Bay and Bow Windows: Adding Character and Space to Your Home

a living room filled with furniture and a large windowReplacing windows is one of the most common renovation projects homeowners choose. Not only can new windows enhance the aesthetics of the home, but they can also provide energy savings, health benefits, and more. There are two types of windows that homeowners may not consider right away that we want to discuss: bay windows and bow windows. Here are some of the characteristics of each so you can decide whether they would be good fits for your home.

What Makes Bay Windows Unique?

Bay windows have three total sides and protrude from the home. They can be customized to fit most existing windows and can stretch from the ceiling to the floor if desired. The projection outward can extend as little as 12 inches or several feet depending on your preferences. What makes bay windows desirable is they can make any room feel much larger. Casement or double-hung windows are the most popular for bay windows so they can operate similarly to standard windows homeowners are used to.

Should You Consider Adding Bow Windows to Your Home?

Bow windows typically have at least four windows that join together to create what looks like an arch. The gradual curves provide unmatched elegance and the minimum width is usually around 80 inches. Homeowners don’t have as many customization options with bow windows compared to bay windows. However, bow windows allow more light to enter the home, so they are desired by homeowners who want to improve interior natural lighting.

Always Rely On Experienced Professionals for Your Window Replacement

Whether you’re interested in bay windows, bow windows, or any other type of window, working with an experienced contractor is essential. Undergoing window replacement is not a simple DIY project, and if windows are not installed correctly, you could be dealing with issues for years to come. Since both bay and bow windows protrude outward, extra special care must be given to ensure they are insulated and properly installed per local building codes.

Our window replacement experts at Fiderio & Sons will ensure you can enjoy your new windows without any headaches. Bay and bow windows are unique additions to any home, and we can discuss the various options available to you. Both options can add character and space to your home, and your home value could enjoy a boost as well. When you’re ready to discuss your window replacement options, contact us to schedule a consultation and we would love to hear what you have in mind.
