5 Benefits to Replacing Your Minneapolis Windows

As summer draws to a close, homeowners may be wondering how to take advantage of the nice weather before winter comes around. After all, the end of summer offers great weather and a relatively quiet lull before the holiday rush begins, so it is a great time to invest in home improvement projects. If you are looking for a project to instantly update your Minneapolis home before winter comes around, consider having a full window replacement done on your home. At All City Improvements, we have the knowledge and skills to expertly replace all your older home windows with new, beautiful versions.

Curb Appeal

Most of the time, when people think of the phrase “curb appeal” they think of details like landscaping and exterior paint colors. However, your home's curb appeal is really a product of all of the elements of your home's exterior, combined. In other words, each part of your home that can be seen from the curb can enhance or detract from your curb appeal.

Unfortunately, many homeowners make the mistake of neglecting their windows. Dull, faded, or dated windows can hurt any home's curb appeal, no matter how well-kept the lawn is. To ensure that your home fulfills its full curb appeal potential, consider having all your windows replaced. New windows will refresh and enhance your home's exterior, making more attractive than ever before.

Whole Home Makeover

New windows are just about the only home improvement project that can improve your entire home, inside and out. Not only will replacement windows enhance your home's curb appeal, but they will also make each and every room inside your home look and feel newer and fresher. The drab windows you had before will be replaced with clean, new windows, enhancing the natural lighting in your home.

If you are interested in using your Minneapolis replacement windows project as an opportunity to dramatically change your home's appearance, you can even opt to replace your old windows with a new style of window. From bay windows to picture windows to garden windows, All City Improvements can handle it all. No matter what style or styles you choose to incorporate in your Minneapolis replacement windows project, your home is sure to look and feel completely refreshed inside as well as out.

Added Energy Efficiency

Older windows tend to become drafty over time. Unfortunately, drafty old windows allow your home's warm air to escape during the winter and allows the hot summer air to enter throughout the summer, undermining all the hard work your heating and air-conditioning systems have been doing. Brand new windows will be more energy efficient than the ones you presently have, reducing strain on your HVAC systems and saving you money on your heating and cooling expenses. At All City Improvements, we can even help you with selecting the most energy efficient windows for your home, to ensure that you maximize your potential energy savings.

Remove Damaged Windows

Damaged older windows can become weak points in your house, allowing in moisture and bugs in addition to the outside air. However, signs of damage in your old windows can be difficult to identify. If you have windows that are warping or sagging, they are likely suffering from damage that can impact your home overall. Likewise, if your windows have cracks in the sills, are splitting, or are difficult to open or close, you probably have damaged windows. Replacement windows can solve all of these problems and more, ensuring that your windows are doing their job in protecting your home from outside moisture and pests!

Improved Security

Aside from moisture, pests, and air, your windows should also keep out intruders. Older windows often become increasingly unsafe over time. Some older windows have aging locks that don't effectively secure your property. Other windows simply won't open, which is just as unsafe as windows that won't lock- windows should offer a way to air out your home if the air becomes too polluted with a contaminant, or a way to escape if your home experiences a fire. Old windows simply present security risks for your home, and new windows are the best way to resolve them.
