Take Care of Your Windows and Doors

The best way to prevent damage to your windows and doors is to properly maintain them and take care of them on a regular basis.

Here are some useful tips to help keep your investment in tip-top shape:

  • Clean all operating hardware, hinges and tracks on a regular basis and lubricate lightly with silicone spray or light oil
  • Do not clean glass or other finishes with abrasive materials or cleansers
  • Clean vinyl surfaces with mild soap and water
  • Inspect caulking regularly to ensure proper seal against brick or siding
  • Replace or repair any area that is cracked or damaged to prevent leaking

Is it time for new doors?

Quality doors are built to last, but even the best doors will eventually need to be replaced.

  • Do you feel a breeze when you walk by your front door?
  • Do you need to shove your door to get it open or closed?
  • Does your sliding door grind noisily along the tracks?

Then it may be time for you to get a brand new door – but what do you look for and how do you measure the value of a new door?
