Great Panes 3 common questions (and answers) about log home window replacement.

Back in the day, most log homes were built with wood-framed windows. Though seemingly right in line with an all-wood home like a log home, over time, these windows can become difficult to open or close, either due to expansion/contraction with the weather or because years of paint build-up has caused them to stick.

If a home’s been built in the past 10 to 15 years, chances are the windows are aluminum or vinyl-clad and are in good operational order. However, even if they function well, recent advances in the window and door industry have brought an abundance of exciting new products to the marketplace, and you may be thinking about taking advantage of their benefits. These new windows are Energy Star rated, have better insulation properties and enhanced features, like argon-gas filled cavities or low-E coatings that protect against UV rays.
