Replacement windows and doors increase home value

The decision to update your exterior doors is rarely on the top of your home improvement list. However, your entry doors are a huge reflection on the overall look of your home. We all know there’s only one chance to make a first impression, and your doors are the first thing guests and visitors see when they enter your home. Old, weathered doors with outdated hardware, worn hinges and damaged weatherstripping detract from your home’s curb appeal. Your primary entrance doors are subject to the extremes of seasonal weather and suffer the abuse of daily use. Replacement doors are a great way to upgrade the look of your home. A new full-system door is highly customizable and can be constructed with many different styles of glass, hardware and panel designs to suit your interior and exterior decor. New doors also offer an added measure of security to your home.

Lifetime warranties are just one of the many benefits of installing replacement windows in your home. Regardless of the style you choose, your new windows are customizable to suit your available frame space, which is important for owners of older century homes full of unusually sized and shaped windows. There are many different window styles, including single- and double-hung, single and double sliders, three-lite sliders and casement windows. For sweeping panoramic views, bow and bay windows are great additions, adding value and esthetic appeal to any living space.
