Energy-Saving Window Replacement and Upgrades
Even if your current windows seem fine, energy‑efficient replacements can reduce heat loss, lower utility bills, and enhance comfort without sacrificing safety. You'll gain measurable performance by combining Low‑E upgrades with gas fills and warm‑edge spacers to minimize U‑factor and solar heat gain without losing visible light. We assess orientation, local climate, and code requirements to specify glazing that meets ENERGY STAR targets for Burien.
Glass is only part of the equation—window framing enhancements are equally important. We recommend insulated fiberglass, vinyl, or thermally broken aluminum frames, sealed with backer rod and low‑expansion foam to stop air leakage and condensation.

We validate scope, assign responsibilities, and establish permit timelines so you know when work begins and inspections happen. We process submittals, drawings, and calculations, then coordinate HOA approval, aligning design details with community standards to minimize delays.
We provide transparent Code updates impacting glass placement and opening dimensions. Before installation, we conduct verification checklists: tempered markings, fall‑prevention, safety rails, and emergency egress. While performing work, we copyright jobsite compliance and schedule inspections. After approval, we file permits for your records and future resale.
Selecting the Right Glass, Hardware, and Warranties
Prior to ordering any single pane, we align glass types and hardware to your residence's exposures, safety zones, and performance objectives.
