Vinyl Windows

In the past, windows were primarily made of steel, aluminum or wood. Vinyl windows were introduced in Germany following the second world war as an alternative. It wasn't until 1959 that vinyl windows were introduced as an option in the United States by the BF Goodrich Company. Since then, they have become the most popular choice for replacement windows for the home. As a result, vinyl windows now come in a wide variety of styles, shapes, and prices. They are manufactured from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and are highly energy efficient making them a great choice for adding value and livability to your home. Due to their increasing popularity, most window manufactures now offer a vinyl window line or they may offer clad windows which is a wood window with a vinyl exterior.
