Window Installation and Replacement in South Jersey

Garden State Gutters installs and replaces windows on homes across South Jersey. A window is only as good as the way it is flashed, sealed and trimmed into the wall, and that is the same water-management work we do on gutters, siding and metal trim. Call (856) 768-9774 for a free estimate.

When is it time to replace windows?

Most windows tell you. They get hard to open or will not stay up, you feel a draft standing next to them in January, or the glass fogs up between the panes where you cannot wipe it. Fog inside the glass means the seal has failed and the insulating value went with it.

The frame matters as much as the glass. Soft or rotted wood at the sill, peeling paint that keeps coming back and water stains on the wall below a window all point to water getting where it should not.

Why does window installation matter?

A window is a hole in the wall, and the installation is what keeps that hole dry. Water runs down the siding in every storm, and it has to be turned out and around the opening instead of behind it. That is the job of the flashing at the top and sides and the pan at the sill.

A well-made window that is set out of square, sealed in the wrong order or trimmed without flashing will leak and stick no matter what it cost. Installed correctly, it opens easily, seals tight and keeps the wall around it dry.

  • Flashing

    Water coming down the wall is directed over and around the window, not behind the trim.

  • Square and level

    A window set true opens, closes and locks the way it was built to.

  • Sealed and insulated

    The gap between the window and the framing is sealed against drafts.

  • Finished trim

    The outside is trimmed so it sheds water and looks right with the rest of the house.

How do windows tie in with siding and metal trim?

Windows sit in the middle of everything else we work on. The siding butts up to them, the metal trim wraps their frames, and overflowing gutters are a common reason the wood around a window rots in the first place.

If you are planning new siding, it is the natural time to look at the windows, because the trim and flashing around each opening are being redone anyway. Doing both together means the joints between them are built once, in the right order.

What should I think about when choosing windows?

Every house is different, so we go over the options with you in person. These are the questions that usually decide it.

Choosing new windows

  • How you want each window to open, and which ones you actually open
  • How easy the glass is to clean from inside
  • Energy performance for South Jersey summers and winters
  • Frame color inside and out, and how it looks with your siding and trim
  • Whether the existing frames and sills are sound or need repair first

Window questions

Question not here? Call (856) 768-9774.

Do you install windows as well as gutters?

Yes. Garden State Gutters installs and replaces windows along with gutters, gutter protection, soffit, metal trim, roofing, siding and doors.

Can windows be replaced without replacing the siding?

In most cases, yes. The trim and flashing around each opening are redone as part of the installation. If you are planning new siding soon, doing both together is usually cleaner.

Why is there fog between the panes of my window?

The seal between the panes has failed, so moist air has gotten in. It cannot be wiped away, and the glass no longer insulates the way it did.

Can you replace just a few windows?

Yes. Tell us which windows are giving you trouble and we will price those.

Do you offer free window estimates?

Yes. Call (856) 768-9774 for a free consultation and estimate.
