How Do Replacement Windows Impact Your Home’s Value?

Your home is one of the largest financial investments you will make in your lifetime. The best way you can protect that investment is through regular home maintenance and improvements that will increase its value. Replacement windows are one the best upgrades that improve your home’s appearance while driving up its value. In this blog, we’ll cover all the ways that replacement windows impact your home’s value.

How Much Value Do New Windows Add To A Home?

The ROI you may see from installing new windows depends on several factors such as the type and number of windows you purchase as well as the housing market. However, it’s always a wise investment. The national average suggests you can expect a 72% ROI for replacement windows.

How Do New Windows Increase Value?

1.Increase Energy Efficiency

If the windows in your home are more than 20 years old, they’re well past their prime. Newer windows are designed with technology to increase energy efficiency. This means that they better insulate the hot or cool air your HVAC system produces. Your home’s temperatures will be more consistent and comfortable year round, and you’ll save money on your energy bill every month.

Energy efficient windows typically feature double-pane glass, vinyl frames, weatherstripping, and low-e glass that filters UV rays. Be sure to look out for these features when you’re shopping for replacement windows.

2. Boost Curb Appeal

Curb appeal can make all the difference when it comes to selling your home. Installing replacement windows will give the exterior of your home a facelift, helping to attract prospective buyers.

3. Reduce Outside Noise

Newer window models have higher soundproofing capabilities and are designed to reduce the amount of noise that makes it into your home. In a noisy neighborhood, this can be a major selling point for interested buyers.

4. More Secure

Old windows are a weak spot in your home’s security. Replacement windows are designed with locks and multi-panes that increase your home’s defenses. Some window styles, like casement and awning, provide even more security by being too narrow for intruders to fit through.

These guys did an amazing job! Our windows came in earlier than what I expected and the installation was prompt. Jay, Steve, and Rob were nothing but the absolute best! I was expecting to have to clean up a big mess from such a big job but there was no clean up for me to do at all. They did everything! My windows look amazing (neighbors keep commenting on them) and I can already tell the difference they are making! Bye bye builder grade garbage! The air conditioning isn't having to run as much and when I am not using it, the windows are helping keep the cool air in! Too notch product from an awesome company! I'm not going to be afraid of my heating bill this winter. And Michigan winters are brutal! I would give Homezone Windows a BIG 10 out of 10 and would HIGHLY recommend them! Thank you!!!!!

Homezone was extremely professional from start to finish. The salesperson was understanding of our needs & budget and was not pushy in trying to sell us more than we wanted. The installers were knowledgeable and flexible. We loved working with them. The windows look just like wood. You can't tell the difference between our wood windows and the home zone windows. We are extremely pleased with everything about this company. We give them a BIG 5 Star+ Rating. Thank you Homezone, Tim & Patty Kaiser

Justin and his crew did an amazing job on my roof!! I can't say enough great things about these guys and this company! Roofing is a very difficult job to do and these guys killed it, all working together. Oh, and to the young man that cleaned up every single shingle as it hit the ground ALL day long, you were my true hero. Having a little dog you worry about nails and things they can get into. SPOTLESS!!! This young guy was filthy when it was quiting time and I admired that. You'd be foolish to not go with these guys!

So very professional and kept in contact every step of the way, plus receiving our windows early then thought.

Everyone that I dealt with was so friendly and professional. I felt that I was their only customer!The contractor named Alex was second to none, top notch, fast and efficient. Every aspect went smooth as silk.The price is very reasonable for what you get! I would definitely hire them again for all of my home improvements. 😊

The team did an excellent job protecting my landscaping and vinyl deck as they replaced my roof. They were friendly and courteous. They worked well as a team, did the job in a timely manner and did a thorough job cleaning up when the job was completed.

After purchasing a $25k roof, I have had to have this company out 5-8 times for poor craftsmanship since the install in January. Even after that many visits and repairs I still have issues with the quality of work. I have drip edges that are bowed out, caulk lines that are half caulked, ridge cap that has more gaps than my previous, and this is only what I can see from the ground. They did a very poor job on cleanup also. I would never recommend or use again. Neighbor used Homepro three months after me and his roof is perfect and it was thousands cheaper. As a consumer, you expect that the professionals who were paid to do the job would do it correctly and not have to have this many visits.
