Residential Window Work in Follansbee
Most of our Follansbee work is residential. The housing stock runs older, with a lot of 1950s to 1970s homes that still have original wood windows. Families here want lower gas bills, windows that open without a fight, and a job done in a day or two without tearing the house apart. We handle full house window replacement and single window replacement, and we match the new units to the existing trim so the exterior stays consistent.
We replace every window in the home in one job, usually one to three days. On a Follansbee valley home that means cutting out rotted sills, installing sill pan and flashing tape, and setting new low-E units room by room. You get a consistent look and one warranty.
One failed unit does not mean a whole-house job. We match the new window to the rest of the house, seal it correctly, and you are done in two to four hours. This is the most common call we get in Follansbee, and there is no minimum order.
Double hung is the standard for Follansbee bedrooms and living rooms because both sashes tilt in for cleaning. Casements go on the sides where you want full ventilation and a tight seal. We set both with setting blocks and shims so they operate smoothly.
Bay and bow windows add light and floor space, but they need a proper header and a flashed roof over the projection. We build the rough opening, set the unit level, and seal every joint. Older Follansbee homes often need the framing corrected before the bay goes in.
- Lower winter gas bills from low-E glass, argon gas, and a sealed perimeter that stops the draft.
- Windows that open, close, and stay up without sticking, even in valley humidity.
- A one to three day install with floors covered and every scrap cleaned up before we leave.
