What We Did
Energy-Efficient NT Windows EXEC Vinyl Replacement · Full Siding Installation with Sherwin Williams Paint Finish
Windows
This Allandale home got a full window replacement using NT Windows' NT EXEC series. We removed and disposed of the old windows, then installed the new ones across multiple days on site. NT EXEC replacement windows hold up well to Austin heat and hard sun exposure. Homeowners in Austin, TX see steadier indoor temps and less draft after a swap like this.

We installed James Hardie 8.25-inch Prime Smooth fiber cement siding on this Allandale home. The work spanned multiple days on site, with painting done after the boards went up. Fiber cement resists Austin's heat, hail, and moisture far better than old wood or hardboard. Siding in Austin, TX benefits from this durability, giving the home a clean, low-upkeep exterior.

This home received three new Pella doors, set in place by our crew in early June. The scope covered a standard front or back entry door plus additional units. Pella doors offer solid weather sealing, which matters for Austin's heat and sudden storms. Door installation in Austin, TX like this improves both curb appeal and everyday comfort.

How It Went
The Journey
From the first phone call to the final walkthrough — what actually happened on this project.
First contact
The homeowner found us through an internet search and reached out in late December 2023. We talked through the aging windows first, then the bigger picture of doors and siding. That early conversation set up a phased plan around their renovation timeline.
Evaluation
Our inspection confirmed the windows were past their service life, with failing seals typical of older Allandale homes. We measured each opening and mapped the three door swaps. We also scoped the siding phase during the same visit so nothing got missed.
Planning & approval
March 20, 2024We built estimates covering windows, doors, siding, and paint, then finalized selections including the NT Windows EXEC line. The project was approved on March 20, 2024. We set the schedule to work around the client's renovation plans.
Installation
Windows arrived at our warehouse and went in over several days. The three doors followed in early June. Siding came last, installed over multiple days in late October and finished with a full paint pass.
Completion
January 2, 2025We walked the finished exterior with the homeowner and confirmed clean seals, square frames, and a solid paint finish. The job was completed on January 2, 2025, and closed out by January 20, 2025. The home now stands sealed against heat, hail, and pollen.

The Full Story
Inside This Project
Why did this Allandale home need new windows?
Allandale is full of homes built decades back, and the original windows here had lost their edge. Old seals let heat pour in during the worst of summer. Swapping them out was the fastest way to cut that heat load.
- Old units removed and hauled off
- Multi-day install to keep each opening square and sealed
- Vinyl frames picked over aluminum for heat performance
What did we find when we inspected the home?
The walkthrough showed windows well past their service life, which is common on this stretch of Shoalwood Avenue. Aging frames in Austin homes tend to fail at the seals first, and that lets conditioned air escape all summer. We also mapped out the door swaps and the coming siding phase during that same visit. The homeowner had a renovation schedule to work around, so we built the timeline to match it. That planning is why the siding waited until fall instead of crowding the window work.
What materials did we use, and why?
We went with the NT Windows EXEC line because vinyl handles Central Texas heat better than most frames. Vinyl does not conduct heat the way metal does, so the frames stay stable when it hits triple digits. That stability keeps the seals intact and the glass working as it should. It's the detail most homeowners overlook when they shop on price alone.
- Three doors ordered alongside the windows
- Doors installed in early June after the window phase
- EXEC vinyl chosen for seal life and warp resistance
How did the siding install go?
The siding work landed in late October, timed to the client's renovation plans. Our crew installed the boards over several days, then followed with a full paint pass. Working in fall meant cooler days and better paint cure than a July install would allow.
- Materials sourced through ABC Supply, Lansing Building Products, and local yards
- Siding installed over multiple days, then painted
- Sherwin Williams products used for the finish coat
What were the results?
The home now has a tight, weather-ready exterior from top to bottom. New windows hold their seals, the doors close clean, and the fresh siding sheds hail and wind-driven rain. Cedar pollen season is easier to manage with a sealed shell, too.
- Full window replacement completed
- Three-door upgrade finished in June
- Siding and paint wrapped by late fall
Straight Answers
Questions About This Project
Why does vinyl work well for windows in Austin?
Vinyl frames don't warp or lose their seals under repeated 100-degree heat. That keeps your cooling steady and your energy bills lower through the long Central Texas summer.
Why was the siding installed months after the windows?
The homeowner had a renovation schedule to work around. We pushed the siding to late October so it followed their timeline and got a cooler-weather paint cure.
What did this project cost?
The full scope, covering windows, three doors, siding, and paint, fell in the $40k to $50k range. Final pricing depends on window count, door type, and siding area.
Do the new windows come with support after install?
Yes. NT Windows backs the EXEC line, and we handle any follow-up on the install itself. Reach out to Austin Pro if anything needs attention.
