Yes - modern double-pane low-E windows cut heat loss substantially compared to single-pane originals. The energy bill savings won't pay for the windows in 5 years, but the comfort difference (less drafty, less condensation, quieter) is real and immediate.

Not automatically. A 20-year-old vinyl double-pane window that still seals, still operates, and shows no fogging between the panes has life left in it, and replacing it is a comfort upgrade rather than a repair. What changes the answer is failure: fogging or condensation between the panes means the seal is gone and the insulating value with it, sashes that no longer lock or slide are a security and air-leak problem, and rot in a wood frame will keep spreading. In Clark County we also see 20-year-old builder-grade units in late-90s and early-2000s subdivisions that were the cheapest option at the time and are now the coldest wall in the house. We will tell you honestly if yours have time left.

Insert when the existing frame is sound and you're not changing size - faster, lower cost, less interior disruption. Full-frame when there's rot in the rough opening, water damage in the surrounding sheathing, or you want a different size. We inspect first and recommend based on what we find.

Yes - sliding glass, French, and full patio door systems. The pan-flashed threshold is the critical detail in PNW climate; we treat the threshold and pan-flash every install to keep water out.

Yes. Quality Master is a licensed Washington and Oregon contractor. We install windows from major manufacturers and follow their install specs to maintain the manufacturer warranty. Full warranty on labor on top of the product warranty.

Insert (retrofit) replacements typically don't require a permit. Full-frame replacements that change the rough opening size, egress windows, and structural changes (bay window cuts, header changes) do require a permit. We pull what's needed.

Most 10-15 window projects take 1 day on site. We arrive in the morning, work room-by-room, and finish before evening. Larger or full-frame projects run 1-3 days.

Triple-pane has three glass layers vs. double-pane's two. Triple-pane is better in cold climates (Chicago, Minneapolis) and for noise reduction, but PNW's mild winters don't really require it. We recommend double-pane low-E as the standard for Clark County and triple-pane only for highway-adjacent or noise-sensitive homes.

Yes - we do single-window replacements. Often it's a basement bedroom getting an egress upgrade, or a window that's failed (broken seal, fog between panes) and needs replacement before the rest.

A code-required emergency exit window for basement bedrooms. The 2018 IRC standard is 5.7 sq ft net opening, 24" min clear height, 20" min clear width, and 44" max sill height. We cut, frame, and waterproof egress windows for basement conversions.

Yes - interior and exterior trim are part of every full window install. For insert installs we typically reuse interior trim if it's in good condition; for full-frame we replace it.

Yes - and it's a smart bundle. The siding is already coming off, so full-frame window replacement is easier. Pan-flashing details get done correctly when the wall is open.
