Windows not only provide a view to the outside world and bring nature’s beauty inside your home, they can set the stage for its interior design, mood, and appearance. Windows add natural light and ventilation, thus providing a brighter and airy feeling in every room. They also are a critical component in overall energy efficiency, serving as an insulator between the heat of summer and cold of winter on the outside and balanced heating and cooling on the inside.
Windows are available in a variety of materials and styles, with vinyl, fiberglass, and aluminum-clad wood being the most preferred types. Fixed (non-opening), single-hung or double-hung, slider, and casement windows provide an assortment of ventilation options, and numerous colors and design features such as grilles in the glass can help customize a look to complement your home’s design.

- Vinyl — Vinyl windows are budget favorable, energy efficient, and low maintenance due to never needing to be painted or refinished. Exterior and interior color options can be identical or differ, and select optional insulating features enable greater energy efficiency.
- Fiberglass — Fiberglass is the strongest material for windows and provides a more modern look to a home. Engineered for lasting durability, they are resistant to dents and breaks, will not expand and contract in heat and cold temperatures, and are low maintenance by being resistant to rot and corrosion and maintaining color over their lifetime.
- Aluminum-clad Wood — Warmth and design flexibility as well as a high level of energy efficiency are key benefits of aluminum-clad wood windows. Aluminum cladding over the wooden exterior provides protection against harsh weather impacts and numerous paint and stain options for the wooden interior contribute to an array of style and design options that can enhance your home’s traditional or modern style.
