If it has come time to replace your windows, you have a lot of options available to you. If you are like many of the clients we work with, then you may not be sure how to get started. At Progressive Insulation & Windows we are happy to walk you through the process from start to finish. In the meantime, keep reading to learn about some of the biggest mistakes you should be careful to avoid.

Only Considering the Cost of the Windows

Will you consider the cost of new windows when choosing them? Of course you will – but it should not be the only thing to consider. If you only choose windows based on price then you are going to end up with the cheapest option on the market, which is unlikely to be the best value. For example, if you could have spent 10% more and doubled the lifespan of your windows, it is easy to see that this would have been the best value.

At Progressive Insulation & Windows we recommend that you consider all the factors involved in choosing a window. Look at the price but also look at the quality, how much various windows can save you on utilities, and other important factors. Remember – windows are an investment and they should be treated as such.

Not Realizing You Have Other Options than Your Current Windows

Another issue is that people often only look at the same windows they have. The truth is that since the day your home was built – or your windows were last replaced – there have been significant enhancements in the type of materials used, coatings, colors, etc. Do not assume that you must use the same type of windows – talk to your local window experts to find out what your choices are.

Working with the Wrong Window Installer

Not all window installers are created equal. At Progressive Insulation & Windows we strongly advise that you take the installation process seriously. You could choose the perfect windows for your needs but if your window is not measured correctly, not installed correctly, or not insulated correctly, you could be dealing with leaks, mold, and other serious issues – not to mention security issues. It is essential that you choose both the right windows and the right installer.
