Simplify Your Life with Low-Maintenance Replacement Windows | Minneapolis, St Paul MN Metro

If your home has older windows, you’re all too familiar with all the maintenance they require.  Periodic replacement of rotting wood.  Scraping of chipped and peeling paint, and frequent repainting or re-staining.  Replacement of failed and crumbling caulk.   Cracked caulk due to temperature changes resulting in warping.  Sound familiar?  Haven’t you got better things to do?  Window Outfitters thinks you do, and we have many lines of low-maintenance or Minnesota maintenance-free replacement window solutions for  homeowners.  Here are some of the maintenance-reducing options available to you:

• Fiberglass:  Among our specialities are fiberglass windows from Owens Corning and Comfort Line.   (Fiberglass windows are als0 available from other manufacturers, including Pella.)  Fiberglass has an expansion and contraction rate very similar to glass.  It is also moisture-resistant and Fiberglass windows have an excellent long-term performance record when compared with traditional window construction materials such as wood or aluminum.  Fiberglass windows are also highly resistant to warping, rotting, or cracking.  Fiberglass provides a higher life expectancy than other window materials.  These windows are stable in the face of temperature changes, which means that caulk cracking is greatly reduced.  Apart from the glass panes, fiberglass windows are virtually maintenance-free.
• Vinyl:  Vinyl windows are among the most popular, and their price compares favorably with other window materials.  They have many advantages, and are very low maintenance.  Many finishes are available, including wood grain.  The color is part of the material, so vinyl window frames require no painting or staining.  Vinyl is easily cleaned with soap and water.
• Aluminum:  Aluminum is three times stronger than vinyl, and more than 40 times stronger than wood; it has excellent resistance to warping or cracking.  It won’t rust from moisture or swell with temperature changes.  Aluminum windows come with a colored finish, so painting or staining is not required.  Unlike painted wood windows, the finish is blister-resistant.
