Edmonds Window and Door Service Area
Older houses rarely have standard openings. We run into odd sizes, past patch jobs and hardware nobody makes anymore. We find those things before anything gets ordered, so the windows and doors you choose go in square, seal tight and open without a fight.
Where We Work
Edmonds is home base, and we travel out from here to the places around it. Up north that means Esperance, Picnic Point, Lynnwood, North Lynnwood and Alderwood Manor. To the south we cover Shoreline, Mountlake Terrace and Lake Forest Park, and to the east Martha Lake and Bothell West.
Live just past one of those towns? Ask when you call and we'll give you an honest yes or no. The first visit is the same wherever you are. We check each opening, look at the frame and sill for rot or old filler, take our own measurements and give you a free quote. In most cases the install is finished in a single day, and we haul off the old units and sweep up before the truck pulls away.

What We See in Houses Around Here
Housing age
A lot of houses in this area went up between the 1950s and the 1980s. That means single-pane wood windows, early aluminum sliders and doors that have been rehung more than once. Openings are often out of square, so we measure every one instead of assuming a standard size.
Past repairs
We often find sashes painted shut, caulk stacked over caulk, and trim patched with filler instead of fixed. Sometimes there's soft wood under a sill that looks fine from the outside. We show you what we find and tell you whether a repair will hold or the unit should be replaced.
Wet weather
Long, damp winters are hard on old windows and doors. Water gets past worn seals and sits in the frame. Cold glass sweats on the inside. New units with good seals and proper flashing keep that water out of your walls, and you'll notice less fog on the glass in the mornings.
Lead paint
Houses built before 1978 can have lead paint on the old trim and sashes. We keep dust contained, cover floors and furniture near the work, and clean up carefully when we take old units out.
Permits
Straight swaps usually don't need much paperwork, but changing the size of an opening or touching structure can. Rules vary from one city to the next. We check with your city before work starts and handle the permit when one is needed.
