When the Window Fits on Paper… But Not Quite in the Opening | Halifax, HRM
Another window installation completed in Halifax — and this one required a little more than simply setting the new window into place.
The new unit was an extremely tight fit for the existing rough opening. Rather than forcing the window in and compromising the installation, we carefully removed material from the rough opening with a planer until we had the clearance needed to properly position, level, and secure the window.
And with the window located on the second floor, access added another layer to the job.
Once the opening was properly prepared, the new window was set in place and securely fastened. From there, we completed the finishing work on both sides:
• Exterior trim
• Interior jamb extensions
• Interior casing
The result is a properly fitted window with clean finishing inside and out.
A few millimetres can be the difference between “it almost fits” and an installation done properly. Sometimes the most important part of the job is knowing how to adapt the opening instead of forcing the product to fit.
Another one completed in Halifax, HRM.
