Frontenac homes and this kind of project
A window or door replacement in Frontenac means working in estate homes from mid-century to new, so on our first visit we look at each opening for square, rot and water staining to decide between insert and full-frame.
The housing stock here: estate homes on lots of an acre or more, from mid-century to new.
Clad-wood and steel-look units are ordered to match existing sightlines.
Lots, exteriors and approvals in Frontenac
Covered terraces, pavilions and additions with close attention to the city's site and tree rules.
Large homes in Frontenac have complicated rooflines, plenty of wood trim and extensive window packages, all of which need disciplined maintenance. We replace failing wood with rot-proof materials milled to identical profiles.
What is included
Our Frontenac window and door scope includes measuring, ordering, removal and disposal, framing repair, flashing, installation, insulation, interior casing, exterior trim or aluminum capping, caulking, paint and hardware.
We take on window or door replacement work in and around estates off Clayton, Geyer and Spoede roads.
What we watch for
Wood brickmould around vinyl windows on Frontenac brick fronts rots at the lower corners. We replace it with PVC during the window installation.
Working on acre-plus sites, as we do in Frontenac, we plan access for window installers and a trim carpenter before the first delivery arrives.

Frontenac sits toward the edge of our range: down I-64 to Lindbergh, around forty minutes. We group trade visits and deliveries carefully for projects at that distance, and we take them on when the scope justifies a dedicated crew.

Door & Window Replacement in Frontenac: common questions
How long does a window or door replacement take in Frontenac?
A whole house of windows installs in two to four days. For Frontenac we group trade visits to keep that schedule tight despite the drive.
Do I need approval beyond a permit for a window or door replacement in Frontenac?
Possibly. In Frontenac you may be dealing with the city's architectural review. City or county approval and private approval are separate, and we prepare both submittals and wait for written approval before ordering materials.
Do you replace only the glass?
Fogged insulated glass units can sometimes be replaced within a sound frame. We will tell you when that makes sense.
