01
A new window can bring light into a room. A wider doorway can change the connection between spaces. These projects involve the opening itself as well as the product installed in it.
New and enlarged openings are a particular focus for Ed. With structural remodeling and window and door installation handled by Duval Construction, you can discuss the complete change with the same builder.
Where engineering is needed, Ed works with an engineer and coordinates engineering and permits for the project.
02
If your existing openings are staying in place, Duval Construction can replace the windows or doors within them. Discuss the appearance, operation and other priorities you want the update to address.
A replacement project can stand on its own or form part of a whole-home renovation. Tell Ed how the work fits into your broader plans before making product selections.
03
Duval Construction can install impact-rated products. Talk with Ed about the options for your project, the existing or proposed openings and the product specifications involved.
The choice of product should be considered alongside the property and installation scope. Specific brands and models can be discussed during project planning.

Planning guide
How to describe the openings you want changed, what to ask about impact-rated products and how to compare estimates.
01
A replacement generally starts with an existing window or doorway that will remain in the same location. A new or enlarged opening changes the wall arrangement as well as the unit installed in it. That difference is useful to establish before comparing products or estimates.
When you contact Ed, describe which type of work you want. If you are unsure, explain the intended result: more light, a wider entrance, a different connection to an outdoor area or an update to existing units. Photographs and approximate measurements can help communicate the idea without replacing a project-specific assessment.
Ed particularly welcomes new and enlarged opening projects. Duval Construction's structural remodeling capabilities allow the construction behind the opening to be discussed alongside the window or door itself.
02
A window or door affects the interior room and the outside of the home. Consider how the proposed change relates to furniture, movement through the space and the appearance of the exterior. A product may appeal to you in isolation but need to be considered differently in your particular wall or room.
Take photographs from inside and outside where possible. Note whether the surrounding area is also being remodeled and which finishes you want to keep. This gives Ed a more complete description of the work than a close-up photograph of the existing unit alone.
If you have already selected a product, share the available specifications. If you have not, describe your priorities so product selection can be considered with the opening and construction scope.
03
Duval Construction can install impact-rated windows and doors. If that is your priority, say so at the beginning of the inquiry. Specific products, ratings and installation details need to be discussed for the proposed project rather than assumed from the general service description.
An impact-rated product is a particular product selection, not a promise that every window or door offered has the same specification. Ask about the unit being proposed, its documentation and how it fits the planned opening. Ed can discuss the installation in the context of the property.
Discuss product specifications and availability with Ed before making your final selection. If you have a preferred brand or an existing product quote, include that information so Ed can consider it with the work you want completed.
04
A window or door project can affect how a renovated room is arranged. A wider opening may change the available wall space. A different entrance can influence the route between rooms. These decisions belong in the same conversation as the layout if they are part of a larger remodel.
Duval Construction also handles whole-home renovations and additions. Share the connected work rather than describing the window or door as a completely separate project. That helps establish which structural changes and surrounding finishes need to be considered together.
05
When comparing estimates, look at the work as well as the product. Installing a replacement in an existing opening is different from creating a new opening, making structural changes and addressing the surrounding finishes. The same number of units does not necessarily mean the same construction scope.
Ask which openings are included, what changes are proposed and what related work is part of the estimate. Identify selections that are still open. A useful comparison reflects the installation you actually want rather than just the headline price of a window or door.
