Sometimes replacing a window involves a little more than just replacing the window.
These original garage windows had definitely seen better days, but once the old windows came out, there was another challenge waiting for us. There wasn’t a proper wood frame in the openings to securely anchor the new vinyl windows to.
Rather than trying to make the new windows work with what was there, we built new window boxes inside the existing masonry openings to give the windows a solid, properly sized structure to be installed into.
From there, we installed the new vinyl windows, completely retrimmed the interiors, and finished the exterior in black aluminum at the homeowner’s request to give some contrast against the white windows and red brick.
Old homes don’t always give you perfect openings to work with—and that’s where the installation matters just as much as the window.
If you’re considering replacing the windows or doors in your home, I’d be happy to take a look and talk through your options.
