Is it time to replace windows in my home?

Replace Windows

Replace Windows

Knowing when to replace your home’s windows isn’t always as clear as it may seem. If your home is older than 15-18 years, it’s probably a good time to check your windows are still operating properly. Follow the tips below and see for yourself whether a window should be saved or thrown away.

The key signs that it’s time to replace windows include:

  • Old, single-pane glass
  • Moisture damage and rotting wood
  • Noticeable air leaks
  • Cracks in your sashes and sills
  • Condensation or fogging between glass panes
  • Excessive noise from outside
  • Windows or doors do not open and close easily
  • If window is painted shut

Replacing your windows is a great way to improve the energy efficiency, beauty and comfort of any living space. And remember price doesn’t indicate the performance of your windows and make sure to match your windows to Canadian climate.

    Nice post, I’d also add rising utility costs. Many people actually save money by switching to energy efficient windows even when there existing ones are still technically working fine.
