Full-Frame Window Replacement

Full-Frame Window Replacement in Toledo

Full-frame replacement removes the entire old window down to the rough opening, including the frame and sill. Kenandersonfoundation uses this method when the existing frame is rotted, out of square, or the flashing has failed, which is common in Toledo homes near a century old. Taking it back to the studs lets us repair the framing and re-flash the opening before the new unit goes in.

Why Choose Full-Frame

An insert fits inside the old frame, so it cannot fix a frame that is already failing. Full-frame replacement can. It also lets you change the window size, add a code-compliant egress opening, and put tempered safety glass exactly where the building code requires it near doors and low sills. When water has been getting in, this is the method that actually stops it, because we rebuild the weather barrier instead of covering it.

Our Process

We remove the window to the rough opening, inspect and repair any rotted framing, and install new flashing tape so the opening sheds water per the exterior wall covering code. Then we set the new frame plumb and square, insulate the gaps with low-expansion foam, and finish the interior and exterior trim. Homes along Bancroft Street and out in DeVeaux get a clean, water-tight result.
