Window Replacement in Yelm
For replacement windows, new window openings and sill repair in Yelm, you deal with Greg directly — no salesman, no middleman. He's based in Rainier, about 7 miles away, with 33 years of experience.
Out here on the South Sound prairies a lot of the work is on acreage — barns, shops, barndominiums and new homes on open ground, where the gravelly soil drains well but the wind comes across with nothing to stop it. New windows fix the comfort and the look, but only when they are installed right, because a poorly flashed window is just a new way for water to get into the wall.
One customer called Greg “a man of integrity.” Another wrote that he “does excellent work.”

Window Replacement we do in Yelm
- 01
Replacement windows
Energy-efficient double- or triple-pane windows to replace old single-pane and failing double-pane units, in vinyl, fiberglass, wood or clad wood.
- 02
Full-frame replacement
Removing the old window down to the framing when the frame or sill is rotted, so the new one is flashed into the wall correctly.
- 03
Insert windows
Fitting a new window inside a sound existing frame when the trim and siding can stay, for a quicker job with less disruption.
- 04

Cutting in new windows, widening openings and adding headers so a dark room or a good view gets more glass.
- 05
Patio and exterior doors
Sliding, French and entry doors replaced and flashed with the same care as the windows.
- 06
Sill, trim and rot repair
Repairing rotted sills, jambs and framing around old windows, and finishing new trim inside and out.
Thurston County, WA
Window Replacement around Yelm
Greg works all over Yelm — near Hammersmith Hill and Solberg Lake — and throughout Thurston County.
Yelm sits on the prairie along the Nisqually River in south Thurston County, with Mount Rainier filling the view to the east. Yelm is about 7 miles north of our base in Rainier, well inside our 100-mile service area.
Western Washington buildings fight water more than anything — months of rain, moss on the roof, rot wherever wood stays wet, and soils that hold moisture. A building lasts when it sits on a proper foundation with drainage around it, is wrapped and flashed right, and is built to dry out.

How it works
How your Yelm window job works
- 1
Free on-site estimate
Greg looks at every window, checks frames and sills for rot, talks through styles and what you want to fix, and gives you a free estimate.
- 2
Measure and order
We measure each opening and order the windows, which is usually the longest wait, so your house stays closed up until they arrive.
- 3
Remove and install
Old windows come out a few at a time, any rot is repaired, and new windows are set, flashed and sealed with each opening closed up the same day.
- 4
Trim, cleanup and walkthrough
Trim is finished inside and out, debris is hauled off, and we check with you that every window opens, closes and locks.

Questions
Window Replacement in Yelm: FAQs
Do you do window replacement in Yelm, WA?
Yes. Yelm is about 7 miles north of our base in Rainier, well inside our 100-mile service area. Greg handles replacement windows, new window openings and sill repair there, and the estimate is free.
Do I need a permit for window replacement in Yelm?
It depends on the project. When one is needed, Greg pulls the permit from the City of Yelm's building department and builds to whatever the permit and inspection require.
Do you do window repair?
Yes, for the carpentry side: rotted sills and jambs, damaged trim, and leaks caused by failed flashing or caulk. When a window's glass seal has failed or the frame is too far gone, replacing the window usually gives you the better result.
Can you add a window or make one bigger?
Yes. Adding or enlarging a window means cutting the wall, installing a header sized for the new opening, and patching siding and interior finishes, all of which Greg does in-house. A permit is needed when the structure changes, and we handle that too.
How much does window replacement cost?
It depends on how many windows you are replacing, their sizes, the frame material and glass, and whether they go in as inserts or full-frame replacements. Rotted sills, unusual sizes and second-story access add work. Greg gives a free on-site estimate with every window counted.
Why do my windows drip with condensation every winter?
Cold glass meets damp indoor air. Single-pane and failing double-pane windows get cold enough for moisture to condense on them, and a long Western Washington winter keeps indoor humidity high. Better-insulated glass helps a great deal, and so do bathroom and kitchen fans that actually vent outside.
