Windows are crucial in your home's energy efficiency, comfort, and appearance. Over time, however, even the best windows may need replacement. So, how do you know it’s time? If you feel drafts near closed windows, notice condensation between panes, or struggle to open and close them, these are clear signs your windows may need an upgrade. Rising energy bills and visible damage like cracks or warped frames also indicate that replacement is necessary.



When Is the Best Time to Replace Them?

Windows can be replaced at any time of year, but certain seasons may offer better conditions. We typically find spring and summer ideal because of the warmer weather and minimal indoor discomfort. Fall is another great time, as it allows you to prepare your home for winter while avoiding harsh weather conditions. However, if your windows are severely damaged, don’t wait—addressing the issue immediately can prevent further complications.

Who Should I Talk To?

Choosing the right window replacement company is key when replacing your windows. At Welsh Windows Plus, we specialize in providing tailored advice and professional installation services for South Chicagoland homeowners. Whether you need a single window replaced or an entire home upgrade, our team is here to guide you every step of the way.

Can I Replace My Windows By Myself?

While DIY projects can be rewarding, window replacement is a task best left to professionals. Precision is crucial, and improper installation can lead to drafts, leaks, and other issues. Professionals use specialized tools and techniques that ensure your windows are installed correctly the first time. Additionally, many warranties require professional installation to remain valid. By trusting an expert like us, you’re investing in peace of mind and long-lasting results.
