John's Lumber How to Select New Windows

Selecting new or replacement windows for your home is an important investment and can be overwhelming. Advancements in window design have made them more insulative than ever before. John’s Lumber has the window options that will meet your requirements at a sound price. Let’s explore the different window styles and options available today.

Single Family Home Styles

There are many styles of windows which may have been installed in the original construction of your home. These can include awning, bay, casement, gliding, picture, single and double hung, and specialty windows. Standard double-hung windows are designed to function identically to your pre-existing windows. If you have a particular design in mind you can have windows custom built, simply contact our team to get started.

Specialty windows are necessary for uncommon openings which are typically placed for architectural significance.

Materials

Choosing the right material is an important part of the window buying process. Depending on your home’s architecture and location, certain materials are likely to be a better fit than others. Our manufacturers currently produce wood, vinyl, composite, aluminum, and fiberglass windows. For extreme applications, composite and fiberglass windows are excellent at keeping the elements out while resisting wear and tear.

Whether you live on the water or within a suburban development, exposure to the Michigan elements should be the first consideration in this process.

We carry four excellent window manufacturers at John’s Lumber to choose from; Andersen, Jeld-Wen, PlyGem, and Bowman-Kemp.

Our team can find the exact window for your home’s specifications with ease. Please give one of our John’s Lumber team members a call or stop into either of our locations in Clinton Township or Shelby Township.

John's Lumber Windows Let the Light In Keep the Elements Out

Old windows are the top reason for unnecessary loss of cooled and heated air. Unfortunately, most homeowners wait to replace windows until they have deteriorated and have lost their ability to maintain a stable indoor temperature.

Your home’s energy efficiency and protection from the elements relies on its windows! New windows also offer maximum clarity and visibility to the outdoors.

Replacing Old Windows

Modern windows feature energy saving construction and materials to keep heated air in. An efficient home permits natural light to flow in during the day and reduces the amount of heated or cooled air which must be produced to maintain a comfortable environment. Our living spaces are often defined by any level of draftiness, which new windows can prevent.

Old windows are notoriously poor insulators, but what’s also important is how well they keep the elements out! Homes in our area face a wide variety of threats which vary from freezing precipitation to harsh winds and more. These two concerns are especially important to address with winter in full force.

Design and Construction Options

Homes are incredibly unique in our area, so John’s Lumber has partnered with top manufacturers to offer the greatest selection possible. Modern window models are constructed using wood, composite, aluminum, vinyl, and fiberglass.

Our trained window specialists can walk you through the process to ensure your satisfaction. To learn more please visit our windows webpage or stop by our Clinton Township or Shelby Township locations.
