New York's climate, with its distinct four seasons, places significant demands on home windows. Our installation process focuses on creating superior insulation and air sealing to combat extreme summer heat and harsh winter cold. We begin with an in-depth assessment of your existing windows and the building's facade, identifying any structural or material considerations unique to your New York property.
After the initial evaluation, we carefully remove your old windows, ensuring minimal disruption to your living space. New windows are then measured precisely to fit your openings. The installation involves securing the new window frame, ensuring it is perfectly plumb and level, and then applying advanced sealing and insulation techniques around the perimeter. This meticulous approach creates an airtight thermal barrier, crucial for energy efficiency in a dense urban setting. The process concludes with the installation of interior and exterior trim, providing a clean, finished look.
