In Alberta, winter’s arrival often feels like flipping a switch. One day, we’re enjoying a crisp fall walk in Whitemud Park, and the next, we’re digging out the heavy-duty snow gear. With snow about to fall and temperatures dropping, many homeowners believe it’s time to pause on all home improvement plans. But what if we told you winter is actually an ideal season to tackle those door and window upgrades?
At Knight Doors & Windows, we believe every castle deserves to be cozy, functional and beautiful year-round.
While summer might seem like the obvious choice for home projects, there are some surprising perks to scheduling your upgrades in the heart of winter. Here’s why:
Advantage #1: No Bugs
Summer’s in Alberta come with some buzzing, unwanted visitors. Rather than swatting mosquitoes, wasps and having an army of ants nearby, winter gives us that bug-free zone that is so much more appealing for window and door installs. Your garage door upgrade or new window install can happen in peace, with nothing but the crisp winter air for company.
Advantage #2: Less Dirt, More Cleanliness
One of the not-so-expected aspects of winters in Alberta is that with frozen ground and snow-covered landscapes, there’s much less dirt and debris to deal with. Muddy footprints, tracked-in debris and wind-blown dust can turn a simple door or window install into a major cleanup project.
Good news! Winter installations are a much tidier affair. Keeping the dirt to a minimum means your home stays cleaner through the process. Just think – your winter wonderland renovation without all that mess!
Advantage #3: Cost-Effective Materials
The winter season, for us, means it’s the ultimate time for savings! Materials like windows, garage doors and other building essentials are often priced much lower during the colder months. Why? Because demand tends to dip in the winter!
With fewer people scheduling renovations, our suppliers often lower their prices on materials. This means you can upgrade your windows and/or doors without breaking the bank. In this economy, reinvesting those savings into other updates or necessities is more accessible in the winter!
Combine those savings with the durability and beauty of Knight Doors & Windows products, and you’re getting a deal fit for royalty!
