Window replacement is an essential and inevitable part of owning a home, and when the time comes to replace yours, you’ll probably wonder what the best time of the year is to get it done.
We would always recommend waiting until the early summer to get your windows replaced. This time of year is a good time for window replacement for several reasons, including the warmer weather. Keep reading now for more information about why replacing your windows in early summer is a good idea.
Total window replacement requires you to open your entire home to the elements. Warmer, sunnier weather will always be the best time to do this to create as little disruption as possible. Winter and even spring can bring rain and cold weather, making window replacement uncomfortable.
In addition, it’s not just the discomfort that is an issue with colder weather. Many parts of the window replacement process lend themselves more to warmer weather and will be much easier for the workers installing your windows to do it in summer.
Newer windows are much better at keeping the heat out in the summer. This is because they’re usually better insulated and more energy-efficient. Changing your windows to more energy-efficient ones in early summer will save on the costs of keeping your home cool throughout the rest of the summer.
Installing double-glazed windows is an effective method of reducing your utility bill this summer.
In addition to the better insulative properties of newer double-glazed windows, these windows are also better at keeping out sounds. The summer tends to bring more people out of their houses and onto the streets or into their back gardens. By installing new windows at the beginning of the season, you can easily block out the summer noise and have a more peaceful few months.
As more people head out into their gardens, there is also more chance of impact with your window. From footballs being thrown, bouncing tennis balls, and wind, replacing your windows at the beginning of summer could help protect them from impact.
Older windows are more likely to crack and shatter upon impact, but new double-glazed windows are much more robust and are likely to withstand impact.
Finally, if you replace your windows in the early summer, then you’re already prepared for the colder seasons and the weather that comes with them.
Fall and winter come with rain, wind, and snow, and older windows are more likely to let the cold inside your home. Newer windows are better insulators and will save you money on utility bills for years to come.
