Replacement Windows
HDG makes replacing windows easy from start to finish. We will measure, install your new windows and doors, and even haul away your old ones. So replacement is convenient and stress-free for you.
Indicators that your old windows or doors need to be replaced
Poor Performance – opening and closing is a difficult task; air leaks in, out or around the window; condensation or fogging occurs on or between glass panes;
Safety – windows that don’t open easily or are painted or nailed shut may prevent a safe escape during a fire when seconds count;
Looks – chipping, deterioration, and water stains on the window or the area around the window (inside or out);
Effort – cleaning is a major hassle; replacement parts are hard to find or even non-existent.
Improve the energy efficiency of your home
Keep your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter by opting for Low-E (low-emissivity) glass coatings. Low-E helps reduce heat transfer and ultraviolet (UV) rays that can fade carpets, walls and furniture.
You also can reduce heating and cooling costs by replacing old single-pane windows with today’s energy-efficient double pane windows.
Select windows and doors that have earned the ENERGY STAR® distinction to ensure you are maximizing potential savings to your heating and cooling costs.
Other Considerations
To keep the exterior appearance consistent, consider replacing all the windows on one side at the same time.
If your timber window frames are in excellent condition, the easiest way to replace is to remove old sashes and put a replacement window into the old frame. This allows the existing trim to remain in place. If frames are worn or damaged, replace the entire window unit.
If you’re thinking about replacement windows or patio doors, there’s no reason to wait. The benefits start immediately. From enhancing your home’s interior to adding to its curb appeal, new windows and doors transform a home from ordinary to outstanding. What’s more, they provide one of the best returns on investment of any home improvement project.
