As with most things these days, you’ll need to check facts before committing to one particular belief or product. This even applies to window replacement–a project that still has plenty of myths surrounding it. To help you get started on your project the right way, the premier roof repair and window installation company, Howard Roofing & Home Improvements, debunks a few of these misconceptions.
“You can pick the same windows every time.” The fact is that the windows that seemed great years ago are probably close to obsolete now. Window technology has advanced, allowing for choices that are designed better, tougher and more energy-efficient. A replacement project gives you the opportunity to try these out. By picking the same windows as before, you may be missing out on the excellent features these newer options can offer.
“Price is always the focus.” This is already a huge myth in most home improvement projects, such as new roofing installation, and it still is in window replacement. It’s understandable to want to save more on a home upgrade, but focusing too much on getting a lower price isn’t the way to go. Prioritize quality instead. Higher quality windows may have a bigger initial cost, but the benefits they can provide in the long-term will more than make up for it.
“Go ahead and DIY a window replacement.” This may be the biggest myth of all. Window replacement looks straightforward, sure, it actually requires years of experience and precise workmanship. To ensure you get high-quality results–and avoid further costs due to the usual DIY mistakes–turn to Howard Roofing & Home Improvements.
