The Vinyl Replacement Window Boom
It's easy to see why vinyl replacement windows
have become one of the most popular home improvements around. They
reduce noise and energy use while increasing your property value
and enhancing the appearance of your home. They can be installed
quickly without major construction headaches and the price is relatively
affordable.
Before and after: We replaced our aluminum windows with vinyl windows to improve energy efficiency, reduce noise and beautify our home.
But chosing the right replacement windows is a
major project that requires careful consideration. When my wife
and I decided to replace the seven windows and three sliding patio
doors in our home, we found out just how confusing it can be. Our
house is a typical 1960's era ranch style home located in Southern
California. The exterior is stucco and the original windows were
aluminum. We spent several months trying to find the best vinyl
replacment windows for our home. In the process, we learned a lot
about the window replacement industry, from the various options
that are available to sales tactics all buyers need to watch out
for.
We have created this buyer's guide to share our
experience with others who are shopping for vinyl replacement
windows. We tried to put together all of the information we
wish we would have had as we were beginning the process. Whether you're considering windows for a condo, house or apartment, we hope
our successes and our mistakes will help you find the best replacement
windows for your home.
