The Best Times to Replace Your Windows and Doors

Are you on the fence about replacing your windows and doors because it's hard to find the right time to go through with a project like this? It's a tricky balance to make sure all of the stars align for season, budget, and the time you have available. This is a common frustration for many homeowners. The stress of it all can make replacing windows and doors frustrating and unpleasant. Don't worry – we're here to help!
 
To ease those frustrations, we’ve compiled a few tips to help guide you through it all.

​Replacing Your Windows and Doors Based on Seasons

When it comes to replacing windows and doors in central Arizona, the seasons can play a significant role. Most people choose to schedule the installation process during the mild seasons. However, this means that the mild seasons are usually the busiest for window companies. If you decide to replace windows or doors during the temperate seasons, be sure to schedule early because spaces fill up quickly.

​Choosing the winter or summer months for your home improvement project can certainly have its perks. Window companies tend to offer better discounts and can be more flexible with project timeframes. 
 
Tip: Beware of monsoon season from June to September. While we can replace windows during this time, we recommend replacing any old, broken, or leaky windows beforehand for your safety and security.
 

Replacing Your Windows and Doors Based on Budget
​
Windows and doors are one of those purchases you will typically only have to make once or twice in your lifetime. If you know that you will need to replace your windows in the near future, we recommend doing your research early. Give yourself plenty of time to find out which type of window frames and features you like best. Once you've done this, get 2-3 quotes and base your budget on the research you've done. More often than not, people don’t have a large enough budget for the windows they end up falling in love with and have to settle for less. So don’t forget to give yourself plenty of time to research early, set a budget, and start saving! 
 
Tip: On the off chance that you need to replace your windows right away due to damage or security issues, most window companies offer great financing options to make it simpler and more convenient to get the work done now and pay later.
 
 
Replacing Your Windows and Doors as Part of the Home Remodeling Process
​
One of the biggest mistakes people make undertaking the massive task of remodeling their home room by room is not knowing when to replace the windows and doors. Windows are a structural element, so replacing them early in the remodeling process will be one factor in ensuring the integrity of your home structure. 
 
The new window style you choose will also impact the interior design choices you make. Consider what happens if you decide to replace your current double-hung windows with a bay window or a beautiful picture window. Your view and perspective of the room will change dramatically and will therefore have a strong influence on which cabinets, flooring, light, or even décor you want.
