As you start shopping, consider these five things to help you focus your window search and find the windows that are right for your project.

1. Lifestyle

One of the most important things to consider when selecting the right window for your home is your lifestyle. Keep the people, places and things in your life in mind as you shop for windows. Think about the rooms your new or replacement windows are going into and how those spaces function. Will you need to keep blinds and shades out of reach of little hands or paws? If so, you might want to consider product lines that offer between-the-glass blinds and shades options.

2. Budget

Until you have a particular product and installation method in mind, it’s hard to estimate the total cost of your window project. Factors like window materials, the size of windows and additional features and options all play a factor in determining the cost of a new or replacement window. When you’re ready to start planning your budget, schedule a free in-home consultation to get a better idea of what a new window will cost. And always remember to ask about special financing offers or seasonal promotions that can help you save.
