What materials will work best? How do I form a budget for my renovations? <\/em>These kinds of questions are weighted; they depend on so many factors it can make your head spin!<\/p>\n<p>Personally, for the big decisions in life, I tend to subscribe to a systematic process of elimination. I make a list of manageable tasks\/processes, and I knock \u2018em out! So, for a project like a whole-home window replacement, for example, I look at a small decision first and then expand.<\/p>\n<p>There are <strong>three major categories of windows<\/strong> to consider: material, color, and budget. My advice to you (as a long-time expert here at <em>R&amp;M Quality Windows &amp; Doors<\/em>) is to set color and budget aside (just for now!) and focus on the material. Every window type comes in a range of colors and budget\u2014you just need to choose an avenue.<\/p>\n<p>Ok, we\u2019ve funneled our attention to one category. Now, let\u2019s choose from the <strong>common window materials <\/strong>and funnel our focus a bit more:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Vinyl<\/li>\n<li>Wood<\/li>\n<li>Aluminum<\/li>\n<li>Fiberglass<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This list can feel overwhelming\u2014let\u2019s break it down. Focus on <strong>one material<\/strong> and work through it. First up: Vinyl.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Vinyl Windows\u2014are these for you?<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong>Now, we\u2019ve arrived at a manageable, systematic item to unpack: vinyl windows. What is there to know and will these work for your Dublin, CA, home? Pay attention to the following mini-categories! And, if all checks out\u2014your decision-making is complete!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><u>Environmentally friendliness<\/u>: HIGH.<br \/>\nBeing good to Mother Earth is high on many homeowner\u2019s priority lists. Vinyl windows outlast most other window materials on the market and are completely recyclable.<\/li>\n<li><u>Affordability<\/u>: GREAT.<br \/>\nVinyl windows are known for their affordability. You can get the desired look and quality you want, for much less.<\/li>\n<li><u>Durability<\/u>: HIGH.<br \/>\nVinyl windows will outlast others. They are fade-resistant and chip-resistant. They will not rust, pit, rot, or warp!<\/li>\n<li><u>Maintenance required<\/u>: LOW.<br \/>\nWith other window materials comes a bit of upkeep. With vinyl, however, you are looking at very minimal effort to keep them looking like new. A couple times a year you can take mild soap and water to the frames to shine them up and keep them looking beautiful. Because vinyl holds its color and texture well, you will never need to repaint, re-stain, sand, or buff.<\/li>\n<li><u>Compatibility<\/u>: GOOD.<br \/>\nThere are some home styles which require specific windows\u2014but very few. For example, if you own a historic building, vinyl windows will likely not be your first choice (as the integrity of the building and its unique historic features need to be honored). But, virtually any other home style is the perfect structure for vinyl window replacements! They come in various styles and colors, wood grain, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Hope this helps!
