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.

Window Company in Bastrop, TX
Westlight Windows & Doors is a window company serving Bastrop, TX, and we’re the ones homeowners call when a west-facing window along Highway 71 gives out. Bastrop’s mix of historic 19th-century brick storefronts, 1970s river ranches, and post-2000 tract homes means almost every house has a different window story – single-pane wood downtown, aluminum frames near the Colorado River, builder-grade vinyl in the newer subdivisions east of SH 95. The sun here is brutal on windows, and the humidity does not help. If you’re dealing with fogged glass, a crank window that will not close, or a front door that sticks every June, call us at (254) 322-3468 and we’ll give you a straight answer about what the job will cost.
Why Bastrop Homes Are Different
Bastrop is not one housing market. It’s three. Downtown, you’ll find 19th-century brick buildings with original single-pane wood sash windows – beautiful, drafty, and expensive to heat and cool. Along the Colorado River, the 1970s and 80s ranch homes often have aluminum-frame windows that sweat in winter and conduct heat in summer. Then east of SH 95, the subdivisions built after 2000 went in fast, and many of those homes got builder-grade vinyl that Texas UV tears apart in under a decade. We see failed seals on 15-year-old windows in The Colony and Tahitian Village that should have lasted twice that long.
There’s one pattern our technicians know to check for in Bastrop that we rarely see in Elgin or Smithville. West-facing windows along Highway 71 near the river take a double hit: direct afternoon sun plus reflected heat bouncing up off the water. That combination causes premature seal failure – fog between the panes – sometimes within six or seven years on a window rated for twenty. If your house sits anywhere along 71 with a clear line to the river, ask us about low-e glass (a thin coating that reflects heat back into the room in winter and out in summer) and impact-rated options. The wildfire risk in Bastrop County also pushes a lot of homeowners toward impact glass from PGT or CGI – it holds up better in wind and debris, and many HOAs east of 95 welcome it on new approvals.
Our Main Bastrop Services
Most Bastrop homeowners call us for two things: replacing windows that have failed in the heat, and installing new exterior doors that actually seal. Here’s what each service involves here.
Window Replacement in Bastrop
Older Bastrop homes with single-pane wood windows lose a surprising amount of money through the glass every summer. Replacement means pulling the old sash and frame, checking the opening for rot or settling, and installing a new window that fits the same rough opening – or reframing if the original was not square. We often recommend low-e and impact glass for west-facing or river-facing elevations. See Window Replacement in Bastrop for full pricing and what to expect on the day of the job.
Window Installation in Bastrop
New construction and additions in Bastrop need window installation from the rough opening, before drywall goes up. That’s a different process from replacement: flashing, sealing, and setting the window so water drains away from the structure, which matters in a climate where summer thunderstorms dump an inch of rain in twenty minutes. We install windows on new builds from downtown to the tract developments east of 95, and we coordinate with your builder or GC. Details at Window Installation in Bastrop.
Door Installation in Bastrop
The humidity here does specific things to exterior doors. Wood doors swell and stick in August, then shrink and rattle in January. A door that binds in the frame or lets daylight through the weatherstripping is doing real damage to your energy bill. We install front entry doors, back doors, and patio doors sized and set correctly for Bastrop’s particular moisture cycles. See Door Installation in Bastrop for what we carry and what it costs.

Two things push price up in Bastrop more than anything else. First, impact-rated glass – if you’re in a wildfire-adjacent zone east of 95 or along the river, that glass costs more but performs better under extreme heat and wind. Second, any rot or settling we find when the old window comes out. You’ll always get your written price before work starts. No revised invoices at the door – that’s a Kingswell Guarantee promise, and we have never broken it.

What Bastrop Customers Say
"Nice windows and a clean install. There was a small delay getting one of the windows from the manufacturer, so one opening was done a couple weeks after the rest. They communicated it though."
- Walt Prentiss"Two bedroom windows that never opened and one that wouldn't stay up. All replaced in an afternoon. The crew was clean, hauled off the old frames, and the quote held."
- Colette Rhee"Our energy bill in summer was brutal. New windows made a real dent in it. Salesman wasn't pushy and didn't do the fake "today only" discount thing the others tried."
- Bethany Oh
