New windows and doors improve comfort, cut energy bills and add long-term value to your home. Westlight Windows Austin pairs proven product lines with our own installing crews for lasting performance - and a price we put in writing.
1. Choose your installer
The unit is half the job - the install is the other half. Our own background-checked crews measure, set, seal and insulate every opening, and they know the lines we quote inside and out because they install them every week.
2. Select the right products
Compare styles, materials and glass packages side by side until the fit is right for your rooms, your budget and your goals. The product-line comparison below is the place to start.
3. Prepare your home for install
Before install day we walk you through a short checklist - furniture pulled back, treatments down, a clear path to each opening - so install day is watch-it-happen, not scramble.

Windows & Doors Before & After in Austin, TX
Photographs outrank adjectives. A window can be described as “efficient” or “quiet” until the copy runs out, but a photo of a fogged, failed double-pane sitting next to a clear new unit tells the whole story in half a second. The projects below represent the kind of work we do around Austin every week: rot repair, glass replacement, energy upgrades, and door swaps where the difference is visible from the curb.
Recent Transformations
Failed Double-Pane Replacement in Hyde Park
The problem: a 1990s double-pane had lost its seal, leaving a permanent fog between the panes that no amount of cleaning could touch. The homeowner could not see the pecan tree eight feet from the glass. What we did: removed the old sash, replaced it with a low-e insulated unit matched to the existing frame dimensions, and re-trimmed the interior to hide the original caulk line. The result: a clear view again and a hall that no longer leaks conditioned air through the gap where the old seal had died.
Full-Frame Window Replacement in Allandale
A 1963 ranch in Allandale came to us with original single-pane steel casement windows. The frames were sound, but every window rattled in the wind and the July cooling bill made the homeowner flinch. We pulled the entire unit, frame and all, down to the rough opening. Then we installed new ECO Window Systems double-hungs with low-e glass (a thin coating that reflects heat back into the room in winter and out in summer). The difference in street noise on Burnet Road was immediate, and the homeowner called the next week to say she could finally hear the birds in her backyard over the traffic.
Rot Repair and Window Replacement in Tarrytown
In Tarrytown, what started as a window replacement became a framing job. The bottom six inches of the window sill had rotted away from years of sprinkler spray hitting the same spot, and the homeowner had no idea until we pulled the old window. We cut back the rotted section, treated the remaining wood, and rebuilt the sill with pressure-treated stock before setting the new window. It is the kind of discovery that changes a quote if the contractor wants to change it. Ours did not change. The Kingswell Guarantee means the written price you get before we start is the price you pay when we leave.
Entry Door Replacement in Mueller
The front door in this Mueller home had warped enough that daylight showed through the top corner in winter. The homeowner could lock the deadbolt but could still feel air moving around the perimeter. We installed a new Therma-Tru fiberglass entry door with a full replacement frame, new weatherstripping, and an adjustable threshold. The door now closes with a single push instead of a shoulder shove, and the foyer holds its temperature for the first time since the house was built. Entry doors are one of the fastest ways to fix both curb appeal and comfort at the same time.
Impact-Rated Window Upgrade in Steiner Ranch
The homeowners in Steiner Ranch wanted better wind resistance without making the house look like a fortress. We installed PGT impact-rated windows throughout the back elevation, the side that catches the strongest gusts off the hill country. The units look nearly identical to standard windows from the inside, but the laminated glass is designed to take a serious hit without shattering. We also matched the interior trim profile to the original so the rooms look like nothing changed at all. That is the point of a good window job: the house looks the same, just better.
ViewLux Sliding Glass Door Replacement in Barton Hills
The original aluminum slider in this Barton Hills home was so hard to open that the family had stopped using their own deck. The rollers were shot, the track was warped, and the frame had pulled away from the house in one corner. We replaced it with a ViewLux vinyl sliding glass door, new header flashing, and a fresh interior trim package. Now the door glides open with two fingers, and the family eats dinner outside three nights a week. A door you can actually open changes how you live in a house.
