For the experienced DIYer, installing a new window should be a comfortable weekend project.
Keep in mind they are heavy objects to haul and lift, so you’ll need to enlist a burly helper to assist.
And pay particular attention to correct waterproofing.
Will putting in new windows add value to your home? Contact the appraisers at www.socalappraisalserv.com for value questions.
Check with your local council first to see if you require approval for the window. If it’s going into an entirely new spot or is significantly larger than the one being replaced, chances are you’ll need to put in a development application (DA).
Getting started
There are many different windows to choose from: bifolds, sash windows, sliding windows, louvres, casement windows etc.
Browsing a few window supplier websites or showrooms will give you a good indication of the type of window best suited to your application.
