Kitchen Window Concepts

Kitchens are versatile. Whether it’s a fun family gathering or a quiet dinner-for-one, kitchens are often the centerpiece for your Northern Virginia home. No matter what you’re in the kitchen for, one of the most common requests among homeowners is that there be windows in the kitchen. So if you’ve recently moved in to an older home in the Northern Virginia area that needs replacement windows, the experts at Pella Windows and Doors are here to help.

It is crucial that kitchen windows are reliable, efficient and most importantly, gorgeous. It’s no mystery that the pros at Pella Windows and Doors know windows. No matter what vision you have for your kitchen, we have the know-how when it comes to replacement windows so that your idea can be real.

Efficiency: Kitchens are a prime area for letting natural light in through your windows. For people who love to have breakfast with a view, casement or bay windows are good options since they are more open and can tend to be bigger. Pella Windows and Doors also carries ENERGY STAR certified window and door options that can help protect your home from the harsh summer heat and cool winter drafts that we tend to have in Northern Virginia.

Durability: It’s important to keep in mind that kitchens have a tendency to be accident-prone and messy spaces. When it comes to dependability and maintenance, there are various different surfaces and finishes to choose from that adhere to your cleaning style. Unless you are the best cook in Northern Virginia, food splatters around when you are putting together dinner – it happens to the best of us. If your windows are near a stove or sink, there is a bigger opening that grease or other residue could soak in and stain them. Over time, that could result in the need for replacement windows if the appropriate cleaning and maintenance isn’t done. Vinyl windows, fiberglass windows, and wood windows have their bonuses, so make sure you’re considering all of your choices when it’s time for replacements.

Decoration: Because it is one of the most utilized rooms in a home, it’s crucial to make it an aesthetically appealing place. Windows are a great canvas for decorations to fit your style, from flickering lights to unique curtains. Get inspiration for decorating or DIY tips through Pinterest, Houzz or even tuning in to HGTV - the opportunities are endless. Some sites even allow you to shop straight from the picture you like, making your renovation process extremely efficient.
