        "text": "The decision to repair or replace depends on the extent of damage and the age of your current windows. Minor issues like a broken pane or faulty hardware can often be repaired. However, if your windows are old, single-paned, difficult to operate, show signs of rot, or allow significant drafts, replacement with energy-efficient windows is generally a more cost-effective long-term solution. Replacements offer better insulation, lower energy bills, increased comfort, and improved home value, which repairs rarely achieve.",
