Single Hung Window Repair & Installation

What Is a Single Hung Window?
A single hung window consists of two vertically aligned sashes. The upper sash remains stationary, while the lower sash slides upward to allow fresh air into the home. This simple yet effective design minimizes air infiltration, improves energy efficiency, and requires less maintenance than many other window styles.
Single hung windows suit a wide range of spaces, including bedrooms, living rooms, kitchens, and basements, and their clean appearance blends seamlessly with traditional, contemporary, and transitional home designs.

Installation Options for Single Hung Windows
Full-Frame Window Replacement
This installation method removes the entire window, including the frame. It allows for inspection and correction of structural issues such as moisture damage or wood rot before installing a new, fully sealed window system for maximum performance.
Retrofit Window Installation
Retrofit installation replaces only the glass and sash while keeping the existing frame intact. This option is faster and more cost-effective when the current frame is in good condition and still structurally sound.
