This is a long overdue post about our windows.
There were a few that were still the old wood ones.
The rest were old aluminum single pane.
Somewhere along the line the house had been painted using a spray gun, and there was overspray on most of them.
I changed this one and the one on the other side of the door out myself.
That's when I decided I wouldn't be able to do the rest by myself.
The aluminum windows were difficult to remove, and the new windows were so much heavier.
The new windows are single hung low-e vinyl.
They are so much better at sound proofing.
They definitely help with the heating/cooling situation here in Texas.
And now I can see out the windows!
So much more light comes in too!
Here's an in progress before & after.
While we were at it, we changed up the wall of windows in the Dining Room.
We went from this,
to this,
and finally, to this!
We added a window to the garage/family room.
The new windows have added so much charm and coziness to our home.
Money well spent!
