Masons Island Window Company

We Know Connecticut Coastal Properties

We’ve handled window installations across Connecticut for years. We understand what coastal weather does to windows and what it takes to make them last.

Salt air corrodes cheap hardware. Temperature swings crack poor seals. Wind-driven rain finds every gap in sloppy installation. We’ve seen it all, and we know how to prevent it.

You’re not getting a crew that learned window installation from YouTube videos. Our installers know the difference between doing it fast and doing it right.

Window Installation Process

Measure Twice, Install Once, Done Right

We start with precise measurements because old houses rarely have standard openings. Your windows get manufactured to fit your specific frames, not forced into spaces where they don’t belong.

Installation day means protecting your home while we work. Drop cloths, careful removal of old windows, and cleanup that leaves your space better than we found it.

Every window gets properly sealed, insulated, and tested before we consider the job done. You’ll see the difference immediately when you feel for drafts that aren’t there anymore.

New Windows and Installation

What You Get With Every Installation

Energy-efficient windows designed for New England weather. Double or triple-pane glass that actually insulates. Frames that won’t warp, rot, or need constant maintenance.

Professional installation includes proper flashing, weatherproofing, and insulation around every frame. No shortcuts that come back to haunt you when the next storm hits.

Coastal properties need hardware that handles salt air without corroding. Your new windows come with components built to last in marine environments, not cheap parts that fail after two seasons.

How long does window installation take for an average home?

Most homes take 1-2 days depending on the number of windows and any complications we find. We replace 8-12 windows per day when everything goes smoothly. Older homes sometimes surprise us with structural issues that add time, but we’ll know after the first few windows if we’re looking at delays. We don’t rush installations to meet arbitrary deadlines because sloppy work creates problems that cost you more later.

What's the difference between vinyl and wood windows for coastal areas?

Vinyl handles salt air better because it doesn’t absorb moisture or need regular painting. Wood looks great but requires maintenance every few years to prevent rot and warping. In coastal Connecticut, vinyl typically lasts longer with less upkeep. Wood makes sense if you’re restoring a historic property or want a specific aesthetic, but you’ll pay more upfront and spend more on maintenance. Both can be energy efficient when properly installed.

Do new windows really make a noticeable difference in energy bills?

Yes, if your current windows are old or poorly installed. Replacing single-pane windows or drafty double-panes typically cuts heating and cooling costs by 15-25%. The bigger savings come from eliminating air leaks around frames, not just upgrading glass. If your windows are already decent quality and properly sealed, the savings will be smaller. We can assess your current windows and give you realistic expectations based on what we find.

Can you install windows in winter or do we need to wait?

We install windows year-round unless weather is genuinely dangerous. Winter installations take more preparation to keep your home comfortable while windows are out, but it’s completely doable. We use temporary coverings and work quickly to minimize heat loss. Many homeowners prefer winter installation because they immediately feel the improvement when heating season is in full swing. Summer installations are easier but you won’t notice energy savings until heating or cooling season starts.

What happens if you find problems with the framing during installation?

We stop and discuss options before proceeding. Common issues include rotted sills, out-of-square openings, or structural problems that affect installation. Minor framing repairs are usually quick fixes we can handle the same day. Major structural issues might require a carpenter or delay while we order custom-sized windows. We’ll give you costs upfront and let you decide how to proceed. No surprises on your final bill for work we didn’t discuss first.

How do I know if my windows need replacement or just repair?

Replace them if you have single-pane glass, visible rot in wooden frames, or condensation between double-pane glass. Also replace if they’re hard to open, don’t lock properly, or let in noticeable drafts around the frame. Repair makes sense for minor issues like broken sash cords or weatherstripping on otherwise solid windows. If you’re spending money on heating and cooling because your windows don’t seal, replacement usually pays for itself in energy savings within a few years.
