Whether you embark on a DIY journey or hire a contractor, there are many value-added remodeling projects you may want to make for your home—the ideas are endless.
Some surface-level updates you may choose to make include adding storage solutions, painting the walls, trims, and doors, removing popcorn ceilings, and more. Or you may have a few larger projects in mind, such as replacing your countertops, flooring, and installations.

3 Window & Door Remodeling Ideas to Consider
If window and door upgrades are on your home renovation list, you may want to consider how the following ideas can enhance and complement your spaces.
#1: Kitchen & Bathroom Spaces
The two most common spaces to renovate and remodel in a home are kitchens and bathrooms. They also happen to have the greatest renovation ROI. Take some time to evaluate those spaces in your home and how you can rethink the use of windows and doors in them.
Could they benefit from adding a window or door? Do you want to increase the room’s natural illumination or allow a refreshing breeze to come through?
When it comes to adding a window to your kitchen, the most common location is above the sink. Maybe your kitchen already has a window there, but you would prefer it to be larger.
Bathrooms are private spaces, but that doesn’t mean that they have to be dark and dingy. You can easily add a boost of natural illumination to your bathroom with a window. Consider treatments that obscure the view and maintain privacy, such as frosted glass, or place the window higher on the wall. Two common bathroom window placements are above the bathtub or in the shower which also helps create a relaxing, spa-like atmosphere.
#2: Rearrange Your Window Placements
Nearly every room in a home has a window or two, but they may not be the ideal placement, size, or style that you prefer. When you choose to remodel your home, you open up the opportunity to re-arrange and play with your current window layout, dimensions, and aesthetics.
If you enjoy a lot of natural illumination and a more seamless indoor-outdoor connection, a picture window may be an ideal remodel option for your space.
#3: Replace Your Windows With Doors
Your home should look and function the way you need it to. For example, a sliding glass door may fit in some spaces better than a window. So, ask yourself if your windows are functional where there are or would a door serve the space better.
If that’s the case in your home, then a window and door remodel is a perfect opportunity to upgrade those installations. Many homeowners also choose to make this change in their homes so they can enjoy easier access to the outdoors.
