Is it Time to Replace Your Old Windows?
Window replacements are a big decision for any property. Not only are they a significant investment, but they also have the potential to completely change the look and feel of your home or office.
Keep an eye out for these signs of disrepair and call us the moment you notice them:
- Visible deterioration. Do you notice any cracks, chips, or other damage to your windows? Contact our team so we can assess the situation and provide the most cost-effective solution.
- Difficult operation. If you’re struggling to open and close your windows, it’s a good indication that the frame has become warped or the seal has broken.
- Constant drafts. Damaged or compromised windows can let in drafts, leading to higher energy bills.
- Water Damage. If your windows are foggy or condensation builds up frequently, this is a sign of a sealant issue. Eventually, the moisture can cause warping or rotting.
Our experts are more than happy to assess the condition of your windows and offer some insight. We always recommend getting a professional opinion before making any renovation decisions for your property.

What's the Difference Between a Bay Window and a Bow Window?
A bay window is a multi-panelled window that projects outward from the exterior wall of your home, creating a small alcove or “bay.” Meanwhile, a bow window is essentially several individual panes that join together to create a gentle curve.
If you’re unsure which option is right for you, don’t hesitate to contact us. Our team at Window Experts can help you choose the perfect window style for your property.
Popular Bay Window Replacement Styles
At Window Experts, we offer a wide range of bay window styles to match the look and feel of your property. Let’s go over a few of the most popular options:
Canted Bay Window
Canted bay windows are a great way to let in natural light while still providing privacy. Many consider canted bay windows to be the classic bay window style. These fixtures have angled sides and a flat front, giving a triangular shape when viewed from the outside.
Box Bay Window
Box bay windows are similar to canted bay windows but with 90-degree angles instead of angled sides. These fixtures can offer a more modern look to your home while still providing the same light and privacy benefits.
Oriel Window
Oriel windows are another type of box bay window. The main difference is that they don’t project outward from the wall, making them an excellent option if you’re looking to save space.
Circle Bay Window
As the name suggests, circle bay windows feature a gentle curve instead of sharp angles. These fixtures can provide an elegant look to any property and are perfect for letting in natural light.
The Many Advantages of a Bay Window Replacement
Bay window replacement offers several advantages over traditional windows, including:
- Increased light. Do you have some rooms on your property that could use more natural light? Bay windows are an excellent way to brighten up any space.
- Expanded views. Bay windows extend outward from the wall, giving you a wider field of view. This can be a great way to take in the scenery or keep an eye on your kids while they play outside.
- More indoor space. You can turn your bay window area into a cozy reading retreat or use it as a storage space if you want something more functional.
- Improved ventilation. Bay windows also offer better ventilation than traditional windows because you can open them from multiple angles. No matter the configuration, you’ll be able to enjoy a refreshing breeze.
- Improved curb appeal. Bay windows are a great way to enhance the look of your property, inside and out.
Choosing the Right Window Configurations
Since bay windows are actually a combination of multiple windows, you have the opportunity to customize the configuration to match your needs perfectly. The most popular options include:
- Single-hung windows. Single-hung windows are the simplest type of window and feature a top pane that is stationary, with a bottom pane that you can open and close.
- Double-hung windows. Double-hung windows are similar to single-hung windows but with two operable panes. This configuration gives you the ability to open both the top and bottom panes for improved ventilation.
- Casement windows. Casement windows have hinges on one side and open outward. They’re a great option if you’re looking for maximum ventilation.
