Whole-Home NT Windows Vinyl Replacement Completed in One Day | Custom Frame Extenders and Scaffolding for Stucco Openings
This Austin project swapped out aging windows for NT Windows vinyl replacement units in one day. We chose vinyl because it holds up to 100-degree summers without warping or fading. The stucco walls needed custom frame extenders, and we brought in scaffolding to reach a tall entry window. The home now seals better, blocks more heat, and keeps cedar pollen out.

The homeowner first reached us in April 2023 through a family and friend referral passed along by our office staff. That early conversation covered the aging windows and the goal of a cooler, tighter home.
By July 2023 the project moved into our prospect stage. We looked closely at the stucco walls and each window opening, noting that the deeper stucco framing would need custom extenders and that one high entry window would require scaffolding.
The homeowner approved the project on March 3, 2025. We finalized the NT Windows vinyl selection, confirmed measurements for every opening, and scheduled the single-day install.
On April 16, 2025, our crew completed the full replacement in one day. They removed the old units, set frame extenders into the stucco openings, staged scaffolding for the tall entry window, and installed and sealed the new vinyl frames.
The job was invoiced and completed the same day, April 16, then closed on May 1, 2025. The home now seals tighter against Austin's heat and cedar pollen, with the old windows hauled off and the site left clean.
We replaced every window on a home in Austin's Balcones Woods neighborhood with NT Windows vinyl replacement units, finishing the full install in a single day on April 16, 2025. The home now blocks more summer heat and seals far tighter than before.
The home sits in a neighborhood full of houses built in the 1980s and 1990s. Windows from that era lose their seal over time, and this home showed the signs. Drafts, higher cooling bills, and glass that let too much heat through.
We picked NT Windows vinyl replacements for a few solid reasons, and heat was the biggest one. Austin summers push past 100 degrees for weeks at a time, and cheaper window frames can warp or bow under that kind of load. Vinyl stays stable, resists fading, and never needs repainting. NT Windows also builds these units in Texas, so the glass and frames are designed for our climate rather than a milder one up north. That local build quality is a real edge when you deal with our heat, hail, and heavy cedar pollen seasons.
The home has stucco exterior walls, which changes how windows get set. Stucco openings are often deeper than standard framing, so the new units needed frame extenders to fill the gap and sit flush. Skip that step and you get sloppy trim lines, air leaks, and water intrusion down the road. Our crew measured each opening and cut the extenders to match, so every window seals clean against the stucco. One entry window sat high on the wall, out of reach from a standard ladder. We set up company scaffolding to reach it safely and keep the install square.
The full replacement wrapped in one day, start to finish, on April 16. Our crew pulled the old units, prepped each opening, set the extenders, and installed the new NT Windows frames.
The home feels cooler and quieter, and the new seals cut the drafts the older windows let through. The homeowner gets lower heat gain through the glass and an easier time during high-pollen months. If you're weighing other exterior upgrades, our siding and exterior painting crews often pair with window jobs on stucco homes like this one.
This whole-home job finished in one day. Timeline depends on window count and wall type, but vinyl replacements in stucco move quickly once the extenders are cut to fit.
Vinyl frames stay stable through long stretches of 100-degree heat and never need repainting. That makes them a low-maintenance match for our climate compared to frames that warp or fade.
This full replacement fell in the $25,000 to $30,000 range. Final pricing depends on window count, glass package, and extras like the frame extenders and scaffolding this home needed.
NT Windows backs their vinyl units with a manufacturer warranty, and our install work is covered too. Reach out to Austin Pro if anything needs a look after the job closes.
