What Is Exterior Window Wrapping?
Exterior window wrapping is the process of placing a fiberglass, vinyl, or an aluminum-based cover over the exterior frame of wood windows on a home. This process is also referred to as “window cladding” and/or “window capping”.
The wrapping helps in the protection of the window from elemental conditions and aids in prolonging the lifespan of the window. Additionally, it is an easy and inexpensive way to modernize the appearance of the outside of the home for less!
What Are the Benefits of Exterior Window Wrapping?
Exterior window wrapping aids in boosting the appearance of your home. It will result in a more polished, modern appearance. In addition to this, you will experience the following benefits upon engaging in exterior window wrapping:
- Moisture Protection – Wood is a material that naturally attracts moisture. Once this invades the wood frame of a window, it has the potential to cause structural damage and detrimentally impact the foundation of the home. Exterior window wrapping is moisture-resistant and weather-resistant; therefore, by installing this wrapping on your windows, you will reap the reward of ensuring your windows and your home – in general – are protected from moisture.
- Insulative Properties – Older homes are prone to insulation issues. Window wrappings will provide an additional layer of protection on your home. As a result, the insulative properties of the home are optimized. As a result, your home will remain cooler in the summer months and warmer during the winter months.
- Increased Value – Exterior window wrapping provide an aesthetically-pleasing cover to the outside of the home. It is designed to cover those unsightly wood frames. Once in place, the wrappings instantly boost the curb appeal of the home. This – in turn – maximizes the total resale value of the structure. This means that you can instantly attract buyers to your home once you place it on the market.
