You know it’s time to say goodbye to your old, drafty windows, right? Not only are they creating an unpleasant aesthetic for your home, but they’re causing your energy bills to skyrocket. Wouldn’t new replacement windows be a good investment for your home? If you’re asking yourself this question and contemplating whether to spend your money on this type of update, read the following article and discover what kind of ROI you can expect when it comes to having new windows installed throughout your home.
What You’ll Pay Upfront
It’s no secret that choosing to have replacement windows installed is a costly investment. While many people try to skirt around the idea of hiring a professional and instead, try to install new windows themselves, the results are usually not as good and even faulty. On average, this type of remodeling can cost several hundred dollars per window, much of which is based on the type of frame you want, the brand and style of the window, and installing fees.
Doing your research ahead of time will help you to determine how much you can expect to pay for this type of project. You’ll also want to ask yourself, “How many windows need to be replaced,” “Do I want iron, fiberglass, or wood frames,” “Are picture or standard size windows the right option,” and finally, “How much do I want to spend on installation?”
Yes, the initial, upfront cost will be high, but if you’re working with the right professionals and choosing high-quality materials, you’ll be surprised just how much money you’ll save in the long run.
How Your Investment Will Help You Save Money
So, just how much money will you save? When you factor in the realization that new windows increase the value of your home (no matter if you plan to sell now or later) and lower your energy bill each month, you could potentially see an 85% return on investment! Poorly insulated windows will only cause your home’s system to work harder to heat and cool the interior. With professional, high-quality, and energy-efficient windows, you’ll enjoy spending less on your monthly bills and instead, save more money for that vacation you’ve been planning for your family this summer.
It may also be possible to check with your utility company as well as the state government about any rebates, credits, or incentives you might be eligible to receive because of your new windows.
At the end of the day, choosing to install replacement windows in your home will allow you to save more money in the long run. Not only will you enjoy a home with improved aesthetics, but you’ll be working to improve the environment, catch the eye of an interested buyer (if you’re selling), and keep utility bills low. So, what are you waiting for?
