Windows Installation

Stucco windows
installed permanently.

Most contractors cut through stucco and patch it badly. Within one Utah winter you have water in your walls. Dallas has been opening stucco walls for windows for 40 years. The result is permanently weather-tight installations that look like the windows were always there.

The Stucco Window Process

40 years opening
stucco walls.

The reason most window contractors leave visible patches in stucco is they don't understand the stucco system they're cutting into. Dallas is a 40-year stucco master who installs windows. That combination doesn't exist anywhere else in Utah.

The 6-Inch Rule
When opening stucco for a window Dallas never exceeds 6 inches beyond the rough opening. Beyond 6 inches the patch becomes visible no matter how well it's color matched. Every opening is scored, cut, and closed with surgical precision. The patch disappears into the wall.
What Happens When Contractors Get It Wrong
Stucco cut too wide. Felt paper torn. No flashing. Foam backer rod stuffed in the gap. Patch painted over. Within one Utah winter — freeze-thaw drives water through that gap. The sheathing starts rotting. Dallas has rebuilt hundreds of failed window installations. He does not create them.
The Correct 6-Step Process
1
Score the perimeter
Grinder with diamond blade scores the stucco at the exact opening size. Clean cut. No cracking into adjacent wall.
2
Remove stucco — expose felt paper
Stucco chiseled carefully back to the felt paper. The felt paper must not be torn — it is the moisture barrier.
3
Fold back felt paper intact
Felt paper folded back without tearing. This is the most critical step. A torn felt paper means moisture gets behind the wall system.
4
Install window with full flashing
Self-adhesive flashing tape at sill. Window set and shimmed. Head flashing installed. All penetrations sealed. No shortcuts.
5
Re-integrate felt paper
Felt paper lapped correctly over the flashing. Moisture path directed away from the wall — not into it.
6
Close with color-matched stucco
Multi-layer stucco patch applied. Texture matched. Color custom-blended to match existing weathered stucco. Invisible when done correctly.
Window Styles Available

Every style.
One installer.

Dallas installs every window style in every brand he carries. The stucco integration process is identical regardless of window style — surgical, moisture-tight, and invisible when done correctly.

📐

Bay and Bow Windows

Project outward from the wall. Create interior space and dramatic exterior profile. Require precise stucco integration at all three angles.

Sliding Glass Doors

Custom Shapes

Arched, circular, triangular, and specialty shapes. Available in most brands. Stucco integration on custom shapes requires extra precision — Dallas's specialty.

Energy Performance in Utah

Utah's climate
demands more.

Utah sits in Climate Zone 5 and 6 — cold winters, hot summers, high altitude UV. The windows that perform best here are not the same ones that perform best in Phoenix or Seattle. Dallas knows Utah's climate requirements and specifies windows accordingly.

  • ◆
    Low-E glass coating — reflects infrared heat in summer, retains it in winter. Essential for Utah's temperature swings.
  • ◆
    Argon gas fill — between panes for superior insulation. Argon conducts heat less than air — lower U-factor.
  • ◆
    Triple pane option — for extreme Utah mountain climates. Park City, Heber City, and Jackson Hole homes benefit most.
  • ◆
    Warm edge spacers — reduce condensation at glass edges in cold Utah winters. Eliminates the frost line at window perimeters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Windows in stucco
answered.

The questions Utah homeowners ask before replacing windows in a stucco home.

How much does window replacement cost in a stucco home?
Window replacement in a stucco home runs $800 to $2,500 per window installed including the stucco repair around each opening. The stucco work adds cost compared to a siding home but is critical to moisture protection. Dallas provides a written itemized estimate — call (801) 518-5030.
Will I see a patch around my new windows?
Not if Dallas does the work. His 6-inch rule limits the opening to what can be closed invisibly. He custom blends the Senergy finish coat to match your existing weathered stucco — not just the original color formula. The patch becomes invisible. Contractors who leave visible patches exceeded the 6-inch rule or did not color match correctly.
Can I get new windows without replacing all my stucco?
Yes — window replacement is completely independent of stucco resurfacing. Dallas installs new windows in existing stucco, closes each opening invisibly, and color matches to the existing wall. If you want to resurface the entire house at the same time that is available as a combined project under one contract.
How long does window replacement take in a stucco home?
A typical full house window replacement on a stucco home takes 3 to 5 days for the installation plus 2 to 3 days for the stucco work around each opening to cure properly. Dallas does not rush the stucco cure. Total project typically 1 to 2 weeks depending on number of windows and home size.
What warranty comes with window installation?
Two warranties apply. The window manufacturer warranty — Milgard's Full Lifetime Warranty, Pella's limited warranty, or equivalent depending on brand chosen. Plus Dallas's 1-year workmanship warranty on the stucco integration, flashing, and installation work he performs. Both warranties are provided in writing before work starts.
