Whole-Home Window Upgrade in Plano
The Challenge
This 1990s-era home near Legacy West still had its original single-pane aluminum windows. The homeowner was dealing with excessive summer heat gain, noticeable street noise from nearby Legacy Drive, and condensation forming between the glass on several units. Monthly cooling bills were running well above average for the neighborhood.
Our Solution
We removed all 14 original windows and replaced them with Andersen 400 Series double-hung windows featuring Low-E4 glass and argon gas fill. Each opening was inspected for moisture damage, reframed where necessary, and sealed with expanding foam and backer rod for a weathertight fit. Exterior trim was wrapped in color-matched aluminum for a clean, finished look that requires no painting.
The Result
The homeowner reported an immediate reduction in street noise and a noticeably cooler interior even before the air conditioning cycled on. Their first full-month energy bill after installation was 22% lower than the same month the previous year. The updated window profile also refreshed the home's curb appeal, drawing compliments from neighbors.

“We should have done this years ago. The difference in noise and temperature is night and day. The crew was professional, fast, and left the house cleaner than they found it.”
