How to Match Your Window Trim With Your Interior

By

Given how windows are one of your home’s most visible design elements, it pays to keep them looking good all year round. One effective way to do this is by dressing them up with a trim, or window casing. These are a decorative element that creates a frame around your window opening, helping cover the gap between the jamb and adjacent wall. But how do you make sure your window trim can match your home’s interior? Renewal by Andersen® of Denver, the leading source of top-tier windows and patio doors in the area, shares some handy tips.
Be consistent with your window trim. Make sure your window trims conform with the home’s architectural style. High-profile window casings, for example, come with a more elaborate design that’s perfect in homes with traditional architecture. You can use them to accentuate the windows in your formal living room. If you own a contemporary home, you might want to get modern casings, which come with a sleek, minimalistic appearance.

Maintain a neater look by tying your window trim with other decorative elements. For instance, you can use the same type of window trim for your patio doors. Again, this will depend on your home’s existing style. For contemporary homes with sliding glass doors, keep it simple with a low-profile casing. A complete casing, on the other hand, works best with classic hinged doors inside a traditional home.

Keep your window trim to scale. This means avoiding the use of larger window casings in smaller rooms. A simple bath space, laundry room, or guest bedroom will benefit more from a thinner window trim. For rooms with higher ceilings, you’re free to use bigger, more detailed casings. For exact measurements, however, you’ll need to turn to a window expert to ensure the overall look is perfectly cohesive.

We custom-build our replacement windows based on your design specifications, including your choice of hardware finish, exterior-interior color, style and grille pattern.

3 Patio Door and Window Combinations You Should Consider

By

Your windows and patio doors are your home’s most visible design elements. They help increase curb appeal in their own ways–but what if you actually combine them to make an interesting focal point in your home? You’re probably excited with the design possibilities, so let Renewal by Andersen® of Denver, your reliable door and window company, help you get started with these handy tips:
Go contemporary with sliding glass patio doors and picture windows. The combination is just perfect. Both sliding patio doors and picture windows offer narrow frames and expensive glass area, giving your home a sleek, contemporary look. Use large, undivided picture windows to flank both sides of your sliding glass patio doors. This allows for a more expansive view of the outdoors, while increasing your home’s access to natural light.

Go classic with hinged French patio doors and double-hung windows. Grace and timeless beauty go hand in hand in this combo. Both French doors and double-hung windows offer a simple and elegant design, which adds to the classic look of traditional home styles, such as Colonial, Craftsman and Farmhouse. How about trying this neat tip? Install a cozy seating area inside your home, next to the French patio doors and right underneath the double-hungs. This allows you to enjoy outdoor living without actually stepping onto your back garden. It’s especially handy during cold or rainy weather.

Go for the best effect with hinged French doors and specialty windows. Do you see that negative wall space above your hinged French patio doors? Use it to its best effect by adding a lovely specialty window. Renewal by Andersen® of Denver can help you with this. Aside from sliding and hinged French patio doors, plus double-hung and picture windows, we offer a wide selection of specialty windows. They come in different shapes and sizes, from circle top and chord, to triangle and octagon. With this combo, you can add a lovely and enduring focal point to your space.

Create the best combos using the high-quality patio doors and replacement windows offered by Renewal by Andersen® of Denver. And given how our choices are available in a range of colors, styles, hardware finishes, and grille patterns, you’ll always have plenty of opportunities for customization. We proudly serve homeowners in Denver and Colorado Springs, CO, and the nearby cities. Call us today at (303) 823-4312 or fill out this form to schedule your free window consultation.

By

Just how long your windows will last depends on the material they’re made. If you want your windows to provide the superior and long-term performance you expect, you should choose a composite window material. You’ll find the most popular of them at Renewal by Andersen® of Denver, one of the top window companies in the area. Our exclusive Fibrex®? material exemplifies durability and lasting service, but how does it fare against its counterparts? We’ll find out about it today.
What Exactly is Fibrex?
Fibrex is a revolutionary composite material exclusive to Renewal by Andersen. It combines the solidity and superior insulating properties of wood with the maintenance-free value of vinyl. What’s more, 40% of the raw material by weight used to make Fibrex is clean, reclaimed wood fiber making it an eco-friendly choice. Today, more and more homeowners are choosing Fibrex replacement windows to improve their home’s curb appeal, comfort and energy efficiency, and keep the harsh elements at bay.
How Long Does Fibrex Last?
Fibrex is proven two times stronger than vinyl. Replacement windows made of this composite don’t chip, crack, or corrode, and will not expand or contract when exposed to extreme changes in weather and temperature. To test their longevity, Renewal by Andersen has conducted a long-term durability study. We removed ten original windows from the home of one of our clients after 20 years of use–and the results were exceptional.
We did some testing on-site and performed a more extensive test in our lab. After 20 years of exposure to extreme weather conditions, we found out our Fibrex windows are just as easy to operate as the day they were installed. They remain incredibly strong, not even displaying signs of chipping, peeling or cracking. But that’s not the only thing that makes our Fibrex windows long-lasting. Our professional crew has ensured their high-quality installation, which plays a big role in how your windows perform.
Other Benefits of Fibrex
Our Fibrex windows keep durable, airtight seals to prevent outside air from leaking into your home, while stopping heating and cooling energy from leaking out. When paired with our advanced High-Performance™ Low-E4®, SmartSun™ glass, they’ll ensure that your home remains thermally comfortable all year round, minus the high energy costs. What’s more, the durability of Fibrex allows us to create windows with slimmer frames and more expansive glass, helping maximize your home’s viewing area and access to natural light.

4 Sliding Patio Door Maintenance Tips You Should Know

By

As with most exterior components that are exposed to the elements and see frequent use, sliding patio doors may start developing operational issues. Fortunately, preventing these problems and ensuring continued performance isn’t as daunting as you might think. Renewal by Andersen® of Denver, your premier expert in door and window replacement, shares some handy maintenance tips.
Clear accumulated grime from the roller tracks. Sliding patio doors are prone to jamming or sticking because of dirt buildup. You can fix this with a thorough cleaning. Run a damp cloth along the upper and lower tracks and rollers to remove the grime. You can also use a toothbrush to scrub off more persistent dirt. You might also find small stones and other loose debris in the tracks that can hinder the doors’ performance. Use a vacuum to remove them.

Lubricate the tracks regularly. To prevent rust in your sliding patio doors, make sure to apply lubricant to the tracks routinely. But you’ll want to check the rollers first. If there are frequent bumps as you operate the sliding door, perhaps one or two of the lower roller wheels are damaged. You should consider consulting an expert in door and window replacement like Renewal by Andersen® of Denver for the appropriate solution.

Handle the sliding glass patio doors carefully. You don’t want to push your door unit too hard because the impact can seriously damage the glass area or the tracks. It also pays to clean their glass area at least once a week to prevent hard-to-remove stains.

Check the locking system and hardware. Any signs of damage or operational difficulties in your doors’ locks and hardware will need prompt attention. This way, your door can continue its good performance, while maintaining your home’s safety and security.

If your current sliding patio doors have sustained damage and display issues more serious than the occasional jamming, turn to Renewal by Andersen® of Denver for a comprehensive checkup. It might be time for a new door–and we can help you with this. We are not just your go-to company for excellent replacement windows, we also offer durable and smooth-operating sliding patio doors. For effortless performance, they use advanced dual ball-bearing rollers with self-contained leveling adjusters exclusive to Andersen®. Plus, they come with a reach-out lock system for improved security and weather tightness.

3 Ways to Prevent Mold Growth on Windowsills

By

Windows develop problems over time, whether from weather or just plain old aging. One of their most common issues, however, is mold growth. When left unattended, mold formation can lead to structural window damage, while resulting in a number of potential health issues. Fortunately, preventing this is much easier than you might think. Renewal by Andersen® of Denver, your premier door and window company, shares some useful preventive tips.
Ensure smoother airflow in your home. Mold growth usually occurs because of too much humidity inside your home. This allows for excessive moisture buildup on the sills. You can avoid all this by making sure rooms that generate moisture, such as kitchens, bath spaces and laundry rooms, are properly ventilated. You should also make sure that all doors and windows are closed when using the air conditioner to avoid the combination of warm and cool air, which can result in moisture buildup.

Insulate your home properly. Check your windows for broken seals and small gaps, where outside air can leak in. We’ve already mentioned that interaction between cold and warm air can lead to excessive moisture. Without proper window insulation, it’s so easy for mold to grow on the sills. What’s more, it can result in higher energy costs. Prevent this by sealing these gaps, and if that doesn’t work, it might be time to get replacement windows.

Remove condensation on windows. If you spot condensation forming on or around your windows, wipe it off thoroughly. Do this using a clean, dry cloth or sponge. In fact, you should make window cleaning a habit to prevent mold growth and keep your units looking good.

What to Do About Mold Growth on Windows
This can be a bit tricky because mold usually forms along hard-to-see areas, such as the joint between the window frame and the bottom edge of the window glass. Mold can even blend in because of the color of your windows. For this reason, it pays to turn to a window expert like Renewal by Andersen® of Denver for a thorough inspection. We are trained and experienced for this task, ensuring that even the slightest hint of mold growth isn’t missed. If we do find it forming on your windowsills, we’ll provide you with a more permanent solution.
We offer a range of high-quality replacement windows, made of our exclusive Fibrex® framing material, which offers the strength and insulating value of wood, plus vinyl’s maintenance-free performance. Our windows also come with High-Performance™ Low-E4® SmartSun™ glass. They’ll prevent air leakage and energy loss when closed, and when open, allow for superior ventilation. With our options, mold growth on windows will no longer be a problem.
