Window Replacement for Brick Homes

While replacing windows on a home with a brick exterior may seem like a daunting endeavor, the truth is that window replacement for brick homes is actually not any more or less difficult than any other style of home. The key to a flawless installation on a brick house – or any other type of house – is correct measurement from the beginning of the project. This is by far the most crucial aspect of installation because accurate measurements ensure a snug fit that will eliminate air drafts and provide years of performance.

Measuring for Window Replacement

In order to measure for window replacement on a brick home, the interior molding must first be removed. Then, take a tape measure and measure between the vertical legs of the casement, across the top and in the middle, and at the bottom of the opening. All casement angles should be a flush 90-degrees. Once all measurements are completed, the vinyl window replacements can be ordered and delivered and prepped for installation. When removing the old windows, it is important to note that brick veneer may be more brittle than other home exterior materials like vinyl and wood. This means that more caution and more precise tools must be used when removing old windows.

Installation Process

Once the old windows are removed, the replacement windows can be inserted into the window opening and caulked around the outside to ensure a tight, sealed fit that eliminates drafty air. From this point, you can decide to paint or stain the interior and exterior of the window to match the décor of your home.
