Types of Replacement Windows
In addition to their practical functions of providing protection and allowing light and fresh air into your home, windows also play a crucial role in determining the overall aesthetic of your house, whether it leans towards traditional or modern. When you choose to replace your windows, you have the opportunity to tailor their appearance and functionality to your liking. At Becker’s, we offer a wide range of window styles and types to ensure that you can find the perfect fit for your individual needs and preferences. Below is an overview of the types of windows that we are able to install.
Single-Hung Windows
Single-hung or single-sash windows have two vertical sashes or panels. Typically, only the bottom sashes move up and down. Instead, you can get single-hung windows with upper sashes that slide up and down.
Double-Hung Windows
These windows, also known as double-sash windows, have two vertical sashes or panels that slide up and down. You can have the sashes tilt outward for easy cleaning and maintenance during your home window replacement.
Bay Windows
Bay windows protrude from the exterior of your home, creating a small nook inside. Although they appear to curve out, they are actually three flat windows set in angled frames.
Casement Windows
Casement windows provide a clearer view of the outside than traditional panel windows. Two solid glass panes are typically installed next to each other, and they can be opened upward or to the side.
Picture Windows
Picture windows are large, stationary windows that provide expansive views of the outside. They are typically installed in living rooms and other areas of the home where natural light and unobstructed views are desired.
Sliding Windows
Sliding windows are composed of two individual window panels that are positioned adjacent to each other and overlap slightly near the frame. They operate on a track so you can slide one panel over the other to open and close them.
Is it Time to Replace Your Windows?
There are several reasons why you might want to replace the windows in your home. If you notice a draft around your windows even when they are closed, this is a clear indication that it is time to replace them. A faulty seal, improper installation, frame damage, or other factors could all contribute to a draft. Upgrading to energy-efficient windows is frequently the most effective way to address this issue. Another reason to replace your windows is if condensation has formed between the glass layers, indicating that the seal has failed.
If your window frames are chipped, soft, or water-damaged, it’s time to think about replacing them. These issues can cause the windows to sag or become difficult to operate in many cases, and replacing them is frequently the only option. Furthermore, if you’re having trouble opening, closing, or locking your windows, it could be a sign that it’s time for a replacement. Finally, if your current windows let in a lot of outside noise, you can improve your living space by replacing them with double- or triple-pane windows insulated with Argon or Krypton gas. Becker’s can handle your window replacement project for whatever reason you’re considering it.
Common Reasons for Window Replacement
- Inability to open or close the window
- Difficulty keeping the window open
- Drafts coming in from around the edges
- Water seepage through the window
- Excessive noise from outside
- Balance malfunction
- Foggy or hazy glass
- Cracks in the windowpane

Home Window Replacement Materials
Wood and vinyl are the main materials used in the construction of windows, and each type has strong points. Becker’s is a licensed window replacement contractor in Delaware as well as parts of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland.
Vinyl Windows
Largely made of high-quality extruded polyvinyl chloride, vinyl windows never need to be sealed or painted. Contrary to popular belief, they’re available in a wide range of colors and finishes, including dark, rich shades that don’t fade. The fact that they’re cheaper than wood windows makes them a very attractive option for many home window replacement projects.
Wood Windows
Often built with Douglas fir or pine on the inside, wood window exteriors are covered with fiberglass, extruded aluminum or PVC. They’re an attractive option because you can keep the natural wood color if you want. In addition, wood windows are energy efficient because they don’t transfer warm or cool temperatures from outdoors.
