Bring the beauty of the outdoors indoors while keeping the heat out where it belongs. When considering window replacement for your Orange County home, that is the number one goal. Modern windows are not only more beautiful and luxurious than ever, but they also have additional safety features and functionality that add value to your home and give homeowners peace of mind.
Modern trends beg for more large windows, but it’s not a trend we see disappearing anytime soon. With windows now able to effectively block heat while providing expansive views, there’s no reason not to expand your window area and let the sun in!
Below are some things to keep in mind if you plan to replace the windows in your Orange County home.
Looking for windows in Orange County? Here are things to consider
Contents
It’s Southern California! Bring the outdoors in.
Combine your indoor and outdoor living spaces with folding or pocket doors that stretch an entire wall. While some might say this is a modern trend, there’s no reason glass walls that open up to your outdoor space or show off breathtaking views will go out of style anytime soon.
Solar control glass gives an unobstructed view to the outside while blocking harmful UV rays and heat reflection. Don’t let your windows blur your floors and furniture. Modern windows let the sunlight in without damaging your furniture.
Imagine being able to enjoy the scenery outside your home without worrying about having to draw the curtains to keep out the heat and harmful rays. It can happen with current technology!
Natural light in the home adds to the beauty inside and invites the eye to look outside. It also increases the general atmosphere in the home and saves electricity for lighting. But with light, uncomfortable heat and furniture damage can result. Consult, depending on the placement of your windows, certainly with one of ours Orange County window and door experts about how to maximize light while minimizing heat or cold transfer. Even if there is furniture that will regularly be in the sun, you want to choose a glass that blocks UV rays as much as possible.
Orange County likes thin window frames
The modern trend today is thin frames and more glass. Who wants to look at a window frame when the view outside is so beautiful? Narrow window frames not only provide more views, but the minimalist look also gives your home a modern touch and adds elegance and beauty.
Thin window frames are generally made of aluminum or fiberglass and can be powder coated in any color to perfectly match the exterior of your home.
An added bonus of fiberglass window frames is that they never warp, rot or need to be repainted like wood window frames.

This home improvement project can expand your square footage
In addition to letting in beautiful natural light, the more windows you have, the larger your open floor plan will appear, making it seem like you have extra square footage. Open up your dining space by adding an outdoor kitchen, or bring the outdoors in with potted plants on the patio and inside the door. It’s an attractive and welcoming way to give more space without increasing the square footage of your home.
Moreover, it is simply beautiful and your guests will be impressed.
Double Hung Windows are winners in Orange County
One trend we are seeing in Orange County is the addition of double hung windows. Bi-panel windows are perfect for homes with young children or pets, as the window sashes open from above, making it virtually impossible for anything or anyone to fall out.
Plus, you can clean the outside of your double-hung windows from the comfort of your home. No more ladders or insecure window cleaning.
Technology makes Windows work smarter
Technology has made the window replacement process much more fun and effective because you’re not just filling space; you increase the security, appearance and functionality of your home.
Some of the window features you may not have even thought of are:
– Tinted or privacy glass
-Low Emissivity (Low-E) glass
-Argon or Krypton gas fillings
– Foam window insulation
Your window specialist can help you choose the windows that best suit your home, climate and family.
When it comes to window replacement in Orange County, there are many factors to consider. But with the help of a window specialist, you can rest assured that your window project will be beautiful, functional and will add value to your home.
What about doors for my home in Orange County?
We may talk a lot about windows in Southern California, but we love doors just as much! We have placed patio doors, garden doors, sliding doors and sliding doors. Unfortunately, we do not (yet!) install pet doors.
Stylish patio doors can really open up a room and bring the outdoors in. If you have a smaller home, patio doors can make a room appear larger. Consider glass doors for an office or bedroom to create the illusion of more space. Sliding glass doors are perfect for patios and decking and can really make your outdoor space an extension of your home.

How do you know if you need new windows in your Orange County home?
One way to tell if your windows need replacing is to check the window sill. If the window sill is rotten, that is a good indication that the window frame has also been affected and needs to be replaced.
Another way to tell if you need new windows is to open and close them. If they are difficult to open or close, or if they do not stay open, it is a sign that the window is malfunctioning and needs to be replaced.
Your home’s energy efficiency can also indicate whether it’s time to explore new window installation. Energy-efficient windows make it easier to keep your home at a comfortable temperature, which can save you money on your energy bill.
Of course, aesthetics can also play a role! Maybe it’s just time to upgrade the overall look or function of a room. For example, swapping single-hung for double-hung can make a huge difference.
Find a good replacement window contractor
Working with a window or door company you can trust is more important than price. You want local window installers who can do an excellent job, of course you should also choose one of your neighbors in Orange County who can provide a free estimate in addition to great service.
