Old or damaged windows can drain energy, lower curb appeal, and invite moisture into your living space. CountBricks combines construction know-how with real-time AI estimating to make window replacement Providence RI homeowners’ simplest upgrade—delivered on schedule and on budget.
New England’s coastal climate puts historic clapboard Colonials next to modern infills, all battling:
• Nor’easter winds that demand high DP-rated frames
• Freeze-thaw cycles that loosen aging sash joints
• Strict preservation guidelines in landmark districts
