Getting replacement windows is a big decision. You not only have to choose replacement window styles and materials, but you also have to set aside time for window installation. And while installation crews can absolutely install new windows any time of the year, there is a time that often works best—springtime. Here are just a few reasons why spring is such a great time to schedule your custom window replacement and installation.
Good Weather
First and foremost, spring has milder weather, which is great for window installation. Too much moisture and colder temperatures can slow down the process and sometimes cause caulking to fail. Also when your old windows are removed, your home is exposed to the elements for an extended period of time. Mild temperatures mean you can stay comfortable without excessive energy losses.
Less Movement Substrate
In line with mild temperatures also comes less movement for substrate. This is the expansion and contraction most materials have when exposed to differing temperatures. Spring installations means there is less drastic change from night to day, the material does not expand and contract as much during installation. This is good, and can help prolong the life of your window seals and insulation.
Easy Scheduling
A lot of homeowners tackle improvement projects during the summer. This means you could be dealing with a backlog of work and longer wait times. In the spring contractors are not as busy and will have more flexibility when it comes to booking appointments and installations. So if this kind of flexibility is important to you, you will want to start booking your appointments right away.
Less Lead Time
When ordering custom window replacement you are at the mercy of the manufacturer and how quickly they can produce your windows and ship them to the installer. But if you start your project early, before the busy season, you can get your products faster.
More Daylight
Notice the days getting longer? This also plays in your favor when it comes to new window installation. Most construction and contract workers keep unique schedules, often going from sun up to sun down. In spring and early summer the days are longer. This means the installation crew can get more accomplished in the daytime with less prep work and fewer site breakdowns in between.
Faster Finish Times
Ultimately this all adds up to faster finish times on custom window replacement. The installation process is a little easier as there is less risk of weather that makes it unsafe to work. Usually the cleanup process is also faster, and fewer problems will arise that could add two or three extra days onto your installation. All around, choosing spring for window replacement is a great option.
