Casement Windows in Augusta, GA

Window replacement with casement windows is one of the most popular upgrades Augusta homeowners choose when they want better ventilation, a cleaner sightline, and a tighter seal than a standard double hung can provide. At Augusta Window Pros, we install casement windows across Augusta and the wider CSRA — measuring precisely, fitting cleanly, and finishing every installation with interior and exterior trim that looks like it was always there.

What Makes Casement Windows Different

Casement windows are hinged on one side and swing outward on a crank mechanism, opening fully from top to bottom. That full opening is what sets them apart — where a double hung window opens only halfway at best, a casement window exposes the entire frame to the breeze. For Augusta’s warm, humid summers, that difference in ventilation is significant.

The other major advantage is the seal. When a casement window closes, the sash presses directly against the frame on all four sides — a compression fit that is inherently more airtight than the sliding contact of a double hung. Combined with modern Low-E glass and argon fill, casement windows deliver some of the lowest air infiltration rates available in residential replacement windows.

Casement Window Styles for Augusta Homes

Casement windows suit a wide range of Augusta home styles — from the older craftsman bungalows in Summerville and Olde Town to the newer construction in Evans and Grovetown. They work particularly well in kitchens above countertops where you want ventilation without a window that slides up and down, and in living rooms where an unobstructed view matters.

We install casement windows in standard single-pane widths and in wider two-lite configurations, with white, tan, bronze, and custom colour frame options. All units are available with Low-E coating and argon gas fill as standard — both of which are especially valuable in Augusta’s climate where summer solar gain is a major driver of cooling costs.

Our Installation Process

  1. Measure and assess: We measure every opening and check the existing frame condition before ordering. Casement windows require precise sizing — a unit that is even a quarter inch off will not seal correctly.
  2. Remove the existing window: We remove the old unit cleanly, preserving the surrounding trim where possible and clearing any old sealant or failed weatherstripping.
  3. Fit and level: The new casement unit is set into the opening, shimmed level on all four sides, and secured to the rough framing. We check the crank operation and sash alignment before moving to the next step.
  4. Insulate and seal: The gap between the frame and rough opening is filled with low-expansion foam, and exterior caulk is applied to complete the weather seal.
  5. Trim and finish: Interior and exterior trim is reinstalled or replaced, and the installation is inspected for smooth operation and clean finish.

Casement Window Pricing in Augusta

Casement windows typically run $450 to $950 per window installed in the Augusta area, depending on frame size, glass package, and frame colour. Wider two-lite configurations and custom colours sit at the higher end of that range. As with all our window replacements, we provide a written estimate before any work begins — no surprises on installation day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are casement windows harder to maintain than double hung windows?

No — modern casement windows are straightforward to maintain. The crank mechanism is the main moving part and rarely requires attention. Cleaning is easy because the sash swings fully outward, giving you access to both sides of the glass from inside the home.

Can casement windows be installed where I currently have double hung windows?

Yes, in most cases. As long as the rough opening dimensions are compatible, casement windows can replace double hung units without structural changes. We confirm this during the estimate.

Do casement windows meet energy efficiency standards?

Our casement windows are available with ENERGY STAR rated glass packages. The National Fenestration Rating Council independently rates every window’s U-factor and solar heat gain coefficient — we can show you the NFRC label for any unit we quote.

How long does casement window installation take?

A single casement window replacement takes approximately 45–60 minutes. A full room of three or four windows is typically done in a half day. We work cleanly and leave no open openings at the end of the day.
