When you’re thinking about new house windows, it may be tempting to get the cheapest Chicago window installation you can find—especially if you’re on a tight budget. But basing your window choice on price alone can have serious long-term consequences, including:
- Drafty, leaky, or ill-fitting installations
- Bland, store-bought style that lowers curb appeal
- Low energy efficiency and costly energy bills
- Repeated expenses for repair or replacement
The Value-Adding Benefits of Custom Windows
At My WindowWorks, we specialize in fully customized window installations—so we know we may seem biased. But we prioritize custom windows for a reason! These features outperform their standardized counterparts in nearly every way:
1. Quality Installations
Because custom windows are custom-measured and -fabricated to your home’s exact specifications, you’re guaranteed a better-fitting Chicago window installation with less demolition. You can say goodbye to leaks and drafts, while also saving time and money on future repairs. High-quality installations mean better durability and performance over time!
2. Certified Energy Efficiency (and Cost Savings!)
Closer fits automatically translate into better energy efficiency, as they prevent outside air from seeping in and climate-controlled air from leaking out. But custom windows also guarantee energy efficiency by letting you have complete control over their features.
Stick with the standard options for generally recommended levels of energy efficiency, or select upgraded glazing, glass coatings,and gas-filled air chambers for a window that beats the Summer heat.
3. Cohesive Style
Beyond their superior fit, choosing custom windows also ensures that your windows complement your interior and exterior décor. Because you can choose your favorite design elements (like color, finish, grid pattern, and hardware), your new windows are sure to fit seamlessly into your existing architecture and aesthetic.
4. Resale Value
Because custom windows contribute to a lower-maintenance, more energy-efficient, and more attractive home, they often bump up a home’s resale value. If you’re considering a Chicago window installation for primarily resale purposes, speak to My WindowWorks’s skilled designers to make the right choices based on the local housing market as well as your neighborhood and property value.
