Window and Door Replacement in Mountlake Terrace, Done With Care
We replace and repair windows, entry doors, patio doors and storm doors for homeowners in Mountlake Terrace, Edmonds, Lynnwood and Shoreline. Drop cloths go down before the old frames come out, plantings are covered outside, and you hear from us before each step. Most installs are finished in a single day.
Windows and Doors, Inside and Out
Window replacement makes up most of what we do: pulling out drafty aluminum sliders or fogged double panes and setting new units that are sealed, flashed and trimmed to fit your home. We also install entry doors, patio doors and storm doors. When a worn balance, a tired seal or a sticking sash is the real issue, our window repair work can often save the unit. Small offices and storefronts can call on us for commercial windows too. Every service has its own page if you would like the details before you phone.
Window Replacement
New vinyl, fiberglass or wood-clad windows measured to each opening, installed with floors and plantings covered, and cleaned up before we leave.
Entry Doors
New fiberglass, steel or wood front doors, fitted square and sealed tight, with your floors covered and the old unit hauled away.
Patio Doors
New sliding or hinged patio doors set on a properly flashed sill, with your floors covered and your deck and plantings left as we found them.
Window Repair
We fix fogged glass, failed seals, broken balances and worn hardware so a sound window keeps working without the cost of a full replacement.
Storm Doors
Full-view and retractable-screen storm doors, measured to your entry and installed with the porch, floors and plantings protected.
Commercial Windows
Replacement windows and storefront glass for offices, shops and small commercial buildings, installed in phases so your doors stay open.
How a Project Runs
Whether it is a single bedroom window or every door in the house, the steps stay the same.
- 1
A conversation by phone
You describe what is bothering you, whether that is drafts, condensation, a sticking door or simply a dated look. Then we pick a visit time that works for your household.
- 2
Measuring and options
At your home we measure every opening, check the sills and framing, and lay out frame and glass choices next to each other. You receive a written quote and plenty of time to think it over.
- 3
Ordering and scheduling
Each unit is made to the measurements we took. Once your order is in, we confirm the install date and walk you through which rooms we need and the order we will work in.
- 4
Install day
Floors and plantings get covered, the old units come out, and each new one is set, shimmed, insulated, flashed and sealed before we start the next. Most installs are finished in a single day, so no opening sits covered overnight.
- 5
Walkthrough
After cleanup, we test every sash and lock alongside you and hand over the warranty paperwork and any permit records.

A Local Crew That Works Carefully
We are a small windows and doors company based in Mountlake Terrace, and nearly all of our work happens within a short drive of home. That means we are installing in houses a lot like yours, many of them built in the 1960s and 70s with aluminum frames that sweat all winter.
We would rather spend an extra half hour on trim and sealant than rush to the next job. The materials matter, but so does the way they are set: a well-made window installed without proper flashing will still leak. We explain those choices plainly, recommend repair when repair is the honest answer, and leave your home the way we found it, only quieter and warmer.

How We Treat Your Home
A window or door job means people working in your rooms and along your foundation beds. We plan the day around keeping both in the condition you left them.
Floors protected first
Before a single trim nail comes out, we lay drop cloths and runners from the door to each opening. Furniture near the windows is moved with you, not around you, and put back where it was.
Plantings covered outside
Old frames, glass and caulk come out on the exterior side. We cover shrubs and beds below each opening and set our ladders with care, so your landscaping is still there when we leave.
You know what happens next
We tell you the order of rooms before we start, roughly when each opening will be open to the weather, and when we expect to finish. If something behind the old trim changes the plan, you hear it from us right then, with photos.
Finish work that looks intended
New windows only look right when the interior trim, the caulk lines and the exterior flashing are clean. We take the time on those details, matching existing trim where we can and leaving smooth, even sealant lines.
Cleanup before we call it done
Debris is hauled away, new glass is wiped down, and floors are vacuumed. We walk through each room with you, open and close every new sash, and show you how the locks and tilt latches work.
What Moves the Price
Every house prices out a little differently, and we would rather show our reasoning than hand you a bare number. These are the factors that shift the cost of a window or door project the most. Each one appears as its own line on your written quote, so you can see exactly where the money goes.
We measure in person and then give you a free quote with every line spelled out. Flexible payment options are available, so ask about them as we review the numbers together.
- How many openings, and how big
- One picture window and a full set for the house are very different projects. Oversized units and specialty shapes such as arches or trapezoids use more material and take longer to set than standard sizes.
- Frame material and glass
- Vinyl, fiberglass and wood-clad frames vary in cost, in finish and in how they hold up through our wet winters. Glass choices change the price too, including low-E coatings, gas fills and the tempered panes code requires near doors and tubs.
- Insert or full-frame install
- An insert unit slips into the existing frame and leaves your interior trim alone. A full-frame job takes the old window out to bare studs, so it costs more, but it gives us a clear look at the framing and a chance to redo the flashing properly.
- What we find underneath
- Older windows sometimes hide soft sills, stained framing or no flashing at all, and those need fixing before a new unit goes in. We show you photos and talk it over with you before any added work begins.
- Access and height
- Upper-floor windows, narrow side yards and openings above decks or stairwells call for more setup and more protection, which adds time.
- Permits
- When the city requires a permit for your project, we pull it ourselves and the fee is already in your quote.
Questions Homeowners Ask Us
Can my old windows be fixed, or is it time for new ones?
A worn balance, a fogged pane or tired weatherstripping is often repairable. Soft or rotting frames, cracked aluminum and water coming in around the outside of the unit point toward replacement. We look at each opening on its own and give you a straight answer, and anything worth saving goes to our window repair service.
What do you do to keep my floors and garden safe?
Drop cloths and runners go down inside before any trim comes off, and the beds and shrubs under each opening are covered outside. We place ladders with care and haul away every scrap of old glass and frame. If anything is disturbed, we put it right before we leave.
How much time does an install usually take?
Most installs are finished in a single day. Larger projects, or openings where we find damaged framing, can take longer. When that happens, we tell you before work starts rather than halfway through.
Does someone need to stay home while you work?
We like to have someone there at the start to review the plan and again at the end for the final walkthrough. During the day, most homeowners go about their routine, and we check in as each room is finished.
What warranty comes with your windows and doors?
They are covered by a lifetime warranty. We explain what that coverage includes in plain language as we review your quote, and you keep the warranty paperwork once the install is done.
Is there really no charge for the quote?
None. We come out, measure and prepare your written quote at no cost. There is no pressure to sign on the spot, and you are welcome to phone with more questions while you decide.
Are there ways to pay over time?
Yes, flexible payment options are available. Mention it during your consultation and we will explain how they could work for your project.
