Replace Windows That No Longer Seal Properly

Professional window installation services for homeowners in Durango, Colorado.

When your windows in Durango let in drafts during winter or fog up between the panes, replacing them restores both insulation and visibility. You depend on your windows to keep indoor temperatures stable and reduce noise from outside, and worn seals or outdated frames make that impossible. Hase Home Remodeling and Renovations LLC removes your old windows and installs new units that fit your home's openings and your preferences for style and energy performance.

Window installation begins with measuring each opening to confirm the new units will fit without gaps. The team removes the existing windows, checks the framing for rot or moisture damage, and makes any necessary repairs before setting the new windows in place. Each unit is leveled, shimmed, insulated around the perimeter, and secured with fasteners that prevent movement. Interior and exterior trim is then installed to seal the opening and match your home's finish.

What Happens During a Window Replacement

Your window installation in Durango starts with selecting the right type of window for each opening, whether that means double-hung, casement, sliding, or fixed units. The crew protects your floors and furniture, then carefully removes the old windows along with any damaged trim or sill material. Each rough opening is inspected for structural issues, and any compromised wood is replaced before the new window goes in.

Once the new windows are installed, you will notice that condensation no longer forms between the panes, cold air stops seeping through the edges, and the windows open and lock smoothly without sticking. The glass stays clear, the frames sit flush against the wall, and outside noise is noticeably reduced.

The final step includes caulking the exterior perimeter to prevent water infiltration and applying interior trim that matches your existing woodwork. If you are replacing multiple windows, the crew completes one room at a time to limit exposure and maintain security. The work does not include repainting walls or repairing siding unrelated to the window openings.

Questions That Come Up Before Replacing Windows

Homeowners in Durango often ask about timing, materials, and what to prepare before the crew arrives, so here are answers to the most common concerns.

How long does it take to install new windows?
Most single window replacements take two to three hours, including removal, installation, insulation, and trim work. Replacing multiple windows in one visit can take a full day depending on the number of openings and any framing repairs needed.
What type of windows work best in Durango?
Double-pane or triple-pane windows with low-emissivity coatings perform well in cold climates by reducing heat loss and preventing condensation. Your choice of frame material, such as vinyl, wood, or fiberglass, depends on your budget and maintenance preferences.
When should I replace my windows instead of repairing them?
You should replace windows when the seals have failed and moisture appears between the panes, when the frames are rotting or warping, or when the units no longer open or lock securely. Repairs work for minor hardware issues but not for structural or seal failures.
What do I need to do before the installation crew arrives?
Clear furniture and décor away from each window so the crew has at least three feet of workspace on both sides. Remove curtains, blinds, and any window treatments that could get damaged or interfere with access.
Will the new windows match my home's exterior?

Yes, you can choose frame colors and grid patterns that match or complement your existing trim and siding. Hase Home Remodeling and Renovations LLC helps you select options that fit your home's style and architectural details.
