Steps for Window Replacement Installation
The whole process can seem intimidating, but it doesn't need to be. As with any 
home maintenance or upgrades, careful planning, and good decision-making 
should ensure a straightforward installation experience. Be sure to first define 
your goals and budget for the new windows. Consider any neighborhood 
rules such as historic district requirements. How much time do you have in your 
schedule for the work to be done? Is the schedule realistic and is extra time 
built-in? Answering these questions first will help narrow down your best options, 
especially when consulting with a window expert.

Ensure a Proper Fit
Measure for Replacement
Our window installation professionals measure the opening where the new windows will go 
to make sure that they're the right size. This can include measuring the height and width 
of the existing window frames to determine an accurate size for your new windows.
Take Out Current Windows
The exact way to remove current windows for a window replacement depends on certain 
factors, which our experts take into consideration. For example, some windows might have 
screws in place that need to be taken out. Others might have sash springs or weights that 
will need to be taken out. Windows with stops need to have interior or exterior stops 
removed depending on where the installation is taking place. Outdoor installation requires 
removing exterior stops, while indoor installation requires removing interior stops. If there 
is any wood damage, our professionals will repair it before installing your new windows.
Clean the Area and Apply Flashing
Our team will clean the area before putting your new windows in, such as removing any 
debris left behind from scraping paint along edges in order to remove the current 
windows. We then apply flashing tape to the entire sill area.
Level the Sill
The sill needs to be level in order for new windows to open and close properly. If the sill is not level, our experts use 
shims to correct this. These shims are typically held in place firmly with flashing tape and screws.
Caulk the Frame
Our professionals apply caulk along the top of the window frame and along the window sill and stops. This helps 
ensure that there are no gaps or openings around your new windows. We usually place the new windows in the 
frame first to get a better idea of where spaces or gaps might occur.
Put the New Window in Place
Our team sets the new window in the frame and ensures that it rests firmly in place. We use shims, which should 
go inside screw holes in the frame, to hold the window in place. These shims are then secured in the frame with 
screws.
Check for a Proper Fit
Our window replacement professionals make sure that the new window sashes are even within the frame. If the 
sashes are uneven, we can place shims at the meeting rails. Once the sashes are even, our experts open and close 
the window to make sure it works properly by opening and closing smoothly. New windows should not get stuck or 
slide up and down too easily or quickly.
Insulate New Windows
New windows might have exterior gaps that need to be filled in. This can be done using spray foam insulation, 
which helps prevent drafts from occurring and keeps indoor heat from escaping.
Install the Sill Adapter and Trim
Our professionals cut the sill adapter to the right width, then drill holes in the bottom of it, so that it can be held in 
place. We typically use finish nails for installing the exterior trim, which runs along the edges of the window frame. 
The edges are then sealed using caulk. Our experts use caulk on the edges of the interior trim as well to seal up 
any openings or gaps.
This entire process is critical because the most advanced windows won't help your house unless they 
are properly seated and fully sealed from outside air and moisture. This can take a few hours per window.
