Replacement Window Trend – Black Is Back

If you thought that black windows were only for industrial or modern home styles, think again. While black steel-framed windows first became popular in factories around the turn of the 20th century, they slowly worked their way into residential spaces. When aluminum windows stole the show, they waned in popularity, but as trends tend to ebb and flow, the industrial look has spilled over into mainstream architecture and black is back.

Black Window Frames Are Timeless

Whether your home is industrial, modern farmhouse, contemporary, or even Victorian, black windows work well. That’s because while black can be seen as a bold color, it is also a neutral color in that it does not compete with other colors. It blends conservatively with darker colors and contrasts tastefully when paired with lighter colors adding an air of class to both. It even complements textures like brick, stone, and stucco. Black can lend an up-to-date look without stealing the show and overpowering the architecture. Like the classic black tuxedo, it never really goes out of style. Add to that the fluidity of today’s architectural designs, allowing the unconventional mixing of bits and pieces of various architectural styles, and black windows can work on almost every style of home.

Black Window Frames Are Versatile

Black window frames will add class to any room, but depending on the look you want, black window frames can impact your space in different ways. Large black windows with thick, heavy frames are more dramatic and can become the main focus. You don’t even need window treatments with these windows. They are meant to be front and center. But smaller, thinner frames can create a lighter, airier, more elegant feel. Add some simple window treatments for a chic and modern flair. It all depends on your preference. Black frames tend to blend in better as well. They often look like a shadow line and completely disappear from view on the outside of a home. When you are inside the home looking out the window, the black frame disappears allowing you to only see the clear window.

3 Tips about Replacement Windows with Black Frames

Black window frames differ from white window frames in more than just color preference. There are three issues window buyers should be aware of when it comes to black replacement windows and they all have to do with the sun.

First, because black window frames absorb a lot of sunlight, they heat up much quicker than window frames of lighter colors. The black frames absorb a lot of heat while the glass absorbs much less. This difference in heat between the outside frame and glass creates contrast between the two surfaces and can lead to thermal performance losses and even cracking. With vinyl frames, this drastic contrast in temperature can cause structural integrity issues.

Second, with metal frames, there’s another problem to be aware of. Because metal is a great conductor of heat, black metal window frames can become very hot to the touch. Black steel and aluminum frames get so hot they can cause burns to the skin.

Third, black windows are prone to fading after years in the sunlight.

Andersen Windows Don’t Have These Performance Issues

At All-Weather, we carry Andersen windows which means you can choose black replacement windows with no worries. Andersen windows are made from a special material called Fibrex. Fibrex, which is exclusive to Andersen windows, is made up of reclaimed wood fiber and thermoplastic polymer that is fused together. It is two times stronger than vinyl, and performs better when exposed to extreme temperatures (up to 150 degrees Fahrenheit). You don’t have to worry about fading either. Andersen’s unique fabrication process blends the color with the Fibrex® material during production for color through and through, delivering long-lasting beauty. Windows from the E-Series, A-Series and 100 Series product lines come with fade warranties. These windows are virtually maintenance-free and do not require repainting. In summary, Fibrex windows from Andersen won’t fade, flake, blister or peel and also resist rotting, decay, and fungus.

Do Black Replacement Windows Cost More Than White?

Normally, you’ll find that black windows cost anywhere from 10-25% more than white windows of equal quality. That’s because black windows are very sensitive to heat, so they may need special glazing and special vinyl which can increase the price. But with Andersen windows, black is a standard color option available within the A-Series, E-Series, 400 Series, and 100 Series lines. In most cases, ordering black frames will not increase the price of your windows. However, there is an additional cost to selecting black within the 100 Series line due to the technology required.

Will Black Windows Go Out of Style?

About 90% of windows are either black or white. Both are classic options that work well with many different building styles. Because many new projects are using black windows as a standard, they can be seen as trendy. But, black windows are expected to become even more popular as time goes on. Black windows have established themselves as the premium option when it comes to newer construction. Thus, they have become dominant in an industry that is expected to grow. Although white windows remain popular, they are more commonly used in the replacement window industry on homes that were originally designed to look good with white windows. In general, white windows are more simple, reliable, and cheaper. On the other hand, black windows have an arguably more appealing look and provide value to the house. Upgrading from white windows to black replacement windows can be a great way to increase curb appeal. In the end, it’s all up to the homeowner’s particular taste.

Do Your Homework on Manufacturers

The bottom line is, when it comes to purchasing windows with black frames, make sure you go with a brand you can trust. We carry Andersen windows because they put their products through the toughest tests so when you put them in your home, they’ll perform. Andersen windows are instrumental in helping us keep our commitment to quality. A commitment that has helped us build a reputation for excellence with over 40,000 customers for over 30 years.

We Match Interior Trim on Replacement Windows

There are a lot of choices when it comes to replacement windows in Kansas City. It’s really hard for a consumer to know the difference between replacement window companies. In the end, we find that it’s the little things that mean the most to our customers. That’s why we encourage you to do your homework, ask around, read reviews, ask questions and try to educate yourself as much as possible. Ask lots of questions because there’s a lot to consider. One of the small, but critical differences is that when you get your windows replaced by All-Weather, we match your interior trim style. Ask others if their replacement windows match their interior trim styles and I’ll bet the answer is no.

Lots of Window Trim Styles Exist

First, let’s make sure we’re all on the same page. What is window trim? Window trim, also called casing, is the decorative molding or framing around a window that is used to cover the space between the window frame and the wall. Crown molding and baseboards function in the same way bridging gaps between ceilings and walls or floors and walls.

There are dozens of trim styles out there. Window trim is an important part of your replacement windows. Just like a picture frame, it highlights the view, creates a visual statement, and it gives a finished look to your room.

Window Trim Finishes the Look

Trim styles make a big difference in the overall feel of your home. Simple modern baseboards with flat surfaces create a consistent, sleek look throughout your home, while more traditional styles with rounded edges or detailed designs add a little flavor. It’s important for window casings to have the same thickness as door casings, baseboards, and chair rails, for a cohesive, finished look. While there is no rule that all trim should match, matching makes a lot of design sense and makes the design appear well thought out.

Matching Window Trim in Older Homes Is Challenging

Historic homes can be particularly challenging when it comes to matching window trim styles. Like anything that’s been around for a while, it’s harder to find the original parts. But when you choose All-Weather Window, Doors & Siding, we have connections and can usually locate old trim that matches perfectly. We go the extra mile and match interior trim on replacement windows to make sure your windows look great .

We Go Above and Beyond with Our Replacement Window Installation

Other window companies may give you a small selection of trim styles to choose from. We take care to match the existing trim style so the look is seamless. If you’re replacing your windows, you want to make sure that the finished product does not look like a replacement window. That’s just one example of the attention to detail you’ll get with All-Weather Window, Doors & Siding. Replacement windows are a big purchase, and a purchase that you will live with for many years, so it’s extremely important to know you are dealing with a reputable and trustworthy company. That’s exactly who All-Weather Window, Doors & Siding is. We go above and beyond the expected customer service to provide the best experience possible.

Since 1986, we have served the Kansas City metro area and now have a customer base of over 40,000 satisfied homeowners. We are proud of the local reputation of quality and professionalism we have built. We are proud that nearly one third of our business is from repeat customers.

Our Replacement Windows Match Interior Trim Colors

There are a lot of choices when it comes to replacement windows in Kansas City. It’s really hard for a consumer to know the difference between replacement window companies. We encourage you to do your homework, ask around, read reviews, ask questions and try to educate yourself as much as possible. Ask lots of questions because there’s a lot to consider. One of the small, but critical differences is that when we replace your windows, we match your interior trim stain or paint color. Ask others if their windows match interior trim colors and I’ll bet the answer is no.

Replacement Windows Don’t Always Match Interior Trim Colors

Every window has a frame that surrounds it to finish the look on the inside of your home. Some are painted while others are stained wood. With original windows, all of the interior windows match  interior trim creating a seamless look.  When you get new replacement windows, most window companies offer only three or four colors to paint or stain your windows. Unfortunately, these colors rarely match the color of the interior trim. The result is windows that look like they’ve been replaced rather than windows that look like they belong.

We Custom Match Your Window Paint/Stain Color

That’s just not good enough for All-Weather Window standards. We want your new windows to look amazing. Instead of offering a few colors that will have to be “close enough”, we take a sample of your existing trim and match the color exactly for a professional and seamless look. Not only do our windows match interior trim colors,  we even use color matched wood putty so your windows and trim look flawless! Sure, it’s extra work, but we know it’s important to you. Discover other ways we go the extra mile when it comes to replacement windows.

Home Improvements Ranked by ROI and the Joy They Provide

The 2022 Remodeling Impact Report from the National Association of REALTORS® Research Group gives us some interesting information about home improvements. Not only does this report show us the cost of certain home improvements, it also provides a Joy Score which reflects how excited homeowners were about their completed project. Exterior projects with the highest Joy Scores were for painting exterior siding, new vinyl or wood windows, and new steel or fiberglass doors. 

How Much of the Cost Will You Recover at Resale?

REALTORS® provided an estimate of the likely dollar value each project would add to the house at resale. In comparing that dollar value to the estimated cost of each project provided by NARI members, a Recovered Project Cost percentage was calculated. For exterior projects, the highest percentage cost recovered was from new roofing and new garage door both at 100%. Fiber cement siding recovered 86% of the cost spent and vinyl siding recovered 82%. When it came to windows, vinyl windows recovered 67% of the cost spent with wood windows close behind at 63%. Steel front doors ranked at 63% and fiberglass front doors 60%.

Home Improvement Brings Joy to Homeowners

The fun scores were the joy scores. Across the board, windows, doors and siding all brought a lot of joy to the homeowners who installed them. While the interior home improvement projects ranked a bit higher than the exterior projects, it’s nice to see how much joy homeowners get from both.

7 Ways to Save on Replacement Windows

At All-Weather Window, Doors & Siding, we want to save our customers money in any way we can. Of course, we never sacrifice quality for savings, but we know some insider secrets to help you keep your window project within your budget. But before we get to that, we want to share the most important tip of all. Find a good window company before you do anything else. Once your windows are installed, if you’re not happy, you can’t take them back and start over. Reputation matters, check references, read reviews, and visit their showroom. Make sure they stand behind their work with warranties. Two guys with a truck may be the cheapest price, but it will cost you in the long run, and where will they be when your windows fail? You want to pick a company that is going to be there ten years from now to honor the warranty that they sold you. Even if you don’t choose us, make sure you choose someone reputable and trustworthy.

So now to the meat of it. How do you save money without compromising quality? Here are some insider tips from the crew at All-Weather Window, Doors and Siding.

1. Choose Standard Colors 

One of the simplest ways to save money on replacement windows is to stick with the standard colors offered.  Most window companies sell frames that are a basic color like white, almond,or taupe. These colors go with everything and every style of home. Because they can mass produce these frames, they are more affordable. Any color that is out of the ordinary, will take more time and therefore, cost more.

2. Change the Type of Window 

There are two ways that changing the type of window can save you money. The first tip is easy, but just not often thought of as an option. Change multiple windows into a large picture window. Let’s say you have multiple windows in your kitchen. You can replace them with one large window and actually save money. Many homeowners are pleasantly surprised to discover this option. They end up with more light, and a beautiful, uninterrupted view. If it is a window that you really want to be able to open, you can install horizontal sliding panels instead of typical double-hung windows. The sliding panels also work if you need egress windows say, in a bedroom. The look is more elegant, but the price is actually lower. Just make sure you have enough windows that open in each room (for ventilation and egress purposes) and then change the rest into beautiful picture windows for lovely views and plenty of daylight!

The second way you can save money by changing window types is by eliminating the need to have tempered glass. Tempered glass is more expensive than regular (annealed) glass and building codes require it to be used if certain conditions exist. When a window is within two feet of a door, or if it is within 18 inches of the floor and more than nine square feet in area, it must be tempered glass. Wet areas such as bathrooms require tempering if the bottom edge is less than 60 inches from the floor. Knowing this, if you had a large picture window within 24 inches of a door, which would need to be tempered, you could reconfigure it by dividing it into smaller units so it wouldn’t have to be tempered. A good installer will explain your options.

3. Change the Grid Options

Grids are the horizontal and vertical lines that separate a window pane. Grids are labor intensive to create, so they increase the cost of the window. Grids, or grilles as they are sometimes called, are strictly for looks, so you can reduce them or completely remove them without compromising any window quality or function. Many homeowners choose to keep the grids only on the windows on the front of the house. More modern style homes can usually eliminate them altogether. You can also choose windows with fewer grids. You could choose windows with 6-section grids instead of 9-section grids.

There are also two different types of grids – grids that are attached to the surface of the glass making it look more realistic like there are truly separate pieces of glass being held in a frame. These are referred to as Simulated Divided Lite or SDLs. The other option is grids between the two panes of glass. These are referred to as GBGs or Grids Between Glass. If you touch the window, you cannot feel the grills. SDLs are more expensive than GBG because they require more materials and more labor. 

4. Use Standard Sizes 

As with color, sizes fall into standard categories as well. Window manufacturers mass-produce the most common sizes knowing that they will eventually be needed. Custom sizes require more labor and are more expensive. Typically, when a home is built there are some pretty standard sizes that get used. If you stick with those, you will save money. 

5. Replace All of Your Windows at the Same Time

Buy more windows. It may sound counterintuitive, but if you are planning on replacing all of the windows in your home, it’s more economical to do it all at once than in several smaller projects. There are economies of scale involved. First of all, windows are cheaper in larger quantities and the company only has to process and coordinate the job once. And don’t forget that most manufacturers will have annual price increases due to material prices rising. It may be more economical to do it all at once and pay it off over time if you can get a decent interest rate on a loan. One other thing to consider is your time used to coordinate two or three projects plus the hassle of living in a home during several renovations.

6. Avoid Unnecessary Add-Ons

Be careful to buy only what you truly need in a window, especially if staying within budget is paramount. Don’t let anyone talk you into upgrading the hardware,  adding special film to prevent breaking, or upgrading to triple pane windows if double pane will do the job for your climate. 

7. Pay with Cash or Check

When paying with a credit card, most companies will have to charge you the extra 3% service fee that the credit card companies charge them. With window projects costing thousands of dollars, it doesn’t make sense. Paying with cash or check will be less expensive. Many window companies also offer financing to help you spread the cost out over time.

The last word of advice is to make sure your window installers are experienced. If you go with a reputable company that stands behind their windows and installation with a warranty, you should be assured a smooth, seamless, and safe experience. Quality windows installed poorly are simply poor windows, and they will not perform to your standards.

And they provide that product. The problem is, people think RBA is the only place to purchase Andersen windows in KC and that’s just not the case. 

The Better Choice for Andersen Window Installation

Take All-Weather, for instance. We are a very unique dealer in that we specialize in installing the complete product portfolio from Andersen, along with siding and doors, exclusively to homeowners.

Unfortunately for the consumer, many times, they will get a bid on Andersen windows from RBA and think that they are the only Andersen dealer in town. They never realize that they have another, better choice.

When making a larger purchase like windows or siding, it’s tempting to think that cost should be your main determining factor. Let’s face it, these are larger purchases than the ones you make in a normal year and can be challenging to fit into your budget. We wanted to share the story of an Overland Park couple who have purchased replacement windows twice for their home. They were willing to share what they learned.

“Our first window purchase was back in 2010. Our house was only about ten years old, but we noticed that the builder-grade windows were drafty. My computer sat in my bedroom right next to our bay window and I could feel the cold air sneaking in while I worked. My mouse hand was always freezing! Besides being uncomfortable, I knew we were losing a lot of energy as well. We decided to replace all of our double-hung windows on the first floor. 

I checked with three companies in town and decided to go with the best price. The salesman was convincing and the product was good. I figured, “Why pay those overinflated prices?” They installed eight windows total. There was a little trouble with the double window in the dining room when they went to install it. Apparently, they had ordered the wrong size. The salesman assured me they would be able to make it work and all was fine. Fast forward about a year and I noticed that the wood frame around that window was swelling and there were signs of water leaking on my carpet as well. My husband examined the window and discovered that they had forgotten to caulk it along the very top and that’s where the water was coming in. Luckily, the damage was minor and my husband was able to fix it. 

So in 2019, when we noticed that the large window wall in the great room (original windows) was showing signs of wood rot, it was time to go window shopping again. I called three companies and this time, I based my decision on how long they had been in business, what kind of reputation they had and, I‘m not going to lie, price still factored in. I chose All-Weather Windows, Doors & Siding this time. 

The thing I liked about All-Weather was that they talked about the different options I had while the other two companies just gave me a price and never mentioned how the windows would look and never gave me any other options. This window wall is the main focus of our home when you walk in the front door. I wanted it to look good! All-Weather suggested the windows that would give me the most glass per pane (replacement windows are usually a bit smaller than the original windows because they have to fit inside the existing framework of the original window.) My salesman explained that they were not the cheapest option, but would look the best. 

From my research, I knew All-Weather was also an experienced Andersen installer, so I had confidence that they knew what they were doing. Well, here we are, six years later and I’m thrilled with my windows! The window wall looks fantastic and the five double-hung windows we had replaced upstairs at the same time are doing great too. No leaks…no problems. So my advice is to shop around and don’t just base your decision on the price. Your windows will be in your home for decades. It’s worth the time and effort to find and hire a professional who has been in the industry for a long time. 

I will add that All-Weather was not the cheapest or the highest price. Their bid was right in line with the other two window manufacturers we talked to. But the All-Weather people seemed to take the look of the windows into consideration and even let me come to the showroom to touch and feel the different options. They provided better customer service, and after six years of use, I can confidently say quality, professional installation too.”
