PJ Fitzpatrick is Delaware Valley’s trusted home improvement team. If your windows are worn out, this can lower the curb appeal and energy efficiency of your home. We can install replacement windows that will look and function beautifully. Once we install the new windows, it’s important to maintain them. Here’s how to maintain replacement windows so they keep working and looking like new.
If you just had new windows installed, you may be wondering how you can make them last as long as possible. Your new windows are designed to be low-maintenance, durable, and long-lasting, but there are a few easy things you can do to properly maintain replacement windows.
Your windows are designed to be opened and closed daily over the course of several decades. However, you can prevent minor damages by gently opening and closing them each time. Avoid slamming windows or using excessive force to protect them from damage. You should also tell everyone in your home to use care when opening and closing the new windows.
Dirt and debris can stain your windows and ruin the vinyl framing. Regularly cleaning your windows inside and out will prolong their life and keep them looking pristine for many years. It’s easy for dust and dead bugs to build up in window sills, so vacuuming them or wiping them down each week will prevent nasty, damaging build-up.
Any automobile mechanic will tell you that the best way to maintain your car is by keeping up with repairs, no matter how minor. The same principle applies to your replacement windows. If you notice small damages, you should have them repaired immediately to prevent problems from snowballing. Broken locks and damaged seals are two common damages. Keeping on top of these small repairs will prolong the life of your windows.
