Our Services
Related Installation Services in Austin
Window installation connects to painting, trim, door replacement, and drywall trades. These are the services most often combined with a window scope at Westlake Hills, Steiner Ranch, and Wells Branch addresses.
Painting Services
Window replacement is the right time to repaint the surrounding wall area. Sherwin-Williams Emerald covers patched zones around new Andersen and Pella units cleanly — and in Westlake Hills and Steiner Ranch, exterior trim gets Duration exterior paint to handle the west-facing UV exposure that degrades standard latex.
Trim & Baseboard Installation
New window units often need fresh interior casing after old jamb extensions are replaced. We run 3.5" colonial MDF casing around every new window, cope the inside corners, and caulk before paint. Steiner Ranch interiors finish tight with no visible gaps at the jamb-wall junction.
Door Installation
Failing exterior windows and deteriorating exterior doors often come from the same original installation era. Pairing a Pella or Andersen window package with new Masonite exterior doors in one mobilization seals the whole building envelope and cuts overhead on two separate job setups.
Flooring Installation
Window seat builds in Wells Branch and Steiner Ranch homes sometimes require flooring adjustments below the new sill height. We coordinate with the flooring trade before window installation so substrate height is confirmed before any unit is ordered — no surprises at the rough opening.
Drywall Installation
Full-frame window replacements in older Westlake Hills homes regularly reveal moisture-damaged drywall at the rough opening. We patch or replace the affected drywall, tape with FibaTape, coat with USG All Purpose joint compound, and texture to match before the new window unit is set and cased.
