Home owners who are considering replacing one or more windows in their homes can easily find themselves overwhelmed these days, because there are more varieties and options available than ever before.

Listed below are 3 of the most popular trends in replacement windows we’ve seen Staten Island recently, and they look set to stay for the foreseeable future.

Vinyl Windows Are Everywhere:

These are the most affordable choice when buying windows, and in all cases are cheaper than buying traditional wood windows and newer composite windows.

If you’re looking to replace your windows on a budget, and lets face it most homeowners are, then you can expect a vinyl window to be half the cost of others.

Vinyl replacement windows are also maintenance free and wont need to be sanded, varnished and painted every few years like traditional wood windows.

Add in the fact that vinyl window manufacturers offer custom colors on the exterior and wood grains textures on the interior and these windows will offer you the look of traditional windows for half the cost.

Energy Efficient Windows Save Money:

While more homeowners than ever are focusing on making their properties as energy-efficient as possible, it’s only natural to begin with energy efficient replacement windows.

With countless energy efficient options like, low-e glass packages filled with argon gas, foam injected frames and sashes. The windows manufactured today can reduce your energy bills by up to 20%.

Large Picture Windows & Transoms:

A popular trend in Staten Island homes is the open floor plan. Staten Islanders are taking down walls, and raising ceilings. These large windows offer stunning views and let in a tremendous amount of natural light complimenting any open space.

Picture windows are the most energy efficient option because they don’t open and have no mechanical hardware for air to penetrate. When you add in the energy efficiency of these windows, with the stunning views, it’s easy to see why Picture windows have become so popular.
