Replacement windows can give a whole different look

New windows a whole different look!

We just had some of our older windows replaced by WindowsPlus from Media, they use a vinyl replacement window by Okna. It was a simple process and went much faster than I thought it would, here are some photos that show the before and after and the process.

old windows

Actually this is a really old photo and we had just replaced the large picture window a little while ago and added some shutters, split levels are hard to give good curb appeal, we have worked hard on the garden and that has improved a lot but these old windows were a pain, never opening well, or closing either.

new windows

We replaced the casements with double hung with grids on the front, a much nicer look and easier to have open even when it is raining lightly.

Here they had two old windows out, they were all Pella, I would never have a Pella Window again, the hardware broke, and several of the windows just rotted out. They simply pop out the old window and pop in the new window, secure, wrap the frames with new metal coil and it is all done.

installed

The windows at the back of the house we left out the grids, so it is consistent with the other windows across the back, a nice clean look.

What do you prefer, double hung, casements or even a slider that goes left and right?
