When you get new windows for your home, they aren’t a one-size-fits-all product. The same is true about hurricane windows in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Windows are often a customized product and you have to factor the details you choose into the price of the product. Here are a few things you will want to factor into the final costs of hurricane windows.
The Number Of Windows You Replace
If you have a smaller home, you may only have a few windows to replace. Larger homes often have more windows. It makes sense that the fewer windows you have, the less the overall project will cost. Though, keep in mind, the more windows you buy, the less each window costs individually. You’ll have somewhat of a bulk discount when you buy more windows at a time. So it’s to your advantage to replace all of the windows in your house at once over just a few at a time, in that way.
Any Upgrades You Choose
Hurricane windows are already strong enough to keep hurricanes out, but there are still things you can do to enhance them. Perhaps you want low-E coatings on the glass to allow the sun’s rays through without the heat and dangerous UV rays. You can also add things like grids, tinting, fog, and other such enhancements. These things can customize the windows further and make them truly what you need for your home, but they also cost more.
The Colors
There are some colors that come as a standard on hurricane windows, white being one of them. The color list changes from company to company so you will want to check with the manufacturer you are considering. But when you decide to upgrade to a customized color, it’s going to factor into the final cost as well.
Installation From Professionals
This is one of those costs that handy people feel is optional, but it really isn’t—or at least shouldn’t be. As long as you are investing in hurricane windows, it makes sense to take the extra step and invest in a professional installation as well. Will it cost more than just the windows? Sure. But you want those windows to perform as promised and that can only be guaranteed with a professional installation.
