Built in the 1980s, Still on Original Windows

The windows in DeForest today

The 1980s were DeForest’s busiest decade for building, and many of those ranches and split-levels are still on their original windows. At forty years old, those windows usually have worn-out weatherstripping, balances that no longer hold, and glass seals that failed years ago.

The 1990s and 2000s brought larger subdivisions and two-story homes, many with builder-grade vinyl now at the twenty to thirty year mark. Near the Yahara River and on the edges of the village, homes sit on open ground where the wind comes straight across.

Forty-year-old weatherstrippingWeatherstripping flattens and cracks over the decades, and on a 1980s window it is often long gone. If you can feel air moving at the window on a cold day, that is usually why.

Common questions

DeForest Window Replacement FAQ

Do you serve DeForest, WI?

Yes. DeForest is about 12 miles north of our shop, straight up the interstate, and part of our regular service area. We also serve Windsor.

My house is from the 1980s. Are the windows past their life?

Often, yes. Forty-year-old windows commonly have failed seals, worn weatherstripping and balances that no longer hold the sash. If yours show any of that, a quote is worth getting.

Can a slider replace my old crank windows?

It can, as long as the opening suits it. Sliders work best in openings wider than they are tall. For tall, narrow openings a casement or double-hung is usually better. Send photos and we will recommend the right style for each window.

What happens after I send photos?

We email you a quote, usually within one business day. If you go ahead, we measure every opening in person, order the windows built to those measurements, and schedule the install with our own crew.
