A window’s style plays an important role in a home’s architecture. It should frame the structure in a way that feels consistent and intentional. Its proportions, grille patterns, finishes, and handles should complement the building’s aesthetic.
Houston Window Experts offers a wide selection of window styles and designs for homeowners. Their products help reduce energy consumption, noise, water, and air infiltration. They also offer impact-resistant windows that protect homes from storms and hurricanes.
Modern
A home’s windows can show signs of wear and age with aging, warping or rotting frames and glass. These signs can also include high energy bills and a cold, drafty house.
Choose a local window installer that has years of experience serving Pasadena homeowners. Look for accreditations from industry associations and request references to ensure they deliver a quality installation and customer service.
Wood windows offer a timeless design that complements many architectural styles. They require regular upkeep, though, so make sure you’re ready for the responsibility before investing in this style. Today’s wood storm windows can insulate well, block UV rays and brighten rooms with natural light.
Traditional
When it comes to window replacement, choosing the right material is crucial. Aluminum offers a sleek, contemporary appearance but isn’t as energy efficient as other options. Fiberglass is a popular choice because it offers durability and minimal maintenance needs, while also providing good insulation.
If you’re looking for a blend of functionality and style, double-hung windows are a great option. These windows hinge at the top and allow both the upper and lower panels to move, which allows for ventilation—a good choice during Pasadena’s hot summers. To improve your energy efficiency even further, consider clad-wood windows, which combine wood interiors for aesthetics with aluminum or vinyl exteriors for durability.
Contemporary
Energy efficiency is one of the main concerns of homeowners looking for replacement windows. Double-pane windows with argon gas provide superior insulation, keeping homes warm in the winter and cool in the summer. They also reduce humidity levels and protect carpets and furniture.
Wood storm windows offer a classic look that complements traditional homes. Today’s models use low e glass to improve insulation. Clad-wood windows combine a wood interior for aesthetics with an aluminum or vinyl exterior for durability.
If you want a window with ventilation without opening your home, consider casement windows. Hinged on the side, they swing open to catch a breeze.
Historical
Historic homes require windows that are authentically designed to fit the architectural style. AWP works closely with homeowners, architects, and builders to create custom window designs that honor historic architecture with proportions, shapes, grille patterns, and more.
Choosing the right replacement windows can improve your home’s energy efficiency and lower your utility bills. Look for a fiberglass or aluminum frame that resists swelling and warping in Texas’ extreme temperatures.
Single-hung windows open and close on the bottom sash for ventilation, while double-hung windows offer the same ventilation with both upper and lower sashes moving up and down. Modern wood storm windows with low e glass and exterior thermal breaks help you save energy and protect carpet and furniture.
Energy-Efficient
Avoid high energy bills and a cold home with new windows that are designed to stay cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Choose from a wide range of styles and materials to suit your needs, including fiberglass, composite, steel, aluminum, and wood.
Energy-efficient windows minimize heat transfer and ease the burden on your HVAC system, leading to lower energy bills and a more eco-friendly household. Double-pane and triple-pane windows are the most efficient options, but they also come in a range of price points to fit any budget. Look for a window replacement provider that has extensive local experience and carries the right accreditations to ensure you get quality work.
Hurricane-Resistant
Your home is your most important investment and keeps your loved ones and valuable belongings safe from the elements. It’s essential to protect it with products that can withstand the worst storms, whether from weather or intruders.
High-performance replacement hurricane windows provide a layer of security that can withstand repeated blows from bats, crowbars or hammers, making it more difficult for intruders to break into your home. They also offer superior impact resistance, energy efficiency and a beautiful look that’s low maintenance. Look for local installers with long-standing experience to ensure a great installation. Ask for references and customer feedback. Also, choose an accredited provider that offers a non-prorated lifetime warranty.
