Things to know if you go:

Paint, siding, and light fixtures are common updates homeowners make to their home’s exterior. However, swapping out windows and doors can have a similar effect while adding additional protection to your home. We tagged along with the Renewal by Andersen team to see how an installation can improve a home’s exterior.

Experience:

Refreshing your home with new windows + doors from Renewal by Andersen 🪟

What we tried (with pricing):

We followed an installation from start to finish. The hassle-free process starts with a free in-home consultation, in which Renewal’s design consultants listen to customer needs and create a plan to improve energy efficiency and enhance the home’s beauty. #ProTip: Explore window styles + color options ahead of your consultation.

After a design plan is confirmed, Renewal’s technicians build custom windows + doors to fit your home. Installation times vary by project.

In this instance, a family decided to replace all exterior windows and their front door.

What not to miss:

Not every home is built the same. Renewal’s custom shaping process allows techs to create windows to any shape, meaning they can match any home’s architectural style or define a new look.

Renewal’s custom process also offers customers a wide palette of long-lasting colors to choose from — including dark exterior colors not found with most other replacement windows.

What we’re still talking about:

In North Carolina, the average monthly residential electricity bill is ~$117. Investing in energy-efficient windows + doors can help reduce your energy consumption and your energy costs.

Renewal’s energy-efficient windows are designed to help keep the outside elements at bay so customers can enjoy a comfortable and affordable home temperature. They also offer various glass options with unique benefits for heating, cooling, visible light transfer, and UV reduction — all contributing to energy efficiency.
