Vinyl
Vinyl windows are by far the most popular windows that people choose to replace their windows. The reason for this is because they are the cheapest window available on the market. Vinyl windows are made from plastic, and some windows are made with recycled plastic. That is the reason why there are so many prices for vinyl windows are all over the place. Some are made with “virgin” vinyl, and some are made with recycled vinyl. These windows only last on average 10 years.
Wood
Wooden windows are expensive, however if they are painted and maintained properly, they can last a long time. They have been making wooden windows for over 100 years. However, if they aren’t painted and the wood becomes exposed to the weather, the windows will rot. They window’s wooden frame will eventually swell up and make the windows hard to open or close. In some cases the windows will not stay open on their own.
