How Does Stained Glass Pay for Itself?

Here at Scottish we like to tell our client’s that stained glass is more than just a lovely and that it pays for itself.  The reason for this is simple–stained glass adds to a house’s value. The benefits of having stained glass on your Denver home therefore, are more than just aesthetic but monetary as well.  Find out how stained glass pays off for homeowners with the foresight to have it installed/

Stained Glass Appraises For More Than You  Pay

The price of stained glass varies depending on what you want.  However, a good range is anywhere from $11-$17 per square foot for standard designs and $50+ for custom.  While this cost is higher than a regular window, curtains or drapes–the impact on the value of your home is significant.  For example, a stained glass window that costs you $300 can be expected to appraise anywhere from 5x-10x more. Not a bad return for something you get to enjoy throughout the life of your home.

Stained Glass Increases Curb Appeal on Your Denver Home

Stained glass is gorgeous.  This can be agreed upon by almost anybody–including prospective buyers.  If the glass is on front-facing window–in sidelights, transoms or front doors, this adds greatly to the curb appeal of your home. When it comes to the value of your home from a curb appeal point of view–stained glass significant adds to it.  This means, should you go to sell your home, not only could it fetch a better price at closing but also sell faster. The faster you are able to sell your home the more likely you are to avoid paying two mortgages or losing value. Therefore, stained glass pays for itself by saving you money when you sell your home too.
