Window Solutions for Racine Homes

Designed for Lake Michigan's Weather Challenges

Your Racine home deserves windows that can handle everything Wisconsin throws at them. From freezing winter winds blowing off Lake Michigan to summer humidity and everything in between, our windows are built specifically with southeastern Wisconsin conditions in mind.

Racine homeowners tell us they choose our windows because they need products that work as hard as they do. Whether you’re in an older home in the West Racine neighborhood or a newer build in Mount Pleasant, we bring the same attention to detail to every installation.

Racine Window Regulations & Common Challenges

Racine follows Wisconsin state building codes with some specific local requirements:

  • Permits Required: Most window replacements in Racine require building permits from the City’s Building Department, especially when changing window size or location.
  • Egress Window Standards: Bedrooms and basements require properly sized emergency escape (egress) windows. Wisconsin recently updated these requirements to include proper drainage systems connected to the foundation.
  • Energy Efficiency Standards: Racine’s climate zone requires windows with specific U-factor and Solar Heat Gain Coefficient ratings to meet Wisconsin energy codes.
  • Historic District Considerations: If your home is in one of Racine’s historic districts, window replacements may require additional approval from the Planning, Heritage, and Design Commission.

We handle the entire process from measurement to installation and cleanup, typically completing most projects in just one day.
