartest Atlanta home improvement investment you can make this year.
According to Remodeling Magazine’s “2014 Cost vs. Value” report, homeowners in the South Atlantic region can expect a recoup of up to 84% for a midrange window replacement project and up to 78% for an upscale project. That alone is incentive enough, but Renewal by Andersen® of Atlanta offers even more reasons for you to take the plunge. Below are just some of the ways replacement windows can increase your home’s value:
• Replacement windows add instant curb appeal.
Old windows with cloudy panes, rotten frames and flaking paint are an eyesore. Replacement windows give your home an instant facelift and make your exteriors look fresh and new. Renewal by Andersen provides a wide variety of window styles to suit any home. Choose from our double-hung, casement, sliding, picture and custom window options to give your home’s curb appeal a much-needed boost.
• Replacement windows make your home more energy efficient.
As windows age, they develop air leaks. Leaky windows are a big headache because they let in unwanted heat or cold drafts and worse, allow conditioned air to escape. This results in high energy bills. In contrast, replacement windows are airtight because their seals are uncompromised, which makes them a valuable energy-saving feature in any home.
• Replacement windows are easy to maintain.
While the amount of maintenance new windows will need depends largely on their frame material and design, it goes without saying that they beat old windows in this area hands-down. Renewal by Andersen makes things even easier with our exclusive Fibrex® frame material. Fibrex frames are virtually maintenance-free because they do not rot or fade and are very durable. Even our window glass is easy to clean: all you need is a soft dry cloth, mild soap and a streak-busting diluted vinegar solution.
• Replacement windows make your home look brighter inside.
Like energy efficiency and easy maintenance, natural light is always a big selling point. Renewal by Andersen windows are designed to bring in as much light as possible while keeping harmful UV rays and unwanted solar heat at bay.
