You might think that the winter season is an odd time to get a window replacement in Ontario, but it’s not as far-fetched an idea as it might appear to be. Yes, many people get their windows changed during the spring or summer. One of the reasons this is so popular is that spring and winter feature balmy weather. It can, therefore, seem strange to imagine windows being installed at a time when there’s snow, freezing ice and bone-chilling temperatures.

Are you worried about the cold weather getting inside when the installers are doing their job? This is kept to a minimum since installers will do one window at a time, and they’ll close the door of any room they’re working in. They’ll also spread tarps to protect your flooring and furniture. So, it’s not nearly as difficult to pull it off as you might think.

Here’s a look at some of the reasons why it makes sense to install windows in the winter.

Installation Date Flexibility

During the winter, fewer people get windows installed than during the spring or summer. That’s a fact. What this means is that it can be much easier to get a quick installation date after you buy replacement windows. During the summer, you may have to wait longer than you would like to get your windows put in. The reason for this is that there is greater demand for the installation slots, and this means that you’ll have to wait in line, so to speak. You simply won’t run into that problem if you opt for winter installation instead since fewer people will be in line.

Window Problems Easier to Identify in the Winter

More than any other time of year, it is easiest to figure out if there are problems with your windows in the winter. The frigid weather across the country means that it won’t be long before you find out if there are drafts or leaks that need to be addressed. Caulking or weather stripping might be enough to fix some problems, but a more permanent solution will be replacement windows. After you get them installed, you’ll notice a big difference right away. You’ll pay less in heating costs since the windows will provide proper insulation, and this will make for a more comfortable interior environment.

Deals and Promotions

Winter is the slow period for the replacement window industry. And what do replacement window companies do when they want to ramp up sales? That’s right — they offer deals and promotions to entice people to get their windows done. Everybody likes to save some money. So you can consider taking advantage of deals by getting window replacement in the winter.
