Certified Window Installations in Toronto
Improper window installation leaves gaps between the frame and the window sill - this allows outside air to seep into your home and lets out the conditioned air from inside. This might cause temperature fluctuations in your HVAC system, resulting in increased energy consumption. You may not even know if it’s the appropriate time to replace and install new ones. At Alton Windows and Doors, we have over 47 years of experience in providing window installation services in Toronto. Window installation is one of our specialties, and we can help you decide if it’s the right time to replace your windows. Some signs you should be on the lookout for:
- Problems opening, closing, or locking – One of the biggest indications that you need new windows is if your old ones have issues opening and closing. Furthermore, not being able to get your window to lock creates a huge safety issue, leaving your home vulnerable.
- Peeling paint and sill splitting – After a time, your window can deteriorate at the sill. Paint can peel and the wood can split, allowing moisture to seep in and further cause problems like wood rot. Repairs can be costly, so consider replacing damaged windows for the better investment.
- Hot or cold drafts – Drafty windows can let hot air in during the summer and cold air in during the winter which can wreak havoc on your energy bills. While you can replace the weather-stripping around your windows, this is only a temporary fix. Installing brand new windows can help boost energy efficiency overall.
If you find yourself dealing with any of the above problems, consider replacing your windows.
Benefits of Toronto Window Installation
Updating your windows is more than just replacing older models just so you can have nicer looking ones – although that’s part of the fun too! New window installation offers many benefits to homeowners, including:
- Lower energy bills – Replacing the windows in your home with energy efficient ones can provide you with a more comfortable living environment, and more significantly, generate considerable energy savings. Older windows can be drafty, letting in cold air in the winter or letting cool, air-conditioned air in the summer. Updating to newer windows allows you to maintain a more consistent temperature in your home and use less energy to maintain it.
- Affordable home makeover – Let’s face it a home renovation is a very involved, time-consuming, and expensive endeavour. Window replacement can be a less expensive alternative. New windows can offer your home a quick makeover without requiring the extensive timeline and budget of a complete home renovation. There are many different window styles, hardware, trim, and glass options to choose from to help give your home the look you want.
- Noise reduction – New, correctly installed windows can help reduce the noise in your home. If you live in an older home where you’re only feet away from your neighbour’s house, you may want to consider updating your windows to reduce noise and improve your house’s overall privacy.
- Added property value – If you’re thinking about putting your home up for sale in the future, new windows can boost your property’s value. And if you’re not in the market to sell your home, getting new windows is still worth the investment. New windows can boost your curb appeal thanks to the myriad of styles, sizes, hardware finishes, and colours available, as well as help lower your insurance costs if fitted with multiple locks.
