How vinyl replacement windows (might) look different on the outside of your house

If you are considering replacing your old wooden windows (especially older colonial style windows with a traditional sloped sill) with vinyl replacement windows, we want you to know what to expect regarding how the look on the outside of your house will change.
If retaining a look similar to those old wooden windows is important to you, a wood-clad replacement window might be a better choice.
At 12 Penny Exteriors we love giving you choices! We install all kinds of windows, from high quality vinyl replacements to any style of wood-clad window and beyond. Check out our website and get in touch if we can help improve the windows of your home.

I wish I would've seen this BEFORE I had replacement windows put in recently. I don't like how they look like on the edges outside. Awfully rough around the edges of the sill and the sills fill with water even though there are holes for wzter to drain. It doesn't. They are Vector windows and I hate them.

I am sorry you are not liking your new windows I have never heard of Vector windows (there are literally 100s of window manufacturers!) but they should definitely be draining. The rough edges are typical of many vinyl windows as that edge is tough to get smooth. Provia offers fine line which is a different process making those edges look more like mitered corners. ProVia patented the technology so they are the only ones offering it.
That doesn’t help you now, I know. Can you reach out to the installer or the window company directly to make sure they are properly draining?
