Do vinyl windows increase home value?

Absolutely. Due to the high performance and design options, vinyl windows generally increase most home values, especially those with older inefficient windows. Vinyl windows can decrease home value if a homeowner downgrades them from a higher-quality material like fiberglass or when installed in an older home where vinyl windows appear unattractive.

How do I decide between fiberglass or vinyl?

When comparing the performance of the two different materials, fiberglass is inarguably a “better” material than vinyl. However, when considering the price difference between the two materials, the argument about which material is “better” really boils down to your budget and personal preferences. Fiberglass is more energy-efficient, durable, and low-maintenance than vinyl. Vinyl is more affordable and easier to clean than fiberglass. Ultimately, the best material for you will depend on your individual needs and budget.

Is there any downside to vinyl windows?

If vinyl windows do have a downside, it would have to be the tendency for the vinyl materials to expand with changing temperatures. While not common, this expansion can lead to seals and joint failures over time. On the other hand, vinyl is much less likely to warp when compared to wooden windows, and they won’t dent like metal window materials.

Should I replace all my windows at once?

While replacing all your windows at once is unnecessary, doing so will only improve your home’s value and energy efficiency while lowering your utility bill and providing enhanced security. Additionally, we can offer a better price when ordering in quantity versus individual replacements.

What makes vinyl such an energy-efficient window material?

Vinyl is an energy-efficient window material because it is an excellent insulator manufactured to be impervious to weather, low-maintenance, and lightweight while still providing the insulation needed to reduce heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer resulting in lower overall energy consumption.
