Windows & Doors
Windows and doors sit at a demanding intersection: weather outside, finished surfaces inside, and constant everyday use. Correct sizing, sill and flashing details, alignment, and trim integration matter from the first measurement onward.

Plan with fewer unknowns
Questions before you begin
Replace the unit or change the opening?
A like-for-like replacement and a wider or relocated opening involve different questions. Describe operation, drafts, moisture or layout concerns so the review addresses the cause and the intended result.
What needs confirming before ordering?
Measurements, swing, clearances, safety or egress needs, flashing and interior trim all influence the choice. Manufacturer dimensions and lead times should be confirmed against the actual opening before a product order is finalized.
