When shopping for replacement windows, you?ll find an almost endless list of styles and options. As you begin a home remodeling project, you'll want to know about various window styles and how they can complement your home. Here are some common types of replacement windows:
  • Awning windows - hinge at the top and open out
  • Bay window - typically a large window with the center that extends outward in a curve
  • Casement windows - hinge at the side and crank outward and are often used beside a bay window
  • Double hung windows - open vertically with a sash that slides up and down
  • Gliding windows - open horizontally with a sash that slides to one side
  • Picture windows - stationary windows that are more decorative than functional

How to Decide

Ideally, the style of replacement window should complement the design of your home. If you have an old house with double hung windows, look for a wood or vinyl replacement window to blend with your existing architecture. If you live in a contemporary ranch with casement windows, then stick with the same style when remodeling.

Consider Decorative Elements

The replacement windows you select also should match the level of detail in your existing windows. If you have casement windows with detailed trim around them, then try to match the window style and trim.

Other Window Guidelines

There are times when mixing the style of replacement windows makes sense. If you plan to replace all your windows as part of an ongoing home remodeling project, then put the new style in the spaces that you are renovating. Try to replace windows in large sections if you can. Replace the entire first or second floor and the back or front of the house at once.

Consider Low Maintenance Replacement Windows

If you are tired of your old windows and the maintenance they require, consider vinyl replacement windows. These types of windows do not require painting and can be cleaned easily. They also are a low cost alternative to wood windows.

With the right replacement windows, you can enjoy lots of light and wonderful views for years to come.
