Full-Frame Window Replacement

Full-Frame Window Replacement in Grand Rapids

When an old window comes out and the frame underneath is rotted, out of square, or hiding failed flashing, an insert will not fix the real problem. Full-frame replacement strips the opening down to the rough frame and sill so we can repair the framing and reflash it properly before the new unit goes in. It is also the method that lets you change the size or style of a window. Writerphiladelphia handles full-frame work across Grand Rapids, from Heritage Hill bungalows to homes near Plainfield Avenue.

Why Choose Full-Frame

• It fixes what you cannot see. Water damage and rot around a 40-year-old opening only surface once the old frame is gone. Full-frame lets us make it right.
• New flashing and weather seal. We reflash to shed water under the IRC R703 weather-barrier approach, so the wall stays dry for the long haul.
• Freedom to resize. Want a larger window or a different shape? Full-frame is the only method that opens that door.

Our Process

We measure the opening, remove the old window and frame down to the studs, repair any rot, and install new flashing. Then we set the insulated low-E unit plumb and square, foam the gaps, and finish the interior and exterior trim so it looks original. Most single openings are done the same day the material is ready.
