Windows are an absolutely essential component of any home because they bring us fresh air, natural light, and a great view of the neighborhood. But they can also cause some major problems for property owners when they deteriorate and are in serious need of window replacement.

This process can be a lot more involved than many people suspect, and our team has the skill and training to do it correctly so it looks great and is energy efficient.

Pocket Vs. Full-frame Window Replacement

There are two possible approaches for window replacement: pocket or full-frame installation. Full-frame is more or less what it sounds like—the frame, glass, and sash are completely removed and a whole new package is installed. With pocket replacement, on the other hand, only the glass panes and sashes are taken out while the frame remains in place, and new sashes and panes are put in.

When it comes to window replacement, Oklahoma City professionals will tell you that pocket and full-frame installations both have their own pros and cons to consider. Pocket replacement is generally less expensive and easier to install than a full-frame replacement, but on the downside, frame and sash components reduce the amount of visible glass overall which can downsize the height and width of the pane by as much as two or three inches. Understandably, many homeowners aren't thrilled with the idea of smaller panes. Another point of consideration is that there are many choices available for full-frame installation, but far fewer choices for pocket units. That means a full frame will be a better option if you want to change up your style.

Regardless of whether you decide to go with a full-frame or pocket replacement, you can trust our team to arrive on time for your appointment, assess the project thoroughly, and clearly explain our recommendations for the options best suited to your specific property, so that you can make the best decision possible about your property’s needs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Window Replacement

Do I Really Need Window Replacement Or Just A Few Repairs?

The old replace or repair question is pretty common, and that's reasonable. There's no sense in going all the way to a window replacement if you just need a couple of repairs. The key factor to consider is whether replacement or repair is the most cost-effective option.

If the problem is with a part of the window that can't be repaired or is difficult to repair, or there's widespread damage across the whole unit, putting in a new one will be less costly, and the result will be more attractive, long-lasting, and durable. In either situation, you can expect the work to be done correctly when you choose a team of local experts like Mr. Handyman.

What Are The Signs That Window Replacement Is Necessary?

Not sure if your property absolutely needs window replacement? Oklahoma City business owners and homeowners should regularly check their property for the following signs that it's time for window replacement:

  • Broken Glass: It doesn't take an expert to figure out that you need window replacement for a smashed pane. Keep in mind that it may be feasible to replace just the pane and leave the sashes and frames where they are, provided they are in good condition.
  • Misty or Fogged Panes: If you have foggy-looking windows with condensation between the panes, it's occurring because your insulated glass unit has a broken seal around the edges of the glass that is letting in air, resulting in a misty or fogged look caused by condensation. That's obviously unappealing, but it's also a clear sign that your window is less energy efficient because it has lost its insulating qualities.
  • Leaking Frames: Wooden frames that have been slowly rotting and deteriorating over time are commonly to blame for water leaks near windows. Signs of a leak include damage to flooring material or drywall below a window unit, or rotting wood on the exterior or interior trim.
  • You Have Single-Pane Windows: Older, single-pane windows are much less efficient than their modern alternatives, and they’re much more likely to suffer from problems like wood rot in the frames or drafts. In most cases, replacing them is recommended.

What Time Of Year Is Best For Window Replacement?

The perfect time of year to get window replacement is when the weather is nice in late spring, summer, or early fall. After all, there will be a big hole in your wall during the replacement process, and you don't exactly want that happening in January.
