Windows & Doors Before & After in Fort Worth, TX

A window swap changes how a room feels in about a day. A patio door swap changes how a family uses the back of the house. We could list off specs and brand names all afternoon, but the fastest way to know if our work is right for your home is to look at what we’ve done in Fort Worth. Here are a handful of the transformations we handle most weeks at Meridian Windows and Doors Fort Worth.

Recent Transformations

Single-Hung to Low-E Double-Hung in Fairmount

BeforeAfter

The original wood sash had swollen shut on the west side of the house, the side that takes direct afternoon sun all summer. That is a common Fort Worth problem: wood frames dry, then swell with spring humidity, and one day the window simply will not open. We pulled the old unit out, set a new double-hung from the Mr-Glass line, and the owner now gets a cross breeze through the living room for the first time in years. Low-E glass, which is a thin coating that reflects heat while letting light through, keeps the west sun from cooking the room in July.

Patio Door Swap After Storm Damage in Wedgwood

BeforeAfter

Hail hit this Wedgwood home hard enough to dent the aluminum frame and knock the slider off its track. The door still “worked” if you lifted and shoved, but the seal was gone and you could feel outside air standing next to it in winter. We replaced the whole unit with a Therma-Tru sliding patio door, set it into the existing rough opening, and re-flashed the threshold so water runs out instead of under. The family told us their utility bill dropped within two months.

Bow Window to Picture Window with Side Casements in Arlington Heights

BeforeAfter

An old bow window was the focal point of this living room, but the seals had failed between the panes and the interior glass was fogged with hard water stains. CWS built the replacement: a wide center picture window with casements on each side that crank open for airflow. The room immediately felt bigger because the new frame profile is thinner and the glass sightline is cleaner. No more fog, no more drafts around the old bay.

Tilt-In Double-Hung Replacement for a Second Story in Ridglea Hills

The second story of this Ridglea Hills home still had original aluminum windows, which is common for builds from the late 1970s. Aluminum conducts heat, and the windows had no thermal break. On a hundred degree day you could not put your hand on the inside frame. We installed ES Windows double-hungs with insulated frames and glass, which meant the upstairs bedrooms held temperature for the first time in decades. The tilt-in feature also means the owner can clean both sides of the glass from inside, which matters when you are on a ladder at the roofline in Fort Worth wind.

French Door to Sliding Patio Door in Tanglewood

The original swinging French door ate a six foot arc of floor space every time it opened, which is dead space in a smaller breakfast nook. The owner wanted the door opening kept the same width but wanted the swing gone. We spec’d a ViewLux sliding door, set it into the existing opening, and now the nook fits a small table and chairs that never could have lived there before. The new door required no structural work because the rough opening was already sized correctly.

Full-House Window Replacement in North Hi Mount After Foundation Repair

This North Hi Mount house shifted during the 2022 dry spell and the original builder-grade windows never squared back up. Several sashes bowed enough to leak air, and three windows would not lock. The owner had the foundation repaired first, then called us. We replaced every window in the house with PGT insulated units, shimmed each frame squarely to account for the new foundation line, and now every lock actually engages. This was a four day job with a written price locked before we ever put a tool to the first window.

Want Results Like These?

Every one of these jobs started with a phone call and ended with a written price before work began. If you have a window that won’t open, a door that fights you, or rooms that won’t hold temperature in Fort Worth, call Meridian Windows and Doors Fort Worth at (682) 708-0962. We’ll come look, measure, and hand you a number on paper. If we do the work and it is not done right, the 365-Day Done Right Promise covers it in writing.
