About Replacement Windows
Replacement Windows, Window Treatments and Window Installation
Whether you're building a new house or remodeling your current home, unique quality windows can add a special touch - and provide added energy efficiency and easy maintenance. There are two basic types of windows - operable and fixed:
- Operable windows offer ventilation, along with providing an emergency escape - part of your home security/fire exit planning.
- Fixed windows offer better energy efficiency and security.
Consider your design, functionality and budget requirements. Windows come in many styles, materials and colors - and some of the more popular styles include:
- bay window or bowed window
- picture window
- single and double slider window styles
- single or double hung windows
- casement window
- awning window
For a designer touch, leaded and stained glass windows add a decorative accent, along with a wide array of custom shapes - oval, clover, arched, half-round and many other custom window styles. Homeowners can select the material that works best for their home, including aluminum, wood and vinyl replacement windows. Consider glass blocks for decoration - and added security.
Choose professional installation for worry-free, expert assistance. Look for licensed and insured installers. Ask about a free estimate before starting the job, and inquire about warranties against defects in materials and workmanship.
Once you've installed your new windows, consider the variety of window treatments available - curtains and draperies, window blinds and window shades. Valences can add a tie your fabric and/or color decorating scheme together - without detracting from the view. Decorative rods and finials add those special touches that can make your room extraordinary.
