While most people think about kitchen and bathroom renovations when updating their home, there are plenty of other rooms in your home that can benefit from some changes. In addition, it isn’t just new cabinetry, appliances, countertops, fixtures, walls, and flooring that can make a difference. One feature that you might not have thought about is how you can transform a room with new windows.
Replacing your windows is obviously a wise choice if you can increase energy efficiency in the process, but you can set your sights far higher than that! For example, if you have a room that does not get enough natural light, consider making a current window opening larger to facilitate a bigger window, put in more windows, or add a skylight. A larger window or more of them gives you the added benefit of enjoying the view which can be a real mood booster. Another tip is going with windows that tilt in for easy cleaning so your view is not compromised by a dirty window.
Another transformative benefit you can accomplish with new windows is replacing ones you can’t open with ones that you can. Fresh air entering a room can make it far more enjoyable. You’ll also have the added benefit of being able to exit the room in the event of an emergency.
With so many different styles of windows on the market today, there is no limit to what you can do to transform a room. Consider such unique windows as a bay or bow window, a dormer with a window, uniquely-shaped windows, floor-to-ceiling or wall-to-wall windows, and so much more.
