Deciding on doing some home remodeling in St. Louis MO? Whatever your reason for the upgrade or renovation project, giving your home a much needed facelift is both a fun and rewarding activity. There are certainly a lot of projects to choose from, and we advise that you take a good look at your home before starting any. So what needs fixing or replacing?
So what needs fixing or replacing?
We recommend starting from parts of the home that regularly take a lot of beating from the weather. You might not notice it from the start, but your windows in St. Louis could use replacing, especially if those windows are more than 10 years old. There might be minor cracks or breaks, or the frame might be rotting. Letting your windows go on like this is going to be more trouble than it’s worth.
For example, those old windows may be leaking too much air. When you turn up your AC on a hot day, the cool air will leak out through the gaps, so your air conditioners will have to work twice as hard, driving up your electric bill.
Another problem that old windows pose is water damage. Old windows with cracked or rotted frames may allow rain to seep in during a downpour, which could cause damage to your interiors.
Rather than letting those old windows cost you for electric bill and water damage repair, consider replacing them with durable windows. We recommend Fibrex®, an advanced material exclusive to Renewal by Andersen®. It sets itself apart from other materials like wood, vinyl, and aluminum by offering a beautiful aesthetic that will not be tarnished by mildew and mold, or be susceptible to chipping, warping or corrosion.
A durable window ensures that cool air stays where it belongs inside your home, and makes sure that water doesn’t seep into the home. For more information on Fibrex® and its durability, contact Renewal by Andersen® today.
