Houses Outlasting Their First Windows
The windows in Waunakee today
Most Waunakee houses were built in the 1980s, 1990s or 2000s and still have the windows they came with, now 20 to 45 years old. Early vinyl from the 1980s and 1990s tends to yellow, go brittle and leak at the corners. Wood windows from the same years often have rot starting at the bottom rail, where water sits.
Waunakee also has acreage and edge-of-village homes on open ground, with farm fields and Six Mile Creek nearby. Those houses take the wind straight on, and the difference between a window that seals and one that almost seals is something you feel every January.
| Built | Share of Waunakee homes | Homes, roughly |
|---|---|---|
| Before 1960 | 7% | About 430 |
| 1960 to 1979 | 12% | About 730 |
| 1980 to 1999 | 36% | About 2,190 |
| 2000 and newer | 44% | About 2,680 |
Waunakee has 6,091 homes in all. Source, US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020 to 2024 five-year estimates, table B25034, rounded.

Common questions
Waunakee Window Replacement FAQ
Do you install replacement windows in Waunakee, WI?
Yes. Waunakee is about 11 miles from our shop and part of our regular service area. Photos get you a quote, and our own crew installs.
My wood windows have soft spots at the bottom. Is that a problem?
Soft wood at the bottom rail or sill usually means rot from water sitting there, and it spreads. When we replace the window, rotten sills and exterior trim are replaced at no charge. If the rot has reached the wall framing, we show you before doing anything, and that part is billed on time and materials.
What window seals best on a windy lot?
A casement. When it closes, the sash pulls against the frame on all four sides, which gives it the best seal of any window we install that opens. Fixed picture windows seal even better, since they do not open at all.
Can you replace windows on an acreage home outside the village?
Yes. Homes in the Town of Westport, the Town of Vienna and the other areas around Waunakee are within our service area. Send photos with your address and we will confirm.
