Modern windows are built for durability, but even the best frames can show signs of wear and tear. Recognizing these indicators early can prevent minor issues from becoming major expenses.
- Rotting or Cracked Framing: Visible deterioration or cracks in the frame material.
- Peeling or Blistering Paint: Paint detaching from the frame, often indicating moisture issues.
- Broken or Loose Joints: Frames that feel wobbly or show gaps at the corners.
- Poor Weather Sealing: Noticing drafts, water leaks, or condensation around the window, even when closed.
- Termite or Insect Damage: Small holes, sawdust-like debris, or visible insects around the frame.
- Corroded Metal Framing: Rust or pitting on metal window frames.
- Mold or Mildew Growth: Dark spots or a musty smell, often indicating moisture intrusion.
- Difficulty Opening or Closing Windows: Frames that stick, jam, or are hard to operate.
