The type of window installation that's best for your home depends on the age, condition, and exterior materials of your house and existing window. Full-frame window installation includes a new window, frame, sill, and internal and external trim. The new window is sealed and insulated during the install. Pocket installation involves replacing the window and keeping the current frame, and is fast and affordable.

Window replacement entails removing the old window and installing a new one. Consider window replacement when the seals start to leak or fail, there's visible glass damage, condensation forms inside or between panes, or the windows are hard to open and close. You can also replace windows to improve insulation, energy efficiency, and UV protection.

Home siding generally lasts 10-15 years. You may need to hire a professional to fix or replace siding if you notice cracks, warps, blisters, bubbles, fungus, or mold. Repairs or replacement may also be warranted if you have severe fading or signs of internal moisture on walls. You can also upgrade your siding to improve insulation and reduce heating and cooling bills or to transition to a material that is easier to maintain.

Retexturing can help repair and rejuvinate stucco on the outside of your home, and can add visual interest and hide imperfections inside. Retexturing stucco can allow you to smooth it, making cleaning and maintenance easier. During exterior retexturing, the professional will power-wash the home, apply a new stucco base coat, and then apply the finish. Inside, retexturing walls involves removing any existing texture, repairing the drywall as needed, and applying compound, spray, stipple, or velvet texture. After it dries, the wall can be primed and painted.

Exterior and interior painting can refresh and protect your home. Exterior painting not only increases curb appeal, but it can also extend the life of siding and help prevent termite, mold, and sun damage. Interior painting is an easy way to personalize your space, add appeal, make your walls cleaner, and hide marks and repaired damage.
