The Top 6 Reasons Homeowners Replace Windows

Do you really NEED to replace your windows? Well, that depends.

At Haynes Windows and Siding, this is one of the most common questions we receive.

Here are the top 6 reasons our customers are shopping for replacement windows:

  1. Energy-Efficiency
  • Old windows can often be a constant source of discomfort, and sap energy dollars away from your pocket. While these windows were considered “good enough” when they were installed, today’s windows are far superior.
  • On average, upgrading to new, energy-efficient windows can save you between $101 and $583 a year when replacing single-pane windows. A more comfortable home, and more money in your pocket; who wouldn’t want to make the switch?
  1. Defects:
  • Customers often complain of old, outdated windows that are sweating, broken, or letting in drafts. Your windows may start to show these signs that they are nearing the end of their life:
  • Chips, cracks, or rotting wood
  • Condensation or streaking on the inside of the glass panel
  • Drafts or leaks around the window sash
  • Any window with single-pane glass
  1. Style or Renovations
  • What passed for stylish in the 80’s isn’t the same as what people desire today.
  • At Haynes Windows and Siding, we offer just about any window design you can imagine. From wide view picture windows to traditional, colonial double-hung windows, you can be sure that we’ll find the right design and color for your home.
  1. Safety
  • Poor locking and closing of the window, or even broken locks, may prompt you to upgrade to our ULTRA windows, which come with reinforced locks that keep your home secure.
  1. Age
  • Windows, like any other man-made product, have a lifespan. Some windows will last 30 years, others will only last 5.
  • At Haynes Windows, we want you to have a product that will last a lifetime. That’s why we offer an industry-leading Lifetime Limited Warranty.
  1. Increased Home Value
  • Replacement windows can add real value to your home, and many customers want windows if they are buying, selling, or planning to sell a home.
  • According to estimates from Remodeling Magazine, replacement windows (depending upon type) can add $10-$13,000 in value.
  • The ROI (return on investment) is one of the best of any major remodel investment.
