Retrofit vs. Full-Frame in Fountain Valley
Many Fountain Valley tract homes with sound frames are good candidates for retrofit (insert) replacement — faster and less invasive. Where frames are damaged, rotted, or out of square, full-frame replacement down to the rough opening delivers a weathertight result. We assess each opening during your free estimate.
