Installing a new window is a straightforward task—on paper. But in aging, occupied, or historically significant buildings, a window replacement project involves far more than the unit being removed or installed.

In older or actively used buildings, a simple window replacement often evolves into something more complex—requiring investigation, hazardous material abatement, detailed phasing, and coordination with surrounding systems.

Visible signs of a window failure—leaking, fogging, bubbling paint, or draft complaints—are often treated as isolated maintenance issues. But in building enclosure diagnostics, windows rarely fail on their own.

Preserving or renovating a historic property is a complex process. Having the right architectural partner will ensure your project is a success.
