Why Consider Replacing Your Windows
Katelyn Lewis • April 17, 2024
Why would you consider replacing the windows for your home?
Here are the benefits you gain by replacing your windows:
- Energy Efficiency: Modern windows have good insulation properties which can help reduce energy consumption and save on heating and cooling costs.
- Durability: Windows are durable and require very little maintenance. They are resistant to corrosion, rot, and insect damage, which makes them an excellent long-term investment.
- Aesthetics: Windows come in a variety of colors and styles, which can help boost the look of a home's exterior.
- Noise Reduction: Today’s windows have good sound insulation properties which can help to reduce outside noise levels.
- Capital Improvement: Replacing your windows counts as a capital improvement toward increasing your home’s energy efficiency. Of course, consult with a tax professional or accountant to double-check your qualifications.
Overall, new windows offer a range of benefits and can be a great option for homeowners looking for energy efficiency, durability, and a curbside upgrade.

Unfortunately there are folks out there more concerned with a quick sale than with helping you with your home exteriors.
This Midlothian homeowner originally reached out to Retex in October 2023 for a roof repair for a leak in her kitchen as well as a roof replacement estimate. RETEX’s Andy Connor met with her, gave her both quotes, and we repaired her roof. She reached back out to Andy in March 2024, ready to move forward with RETEX on replacing her roof.
If your siding is 20+ years old, it’s worth getting a pro to assess it, even if it looks okay. Hidden issues can lurk beneath the surface.
Bryan Rizo serves on our Repair Team Alpha. Alongside Julio, Bryan repairs shingle roofs and installs small flat TPO roofs on homes across Richmond and Fredericksburg. He’s been with RETEX for three years, and we’re blessed to have him on board.
Montpelier homeowner Patrick Fadden reached out to RETEX in January for an estimate for replacing his home's roof and windows.
Always get detailed, apples-to-apples quotes so you know exactly what’s included (tear-off, underlayment, warranties, disposal, etc.) to avoid surprise costs or a roof replacement that’s not up to state code requirements.
This story began in April 2022, when a neighbor with many hats – a fellow Surreywoodian, a local pastor, and owner of an auto mechanic shop – reached out to RETEX’s Josh Lewis and Mark Erickson to assess his church’s roof and siding after experiencing hail damage.
We are thankful for the soldiers and their families who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country today and everyday. We admire your strength, courage, humility, and perseverance to fight on the frontlines.
