Fall is the perfect time to tackle the home improvement project you’ve been putting off. The temperatures are mild, and the weather is ideal for spending time outdoors. You might have an idea of the
home improvement project you’d like to start – maybe your garden is overgrown, or you need to repair the shingles on your roof before winter arrives. However, the decision might not be as easy for some homeowners. You might be looking to
increase your home’s energy efficiency or give your home a
curb appeal boost, but you don’t know where to start. If you need a little more inspiration, our home improvement experts shared their recommendations for Fall home improvement projects.
Window Replacement
Fall is one of the best times of year to
replace your windows. You won’t have to worry about your exterior design consultant getting stuck in the snow on the way to your house, and your installation won’t get delayed due to inclement weather. Mild temperatures are also ideal for
window installation – the
caulk that seals your windows adheres best in cooler temperatures.
Replacement windows will give your home an
energy efficiency boost just in time for winter – our windows are built with
premium energy efficiency features to eliminate drafts and keep your home comfortable no matter the season. You might even see savings on your energy bills just in time for the holiday shopping season! When you choose replacement windows from Window Nation, you’ll also enjoy a
curb appeal boost – all our windows are custom-made to meet your home’s needs. Choose from a variety of style and color options to find the perfect fit for your home.
Furnace Upgrades
The last thing you’ll want during the biggest snowstorm of the year is for your furnace to go out. Before the temperatures drop, consider contacting a HVAC maintenance professional to inspect your furnace. They can perform routine maintenance and make repairs if necessary. However, if your furnace is more than 10 years old, they might recommend upgrading it with a modern, more energy efficient HVAC system. Though the cost might seem steep, you’ll enjoy the comfort of knowing you won’t have to make any upgrades or repairs for years to come. When choosing a new furnace, consider purchasing an Energy Star certified system – you could save money on your energy bills.
Siding Replacement
Siding is one of the most overlooked parts of your home, but it’s important to keep it well maintained. If your siding is looking worse-for-wear, you might consider replacing it with modern
vinyl siding from Window Nation. Our siding is available in a variety of colors, giving your home a much-needed
curb appeal boost in time for the holidays. You won’t have to worry about your siding cracking or fading due to inclement weather –
our siding is durable, built to withstand the harshest weather conditions. Vinyl siding will also improve your home’s insulation,
keeping your home comfortable all winter long.
Upgrade Insulation
Your home should feel cozy and comfortable in the Fall, not drafty and chilly. Improve your home’s comfort this Fall by upgrading your home’s insulation. We recommend hiring an expert to conduct a home energy audit to determine the places where you’re losing the most energy. Your attic is one of the biggest culprits due to poor insulation – we recommend upgrading your home’s insulation with fiberglass or foam insulation to keep the chilly air outside. It’s also important to seal any cracks you might find, particularly around your windows and doors, to
eliminate drafts and keep your home comfortable.
Door Replacement
Nearly one-third of residential heating and cooling costs are attributed to energy loss through windows and doors. Why continue to waste money on your energy bills month over month? Consider upgrading your doors to
replacement doors from Window Nation. We offer
entry doors,
French doors, and
sliding doors, each custom-made to fit your home’s needs. Our doors are available in
fiberglass and steel options, so you can choose the best style for your home. You’ll enjoy a
curb appeal boost and added security – all Window Nation doors come standard with a multi-point locking system to make your home more secure.
