Choose your city
Pennsylvania's climate demands windows that can withstand both heat and cold. Our installation process accounts for the need for robust insulation and air sealing to combat the humidity of summer and the frigid temperatures of winter. We begin by inspecting your existing windows and the surrounding wall structure to identify any potential issues that might affect the new installation. This detailed assessment is crucial for a successful outcome.
Once the assessment is complete, we proceed with the careful removal of your old windows. The new windows are then measured to exact specifications and prepared for installation. Our team ensures the new window frames are set perfectly plumb and level before securing them. We then apply specialized sealants and insulation around the frame to create a continuous thermal barrier, preventing drafts and moisture intrusion. The final stages involve installing interior and exterior trim for a clean, finished appearance.
