Installation

Proper installation of windows is critically important. Even windows with the most advanced designs won’t perform up to specifications if they’re incorrectly or hastily installed. The expert installation crew at A-Taylor Made Window takes no shortcuts. Every one of us at A-Taylor Made Window believes that no job is worth doing unless it’s done with precision. We’re proud of nothing less than perfection.

Windows can be installed using either of two methods: retrofit or new construction (or nail-on).

• Retrofit installation uses the existing frame that is already attached to the surrounding structural studs. Retrofit windows typically have window openings that are slightly smaller than original windows. Caulking seals the new insert to the existing frame.
• New construction is just that — everything is new and self-contained. Installation is more complex because it requires removal of your existing window frames and re-establishing the flashing that is critical to preventing leakages, and installation of new trim, but the results can be more architecturally pleasing.We concentrate on only one window at a time. We remove the old one and install the new one in its place before beginning work on the next window. Naturally, we’ll thoroughly clean up after ourselves and haul away your old windows as well as any construction debris.
