Single Hung Windows
These windows have two sashes, but only the bottom one can move up and down. Our single hung windows are extremely energy efficient!
Double Hung Windows
Both sashes can move up and down in this type of window, providing better ventilation options. These windows are just as energy efficient as single hung windows.
Casement Windows
Hinged on one side, casement windows swing outward to open. They are operated with a crank or handle. Our casement windows offer easy operation for life so you get functionality for years to come!
Sliding Windows
Sliding windows consist of two sashes, one of which slides horizontally past the other to open. Our sliding windows also include easy slide operation.
Picture Windows
These are fixed windows that don’t open, typically used to provide unobstructed views and natural light. Picture windows are beautiful and open when they are new and clear, but can be an eyesore if they are broken or cracked!
Bay Windows and Bow Windows
Bay windows protrude from the exterior wall, creating a small alcove within the room. They often consist of a large central fixed window flanked by smaller windows on each side. Bow windows are similar to bay windows, but with a curved structure instead of angled corners. At Conservation Construction we can replace your bay or bow windows with ease!
Garden Windows
These project outward from the wall and usually have glass on all sides, providing a space for indoor plants or other decorative items. They are great to create your own little garden with!
