HOW TO COMPARE THE COST OF
DIFFERENT REPLACEMENT
WINDOWS
 Consider Maintenance Requirements
 Wooden windows are often more affordable than materials like
aluminum or fiberglass, but they require more maintenance to keep
in proper working order over time. Think about the maintenance
requirements of windows when purchasing them and factor those
costs into the costs of your windows as well. You might not want to
perform maintenance regularly on your windows, which means that
you’ll have to spend the extra cash for low-maintenance windows
instead.
 Think About the Warranty
 Warranty is another important consideration when buying windows
and considering the cost of them. A comprehensive warranty is
worth added money on top of the price of a standard window. A
good solid warranty guarantees that you’ll enjoy long-lasting
performance from your new windows after they are installed.
Without a long-term warranty there’s a better chance that the
windows will fail prematurely and that you’ll be left paying the cost
of repairs in the future.
