Picture Window Installation

What This Service Involves

Picture windows are fixed panes designed to capture a view and maximize daylight, a welcome feature during our long gray seasons. Without any operating parts, they seal tightly and offer excellent energy efficiency. We handle the framing and support needed for large glass and detail the flashing so no rain finds its way behind the unit. The payoff is an unobstructed, gallery-like view of your surroundings.

Benefits

Maximum unobstructed glass and daylight; Excellent seal and energy efficiency with no moving parts; Ideal for showcasing yard, water, or mountain views; Low maintenance with no hardware to service; Pairs well with operable windows for ventilation

Our Process

1) Confirm the opening and structural support for large glass; 2) Remove any existing unit and prep the frame; 3) Set and secure the fixed picture window; 4) Flash, seal, and finish interior and exterior trim

What Affects the Cost

Overall glass size and weight; Structural header or support requirements; Glazing coatings and pane count; Access and handling for large units; Trim and finish details

Best Time of Year

Large fixed units are easiest to set and seal during calm, dry weather, though we protect the opening in any conditions.
