Four Signs Minneapolis Homeowners Need New Replacement Windows

Have you been looking at replacement windows? Or perhaps you’ve put the research aside because there are just too many things to consider.  The good news is, we can simplify things. As THE replacement window company for the Minneapolis area, our job is to help each of our customers get the perfect solution to their home window situation.  (And from the great feedback, reviews, and testimonials we are getting, it looks like we’re hitting our goal.)  But perhaps you’re wondering whether you actually need new windows.  There are a number of things that can indicate it’s time for those old windows to go.  Here are some of the most common ones.

Here are Four Signs You Need New Windows

  • Sign #1: Your Rooms Are Drafty or Have Hot or Cold Spots Near the Windows:  Drafts are common with older windows. Window frames that once fit tight in their openings can warp or shrink over time, especially if the frames are wood. Today’s modern energy-efficient windows can eliminate those drafts.
  • Sign #2: Your Heating and Cooling Bills Are Rising:  While we realize the cost of energy is going up, if you notice your bills are higher than normal, your windows could be the culprit. In fact, heating and cooling losses in a home are greatest around window openings. Replacing those old air-leaking windows can cut your energy bills as well as add value to your home.
  • Sign #3: Your Windows Are Hard to Open or Close:  Struggling to open a window? Or get it closed? There may be two causes, both of which mean it’s time for new windows. Either your window frames have warped or shrunk so that they are no longer square (which affects their ability to slide up and down) or the window frame itself has structural issues.
  • Sign #4: I Just Want New Beautiful Windows!  Is this really a sign? Well, no… but we wanted to include it anyway 🙂 Tired of the way your existing windows look? Outdated, shabby windows not only detract from your home’s appearance but also in the satisfaction and pride you take in it. We’d love to show you some of the up-to-date window styles that could make all the difference.
If you’ve noticed one or more of these things, it’s definitely time to talk to one of our replacement window technicians. We can evaluate the condition of your current windows and suggest a solution that works for you, your home, and your budget. Call us at 952-746-6661 (Minneapolis) or 651-209-1001 (St. Paul) to schedule an appointment. We can meet you in your home or at our replacement window and exterior door showroom in Savage.
