How Installing Energy-Efficient Windows in Sikeston Saves You Money

Energy-efficient windows can benefit you in more than one way. Here are a few reasons you may want to consider making the switch:

• Protect your valuables: The low-emissivity coatings on many energy-efficient windows help prevent damage from the sun's UV rays to your floors, carpets and furniture.
• Decrease your carbon footprint: Reducing the amount of energy you use also lowers your carbon emissions. You could reduce it by about 763 pounds.
• Protect your investment: The older your home is, the more likely it is that switching to energy-efficient windows will benefit you. Older homes usually have windows that are outdated, drafty or potentially even damaged in some way. Upgrading your windows could help raise the value of your home if you decide to sell.
• Save on energy bills: Since energy-efficient windows reduce the amount of energy used to heat or cool your home, the switch can help you save around $367 annually on your energy bills in Sikeston.

Estimated Cost of Window Replacement in Sikeston

Windows come in various purposes, styles and shapes, so costs and services will vary tremendously depending on several factors. Below, we describe the average cost and services that you'll find from window installers.

How Much Do New Windows Cost?

Generally, Sikeston homeowners can expect their window replacements to range from $250 to $1,200. The average cost sits at around $600. But costs differ considerably based on the size of your home, complexity of the installation, your location and the quality of the company you choose. Many window companies also offer door installations, which will make your project cost more.

With windows, efficiency is one of the most important factors for many homeowners. High efficiency windows may cost more initially, but by increasing the efficiency of your home — especially if you live in a hot climate — they can give you many years of energy savings. According to Energy Star, purchasing certified energy-efficient windows can save Sikeston homeowners $367+ a year after replacing single-pane windows.

We advise requesting free quotes from several window installation companies to find the right windows and the company that works best for you.

What Services do Window Installers Offer?

There are generally two types of window replacement services: full-frame and pocket installations.

A full-frame installation is a replacement of the full window. It involves taking out the old window, the sill, and the exterior and interior trim. It can also involve additional materials, including insulation and drip edges, which raise the total cost of the project. It's also worth noting that it's not uncommon for homeowners to have to touch up the paint surrounding the window after a full-frame installation. Pocket installations (or retrofits) entail replacing a window within the existing frame, which makes pocket installations more simple and affordable. However, if the frame has any damage or rot, you will likely need a full-frame installation instead.

Your window installation company will be able to advise you on the best type for your project. In Sikeston, the choice will mostly be influenced by the efficiency of your home and the age of your existing frames.

How We Choose the Best Window Installers in Sikeston

EcoWatch is different from most reviewers, as we look at these companies through a sustainability lens. Along with energy efficiency, we reviewed several window installers in Sikeston and ranked them using the following methodology:

Service Area

Because this is a guide for Sikeston, we gave more points to companies that provide services to the city. There are certainly reputable providers that didn't make our list because of the low odds that they would serve the average homeowner in Sikeston.

Work Quality

When installing new windows, the quality and range of services can often play just as important of a role in overall efficiency and performance as the brand of window you opt for. We do rate window installers higher if they offer high-quality products, but we also consider workmanship as reflected in customer feedback.

Customer Reviews

We analyzed patterns in recent online reviews to determine the companies with the highest rates of customer satisfaction, weighted by sample size. Customer satisfaction may be the most important factor, as it reflects the quality of services across most other categories, including professionalism, cost, quality of installation, warranty, quality of parts and more.

Cost

Cheaper windows don't necessarily mean better windows, but we know many of our readers would like to keep costs as low as possible. When analyzing providers' prices, we gave higher scores to companies with reasonable prices and accessible financing rather than "cheaper" services.

Warranty

As discussed previously, windows are a hefty investment, so you'll want to make sure that investment is protected. Window installation companies that give you lengthy warranties for products, parts and installation (aka workmanship) rank higher with EcoWatch.

Years of Experience

Lastly, we like to see companies that have been in the industry for a while. Window installation companies that have more experience will earn higher rankings by our standards. We like to see at least ten years of experience.
