AfterFast, Reliable Windows & Doors Across Leander
Window and door replacement in Leander typically runs $4,500-$15,000 for full-home projects, depending on how many openings you have and the glass package you choose. Impact-rated windows land higher, usually $8,000-$25,000, because they’re built to take a hit and keep standing. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, owner-operated since 1998, and we serve homes from Crystal Falls to Travisso to Reagan’s Overlook. If you’re weighing your options and want straight numbers before you commit, call (877) 610-1318 and Tom or one of his sons will walk through it with you.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Leander’s Preferred Windows & Doors Company
Leander isn’t a market we stumbled into. We’ve watched this city grow from a quiet railroad town into one of the fastest-growing communities in Texas, and we know what that means for your windows and doors. Most of the homes out here were framed after 2005, and a lot of the original builder-grade windows in those subdivisions are hitting the end of their useful life right now. Cracked seals, fogged glass, frames that stick in August heat. We see it weekly in 78641, 78645, and 78646.
Tom Barrett’s name is on every contract, and his sons run the crews. When you call, a live person answers, not an out-of-state call center. Every scope of work lands in writing. Every price change comes as a written change order before anything happens. And every job carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, one call brings Tom back to make it right.
We’re not the cheapest bid in Leander, and we won’t pretend to be. We’re the bid where the allowance is on paper, the permit gets pulled, and the inspector signs off before we call it done.
Our Windows & Doors Services in Leander
Window Installation
Whether you’re building new out near the western edge of Leander or replacing originals in an older Crystal Falls home, we install windows that fit the Hill Country’s demands. Tight seals matter here. Summers sit above 100°F for weeks, and a sloppy install shows up on your July electric bill. We pull permits on every eligible job and get the inspection signed.
Door Installation
Front doors in Leander take a beating from western sun exposure. Fiberglass holds its shape better than wood out here, and we’ll tell you that honestly even if wood costs more. We install entry doors, storm doors, and interior doors, and we make sure the threshold is sealed properly so February cold snaps don’t find a gap.
Window Replacement
If your current windows are leaking air or the seals are fogged, full replacement usually beats repair. In Leander, our Kitchen Remodeling in Leander isn’t all we do - window replacement runs $4,500-$15,000 depending on size and glass package. We’ll give you a written line-item quote before you sign, so you know exactly where the money goes. No allowances hidden off to the side.
Impact Windows & Doors
Leander isn’t on the coast, but impact-rated glass still earns its keep. Hail is a reality in Central Texas, and impact windows hold up better when a storm rolls through. If you’re in a newer Travisso or Larkspur build and want the added protection, impact window installation runs $8,000-$25,000 for a typical home. We’ll walk you through the difference between impact-rated and standard, in plain English, with numbers.

Trusted Brands We Service in Leander
We install and service windows and doors from brands you can look up and verify: Andersen and Marvin on windows, and GAF roofing materials where tie-ins matter. We don’t stock mystery brands off a van. For Leander customers, that means faster turnaround on service calls and parts that aren’t waiting on a freight truck from out of state. If you’re comparing bids, ask the other guy what brand he’s proposing and whether he’ll put it in writing. We do both.
Common Windows & Doors Problems We See in Leander Homes
- Builder-grade seal failure in post-2005 homes. A lot of Leander’s housing stock went up fast during the growth boom, and original windows in those homes are now 10-15 years old. Fogged glass and condensation between panes are the big tells, and they only get worse.
- Warped or sticking doors from clay-to-limestone soil movement. Leander sits on Edwards Plateau limestone with variable clay pockets. Slab movement is common, and when the slab shifts, door frames go out of square. Doors that stick in summer or won’t latch in winter are usually a sign of movement, not bad carpentry.
- Heat gain from western exposure in 78641. Homes on the west side of Leander take direct afternoon sun. If your windows face the sunset and your living room bakes by 4 p.m., a low-E glass upgrade pays for itself faster out here than almost anywhere else in the metro.
- February 2021 freeze damage that never got addressed. That freeze exposed weak points in plumbing runs near exterior walls, but it also cracked vinyl window frames and warped thresholds. If you’ve been living with a drafty window since that week, it’s not going to fix itself.
