New window installation for San Francisco homes, new construction openings and remodel retrofits. Properly flashed, weather-sealed, and trimmed to match original detailing on Victorian and Edwardian homes throughout the city.
Cutting a new window opening into an existing wall, or finishing one during new construction or an addition, has to look like it was always part of the home. The sightlines, the trim profile, the proportions, the way the window relates to the rest of the facade all matter.
We frame the openings cleanly, flash them properly, install the windows to manufacturer spec, and finish trim and paint so the new installs blend with the rest of the home, or stand out cleanly if that's the design intent.
For new openings, work through the location, size, and structural implications. For new construction, confirm the spec against the drawings.
Cut and frame new openings, install headers and sills sized for the load above.
Install or integrate the WRB at every new opening before flashing.
Properly flash each opening with appropriate tape and pan flashing, then install the window.
Install interior and exterior trim that matches the home's existing detailing, proportions, profiles, and finish.
Prime, paint, and finish so the installation is complete and weather-protected.
New construction openings and remodel retrofits are different work. Both require proper flashing, weather sealing, and trim that matches what's around them. Especially on Victorian and Edwardian homes where original detailing matters.
