Window Replacement in Mill Valley
Window replacement in Mill Valley carries both a fire and a moisture dimension, and on architecturally significant hillside homes it's also a design decision. Window surrounds are an ignition path and a leak path here, and the only correct time to integrate openings into a hardened, drying-capable wall and preserve sightlines is during a re-side.
Windows in the hardened, drained, design-led envelope
On Mill Valley hillside homes, replacing units during the re-side lets us integrate openings into the non-combustible assembly, flash them to dry, and keep the architectural sightlines — closing the ember-vulnerable detail and the leak path while preserving the design.
Comfort and quiet on a wooded hillside
The gains here are comfort, efficiency, and noise rather than dramatic cooling savings in the mild microclimate — meaningful on these homes, and best realized when flashing and air-sealing are corrected during the re-side.
