Window Replacement & Installation

Whether you're replacing one problem window or updating every opening in the house, the installation process matters as much as the product. A window that isn't properly flashed, shimmed, and sealed will leak air and water regardless of how good the unit itself is. We handle single-window replacements and whole-home projects for homeowners throughout Tualatin, Portland, Lake Oswego, Sherwood, and the greater metro area — and we do it right the first time so you're not calling someone back six months later.

Single-pane windows are essentially a hole in your home's thermal envelope — and in a Portland winter, you feel it in your heating bill every month. Double and triple-pane windows with low-E glass coatings and argon gas fills make a measurable difference in comfort and energy costs, and many upgrades qualify for Oregon energy efficiency tax credits. We'll walk you through the options during your estimate so you can make an informed decision for your budget and your home.

The right frame material depends on your home's style, your maintenance preferences, and your budget. Vinyl is the most popular choice — low maintenance, excellent thermal performance, and a clean look that works on most homes. Wood frames offer a classic aesthetic and can be painted to match any trim scheme but require more upkeep in the Pacific Northwest's wet climate. Fiberglass sits between the two — extremely durable, dimensionally stable, and worth the premium for high-exposure installations. We work with all three and will give you an honest recommendation for your specific situation.

A bay or bow window opens up a room in a way no other window type can — adding depth, natural light, and a focal point that changes how the space feels. These installations require more structural planning than standard replacements, particularly on load-bearing walls, and the flashing and trim work around them demands precision. We've installed bay and bow windows throughout the Portland metro area and approach each one as the custom installation it actually is.

The style of window you choose affects how a room ventilates, how easy it is to operate, and how it reads from the street. Casement windows crank open fully for maximum airflow and seal tightly when closed — a strong choice for bedrooms and living areas. Sliders work well in spaces with limited clearance for a swinging sash. Awning windows hinge at the top and can stay open in light rain — a particularly practical feature for Pacific Northwest homes. We help you choose the right style for each opening based on how the space actually gets used.

If you're finishing a basement or converting a below-grade room into a bedroom, egress window installation isn't optional — it's a code requirement in Oregon and Washington. We handle the full scope: excavation, concrete cutting, window well installation, and proper egress unit sizing to meet IRC requirements. Done correctly it's also a meaningful source of natural light and ventilation for a space that often has neither.

New windows deserve a finish that looks intentional from the inside. We complete every window installation with proper interior casing — primed, fitted, and ready for paint — so the project looks finished rather than like a rough-in waiting for someone else to come back. If your existing trim was damaged during removal or you want to update the style while the windows are out, we handle that as part of the same scope.
