Replacement Windows – A Home Improvement that Pays Off

Kelly L. Macdonald | July 27th, 2015



Homeowners are always looking to add value to their homes.  Many of them are operating under the mistaken belief that every major improvement will add to the home’s value and pay for itself when it is time to sell.  The truth is that not all home improvements are created equal when it comes to enhancing value.  Some improvements will be eye-catching or make the home more livable, but will not add to the home’s value at all.  That is why it is important to consult with your Realtor before undertaking large-scale improvements or renovations.  Over time, replacement windows is one improvement that often pays for itself in both the short and long-term analysis.

On a short-term basis, replacement windows start to pay for themselves immediately following installation through monthly energy bill savings on heating and cooling costs. In Calgary’s long heating season, quality, airtight windows take on an added importance.  As an added bonus, today’s homeowners do not need to sacrifice beauty and aesthetic appeal for energy efficiency. Energy-efficient replacement windows are available at all price points in a wide variety of styles and materials.  The windows can reduce your home’s carbon footprint while enhancing its visual appeal at the same time.

In the long-term, replacement windows can increase your home’s value because it is one of the major improvements buyers always want to see.  Everyone can appreciate the value of beautiful, energy-efficient windows.  As we all work harder to reduce our energy consumption in all phases of our lives, quality windows become even more important.
If you are a homeowner wrestling with the question of replacement windows, please do not lose any more sleep pondering the question in a drafty bedroom.  Replacement windows are a wise investment whether you are planning to sell in the near future or stay in your home until you are old and grey.  This is one home improvement nearly everyone agrees upon.
