New Basement Windows
We are only the 2nd owners of this house, so a lot of the house was original to its 1960s building standards when we bought it. Including the single pane aluminum windows.
We’re modernizing as we remodel (including leaving the ceiling open to the joists) and that includes making this home more efficient and comfortable.
We’ve upgraded the lights. It was time for the old windows to go.
We’ve already replaced the window in the bathroom, so little by little all the windows are getting upgraded to double-pane vinyl windows.
There are a few different ways to install windows, and I’ve been DIYing long enough (and watching contractors close enough) to have the confidence to install my own windows.
These 2 windows are surrounded by the original concrete foundation, and I was installing while it was cold outside, so it was a little different install than others I’ve done.
Watch the video for more info about how I installed this basement window.
