What is Fibrex, and how is it different from vinyl?

Fibrex is Andersen's composite — reclaimed wood fiber bound in polymer. It holds its shape in Texas heat better than vinyl, which softens and can bow on a wide west-facing opening, and it lets the frame be narrower for the same strength, so you get more glass and less frame.

How long does a whole-home window replacement take?

Most homes are done in one to two days once the custom windows arrive. Lead time on the windows themselves is typically a few weeks, because every unit is built to your openings.

Will new windows really lower my energy bills?

Customers regularly report noticeably lower summer cooling costs and a quieter house. Savings depend on what you're replacing — single-pane aluminum windows show the biggest change.

Do you handle the permit?

Yes. Where your city requires one, we file it and deal with the inspection.

Why choose a wood-interior window in a climate like ours?

The 400 Series is wood inside, vinyl-clad outside: you get a paintable or stainable interior that matches trim, with a weatherproof exterior that never needs painting. In DFW the cladding is doing the real work — the wood stays conditioned indoor air side.

What Two Texas Freezes Taught Us

Most of the damage from February 2021 and December 2022 was avoidable, and none of it was exotic. Here is what broke, in order of how often we saw it, and what to do before the first hard freeze.
