Design Dilemma Remodeling Windows

window sills for remodel

4 years ago

I am currently having my house remodeled, and am wondering what people think about window sills these days? My contractor sid he hasn’t done a window sill in years? Are sills a thing of the past, or still a classic look?
Thanks for your feedback!!

Home style dependent as well as HO preference. If you want window sill, have him install window sills.

I love window sills, and if I bought a house without them, they would soon be installed. It is all up to you personally though, if you like them, then you should have them.

A big thumbs up for window sills. I’d never considered or imagined not having them!

I live in a mid century ranch that we updated- the windows now have very minimal trim with no real windowsills. Our last house was more traditional so had nice 1” thick windowsills with 3 1/2” aprons. 100% dependent on the style of the home.
