Replacement Windows & Doors in South Fallsburg, NY, and Surrounding Areas

You may never have stopped to consider it, but your home’s windows and doors play a crucial role in your family’s overall comfort. From allowing bright, cheerful light to flood into your rooms, to letting in gentle breezes and blocking winter’s chill, your windows contribute greatly to your comfort and your home’s overall aesthetic. Your door’s impact your home’s airtightness, safety, and curb appeal. At Gizinski Construction, in South Fallsburg, NY, we only work with the industry’s most trusted brands because we know how important windows and doors are.

Factors to Consider When Choosing Replacement Windows

Buying new windows for your home can be both exciting and overwhelming. We can help you narrow your search, but the first step is to identify the style that best matches your home’s architecture. From there, as you research and learn more about specific windows, the following features are good points to account for when making your selection:

Budget: New windows really span the price spectrum, making it easy to get caught up in a price point you might not have otherwise chosen. It’s best to determine your budget ahead of shopping, then buy the best windows you can in that price range.

Material: Your home’s current window frame material will play a role here and will impact whether you need new windows or replacement windows. At Gizinski Construction, we can assess your current windows and help you determine the best path. Vinyl and fiberglass are common materials for window replacements.

Style: It’s helpful to identify the styles and shapes of windows that are appealing to you before meeting with your contractor for a consultation.

Warranty: This varies by manufacturer, but in general, you want to look for windows with warranties that last as long as the expected lifespan of the windows.

Cleaning & Maintenance: Windows that offer low maintenance and easy care are popular options for today’s busy lifestyles.

Energy Efficiency: Since the energy efficiency of your windows will directly impact your family’s comfort and energy bills, you’ll want to aim for buying the most energy efficient models you can afford. 

Factors to Consider When Shopping for New Doors

Shopping for new doors involves many of the same features as shopping for new windows.

Material: Like windows, doors are primarily available in wood, fiberglass, or steel. 


Hanging Design: Most doors will have an exposed three-hinge system, hidden hinge system, or a vertical pivot that leaves a much wider opening. 


Insulation & Energy Efficiency: As with windows, you’ll want to choose the highest insulation and energy efficient models within your budget.

Security: A good guideline is to look for a door with a deadbolt that’s at least one inch in length with a reinforced metal strike plate.


Swing: Most doors are designed to swing inward, but custom models are usually available if your home’s design calls for a door that swings outwardly.



Color: Probably one of the more fun aspects of door shopping—do you like a natural wood look, a bold, painted color, or a high-gloss sheen?
