Greenville Metro Area Surpasses 1 Million Residents, Increasing Demand for Door Replacements

The Greenville-Anderson-Greer metro area has surpassed 1 million residents, according to March 2026 census data. This significant population increase, projected to continue, is placing strain on the region's housing supply and intensifying demand for home improvements, particularly door replacements.

Fueled by an estimated growth of 85,894 residents between 2020 and mid-2025, the metro area faces a housing shortage exacerbated by insufficient new construction. Local government deliberations regarding infrastructure and rural character have also led to a temporary halt in approving new development projects, further limiting new housing stock.

Renewal by Andersen is responding to this demand by focusing on upgrading older homes in the area. The company offers custom front door replacements, utilizing their proprietary Fibrex material and energy-efficient glass. These upgrades aim to enhance the comfort and energy performance of existing residences, which were often built before modern efficiency standards were implemented.

With new home construction lagging behind population growth, homeowners are increasingly turning to renovations. Door replacement is a key aspect of these upgrades, helping to improve older properties' efficiency and readiness for long-term use. Renewal by Andersen provides year-round installation services and offers warranties covering materials and labor.
