How Do you know if it's time to replace your home's windows?
The lifespan of your windows depends on the type you have and their maintenance, but here are the top 5 warning signs you may need new ones:
• You feel a draft.
• Your windows have visible damage or moisture, such as cracking, decaying, or condensation between the glass panels.
• Your energy bill is super high due to your windows’ inefficiencies.
• Your windows are difficult to operate.
• You can hear outdoor noises loud and clear inside your home.
Replacing your windows is a great investment that will increase your home’s energy efficiency, security, and curb appeal.
