Repair or Replace Windows: What’s Best for Your Home?

At Encore Home Improvements, we understand that deciding whether to repair or replace your windows can be a difficult choice. Sometimes, a simple fix—like replacing a seal, repairing a broken mechanism, or adjusting the humidity levels in your home—can solve the problem. However, if your windows are nearing the end of their lifespan or are showing signs of mould, these fixes may only provide a temporary solution.

Mould damages your home and can lead to serious health risks, so it’s essential to identify the source of the problem quickly. If your windows show signs of age, it might be time to consider a full replacement.

The Benefits of Replacing Your Windows

Replacing your windows can significantly improve your home’s thermal comfort and energy efficiency. If you've been dealing with drafts and air leaks, new windows can make a world of difference. Double-glazed windows are now the standard, offering superior insulation that helps keep your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.

According to Hydro-Québec, choosing energy-efficient windows can help reduce heating costs by up to 10%. In addition to improving comfort and lowering utility bills, new windows can increase the value of your home.

If you're considering upgrading to energy-efficient windows, don’t forget to check if you qualify for the Canada Greener Homes Grant, which can help cover renovation costs.
