Window Replacement During Winter: Is It Okay?
The importance of windows in your home cannot be overstated. They allow for visual access to the outside world while also offering ventilation, natural light, warmth and energy efficiency. In seasons like summer and winter, energy-efficiency is very crucial. In some cases, window replacement in the winter is really useful, contrary to popular belief. Will it be okay to replace windows during winter? Window replacement expert Kroll Construction is here to tell you!
Better Scheduling Choices
Because most construction and home repair businesses are closed throughout the winter, having your windows changed during this time means fewer problems and issues with costs and scheduling. Because there are fewer homeowners who want their homes fixed, packages and services are less expensive. Some companies even provide discounts! For the same reason, scheduling is a lot easier, therefore wise homeowners take advantage of this season!
Replacement Windows: Tips During Winter
Getting replacement windows during winter saves time and money, but it’s also the season of snow and cold weather, so there are environmental and external elements that could put homeowners at risk. However, there are a variety of solutions to these issues, including:
- Making sure that during the installation process, one window is removed/replaced at a time to prevent snow and cold air from entering the house.
- Covering big holes with plastic floor-to-ceiling barriers. This is particularly helpful when installing bay or bow windows. However, you should address this with your window installation team.
- Closing all doors and other commonly used entryways or openings to prevent cold air from entering and warm air from escaping.
- Maintaining a high level of cleanliness at all times, since snow-covered boots of contractors going in and out of your home may track dirt and moisture onto the floor. Making sure to clean and constantly sterilize high-traffic areas thoroughly is key to having a safe working environment for the workers and lessening the chances of COVID-19 contaminated areas.
