Interior Window Replacement
Project Overview
This project involved replacing multiple outdated interior windows throughout the home with modern, energy-efficient units. The existing windows showed signs of age, poor insulation, and reduced clarity. The goal was to improve natural light, thermal performance, and overall interior appearance across several rooms.
Analysis
The original windows had worn seals and inefficient glazing, contributing to drafts and heat loss. Each opening was inspected to confirm structural integrity and proper sizing for direct-fit replacements. Different room conditions required consistent alignment, insulation, and finish quality to maintain a uniform look throughout the home.
Process
- Carefully removed old windows without damaging surrounding walls or finishes - Cleaned and prepared each opening - Installed new windows according to manufacturer specifications - Applied insulation and sealed all edges to prevent air infiltration - Finished trim work for a clean, consistent interior appearance
Outcome
The new windows significantly improved energy efficiency, natural light, and overall comfort across multiple rooms. Drafts were eliminated, insulation performance was improved, and the updated windows provided a clean, modern finish throughout the home.
