Full-Frame Window Replacement

Full-Frame Window Replacement in Grand Rapids

Full-frame replacement takes the old window all the way down to the rough opening, including the frame, sill, and trim. That is the point of it. Once the opening is exposed, we can repair rotted framing, fix failed flashing, and correct the water problems that a simple insert window would just hide. Fretboardsummit recommends this method when the frames are damaged or you want to change the window size.

Why Choose Full-Frame

• It fixes the real problem. Soft, swollen, or water-stained frames point to rot behind the window, and a new sash alone will not stop it. Going to the rough opening lets us address it.
• Proper flashing. We reflash and air-seal the opening under IRC R703 guidance so water is directed out of the wall, not into it.
• Size flexibility. Because the whole opening is open, you can go larger, add an egress unit, or change the shape.

Our Process

We start with a free in-home evaluation and tell you honestly whether full-frame is warranted or whether an insert or repair would do. When full-frame is the call, we template the opening, remove the old unit, repair any rot, install and flash the new ENERGY STAR window with argon-filled low-E glass, then finish the interior and exterior trim clean.
