A Harvard University study estimates that Americans spend an average of $160 billion for home remodeling projects each year. A year ago, many remodeling jobs returned 80 percent of their cost or more when the owner sold the house, but those numbers are changing.

Some of the most profitable renovations, such as an upscale vinyl residing, actually paid off more – 103.6 percent – more than they cost. In the Middle Atlantic States, vinyl siding replacement returns 92.3 percent of its cost, well above the national average of 87.2 percent, while in the Southwest the same job returns just 80.9 percent of the cost. That makes residing your home the most profitable home renovation.

Other profitable renovations included midrange kitchen remodels, which paid off 91.7 percent, and vinyl window replacement, which paid off 89.6 percent, making it the third best remodeling investment.

The least profitable renovation – a home office remodel, which only recoups only 63.4 percent of its cost.

Top 3 Reasons To Replace Your Windows

Are you having trouble keeping the temperature regulated in your home with northern Indiana’s crazy weather? Windows from Trim-A-Seal can help maintain a constant temperature in your home by keeping what you want inside and everything else out. In order for windows to operate effectively you must have them well sealed with double or triple paned glass. Not only will the saves show on your energy bill but saving extend to tax rebates, and the crib appeal of your home. We created a list of the top 3 reason to replace your windows in preparation for the hot summer months. Check them out below:

1. Save money on energy bills. By using quality windows you can ensure that your home uses less energy while keeping the hot air out and letting the cool are flow. After receiving a set of new windows from Trim-A-Seal most customers experience a decrease in their monthly utility bills. When you add it up, the windows practically pay for themselves.
2. Old windows tend to be hazardous. Older windows could contain lead which is very dangerous to your health. Not only can you save money, you may be saving a life.
3. Older windows commonly are single paned, which do not reap the same rewards of their double and triple counterparts. By having multi-paned windows, you keep moisture locked out and the heat out. These windows help filter out noise using air or non toxic gases which improves the windows insulation.

As you can see, there are a lot of reasons to replace your windows this spring. Visit www.trimaseal.com or call 1.800.217.6355 to setup an appointment today.  We look forward to hearing from you.

 
Sincerely,
Mr. & Mrs. Jeff George
