Spring is perhaps the most popular time of year to make home improvement upgrades,
including [window replacement](https://mycoastalwindows.com/replacement-windows/franklin-ma/).
Here in New England, there is pride in homeownership at every turn—and new windows
can give an ample upgrade to your exterior.

### Selecting Windows to Style Your Curb Appeal

If your goal is to improve the look of your home, you’re in luck with many window
styles available today. We engineer **custom windows that capture the true architectural
features of New England homes. **This _keeps the exterior of your home looking as
[authentic as possible without losing character](https://mycoastalwindows.com/3-exterior-remodeling-trends-for-charming-new-england-homes/)._

 * **Double-hung windows **complement most architectural styles for New England 
   homes. They are essentially the _little black dress _for window styles. Typically
   wider than tall, these windows adorn many architectures including Colonial, Cape
   Cod, Ranch, and Victorian.
 * **Casement windows **are a spinoff of the classic double-hung window, featuring
   a crank-out handle for operation. Similar in shape to the double-hung, these 
   windows also add curb appeal to many types of homes including Tudors and Craftsman.
 * **Picture windows **allow ample amounts of sunlight into the home. Since they
   are engineered of mostly all glass, these look stunning in contemporary home 
   styles. Although picture windows don’t provide ventilation, they are excellent
   insulators when installed by a professional.
 * **Geometric windows **are a stunning upgrade for homeowners wanting extra character
   for their curb appeal. Geometric styles include circle, oval, trapezoid, eyebrow,
   quarter-round, and more.

[Check out our page](https://mycoastalwindows.com/windows/types/) on the different
window types to learn more.

Replacement windows are known for improving curb appeal all throughout New England.
_Choose 100% virgin vinyl window frames, made of the highest quality PVC_. This 
ensures that the windows do not peel, chip, rot, or warp which can immediately downgrade
your curb appeal.

## Reduce Mold, Improve Indoor Air Quality with Springtime Home Window Upgrades

Springtime can be a damp time of year, bringing excess moisture that can increase
the chance of mold growth.

Mold growth can occur when moisture makes its way through several entry points of
the window, including the frame, the sash, and where the sash meets the sill. If
left undetected, eventually mold can grow on different areas of the window frames,
sill, and even the walls.

**New windows protect against mold with a moisture-resistant seal. **With professional
window installation, moisture is unable to creep through entry points of the window
and cause issues such as mold growth. Wood window frames are also affected by moisture
with peeling paint and even wood rot.

_New residential windows can improve the air quality in your home in the following
ways:_

 * According to the [United States Environmental Protection Agency](https://www.epa.gov/indoor-air-quality-iaq/improving-indoor-air-quality),
   one of the best ways to **improve indoor air quality is with ventilation. **After
   a long winter of running your HVAC system, fresh air isn’t coming into your home.
   When weather permits, you can open your windows to get fresh air inside. Some
   of the best windows for ventilation are **casement windows and slide windows.**
 * Furthermore, opening your windows and simultaneously running fans can further
   improve air quality. _Switch your fan to rotate in a _[_counterclockwise direction_](https://www.energystar.gov/products/ceiling_fans/installation-and-usage-tips)_
   for the spring and summer months!_
 * New windows are easy to open and slide operate quite easily. If you are struggling
   to open and close your current windows, it’s a sign that window replacement is
   in order.
 * For best results on reducing moisture and drafts, choose windows with the lowest
   CFM rating of air leakage per minute. For example, Coastal Windows & Exteriors
   offers a window with a .01 CFM rating as opposed to Pella or Andersen windows
   with .12-.30 CFM.

While spring window renovation services can prevent mold growth and improve air 
quality, they can also help reduce allergens in the home.

If your [windows are drafty](https://mycoastalwindows.com/drafty-windows/), they
can potentially help pollen make its way inside. Professionally installed windows
are airtight and allow little-to-no pollen to pass through!

## Boosting Your Property Value for Resale

Thinking of selling your home this spring season? [Late spring](https://www.lendingtree.com/home/mortgage/best-time-for-selling-your-house/)
is the most popular time of year to put your home on the market. While the current
housing market has homes going for sky-high prices, **you can offer even more value
to potential buyers by installing custom spring window designs.** But how does this
work?

It’s best to choose projects that have a proven track record for return on investment.
One way to keep tabs on this is by following the Cost vs. Value Report by Remodeling,
which is available each spring.

With replacement windows, New England and Boston-area homeowners can expect a  71.5%
return on investment**. This means you’ll see over 70% of your money returned to
you when you go to sell your home.**

Meanwhile, home buyers want energy efficient windows. In fact, 83% of home buyers
say that energy efficient windows, certified by Energy Star, are either **essential
or desirable **when it comes to choosing a new home.

**Keep in mind that not all windows will yield a top resale value. **Remodeling 
specifically states that **quality vinyl windows **yield the best return on investment,
which means:

 * The window frames are created from virgin vinyl
 * Choose replacement windows with high-performance glass packages, which provide
   additional insulation — beneficial for every season!
 * Low-e application helps to keep your home cool in the summer by reflecting the
   sun’s rays away from your home. During the winter, the opposite is true as sunlight
   will help naturally warm your space.
