A Home Renovation That Pays For Itself
When Melbourne homeowners plan renovations to add value to their home they often look to kitchen or bathroom upgrades or extensions. Upgrading your windows from single-glazed to double-glazed is often not at top of mind but is a home renovation that can provide immediate lifestyle and cost saving benefits.
Retofit double glazing improves your home in ways that are appreciated and sought after by home buyers. Upgrading to double glazed windows lowers energy bills, creates a quieter and more thermally comfortable home and reduces condensation on windows during Melbourne's colder months.
Why Double Glazing Stands Out as a Home Renovation
Not all home renovations appeal equally to prospective buyers with personal style and taste playing a significant role in how they are valued. Double glazing delivers quantifiable improvements to a home that appeal to a wide range of buyers:Â
1
Up to 75% reduction in heat loss
Meaning lower heating and cooling bills and a more even and comfortable in-home temperature
2
Up to 70% reduction in external noise
Making homes quieter in Melbourne's bustling urban suburbs
3
Reduction in condensation
Minimises condensation forming on windows during colder months, protecting original timber frames from long-term damage
4
Preservation of original window frames
Maintaining the character of period and heritage homes
Retrofit double glazing is particularly valuable for heritage and period homes in Melbourne. It allows homeowners to improve thermal and acoustic performance while retaining the original character and charm of the home, which is often a key selling point.
