Casement Windows in Dallas, TX

Casement Windows in Dallas, TX

Casement windows are hinged on one side and crank outward, sealing tight against the frame when closed. A well-installed casement window in Dallas typically costs $650 to $1,350 per window for a full replacement, depending on size, glass package, and frame material. We install and service casement windows across Dallas, and we put a written price in your hands before any work starts. Call (361) 203-9040 if you want a quote for your specific openings.

Casement windows earn their keep in Dallas for two reasons. First, they seal tighter than sliding or double-hung windows because the sash presses into the frame’s weatherstripping when you close the crank. That matters when July pushes 100 degrees and your AC is fighting the sun. Second, they catch side breezes, which is why you see so many of them on older homes in Lakewood, East Dallas, and the M Streets. When cranked open, the sash acts like a scoop that channels wind into the room. If you’re looking at a broader project, our Window Installation in Dallas page covers the full range of what we do.

At Hale Windows Dallas, casement work falls under the same rules as every other job we take. You get a written price before we order materials. You get a written guarantee on the repair or install. And if something isn’t right, our 365-Day Done Right Promise means we come back and fix it, no argument needed. Spencer Odell runs this location, and every technician who comes to your door is background-checked, identity-verified, photo-badged, and pre-announced by name and photo before the visit.

When You Need Casement Windows

Casement windows work best in specific situations. Here’s what we see most often in Dallas homes:

• Your current casement crank is stripped or frozen. The operator mechanism wears out, especially on windows facing west where afternoon sun bakes the hardware. If the crank spins but the sash doesn’t move, the gear assembly needs replacement. We can often repair this without replacing the whole window.
• The sash won’t seal tight, and you can feel air moving. Casement windows rely on the sash compressing into the frame. Over time, the hinges sag or the weatherstripping flattens, and you get drafts. In older Dallas homes with original casements, this is the most common comfort complaint we hear.
• You want cross-ventilation in a stuffy room. Rooms with one window benefit from a casement because it captures and directs airflow better than a sliding window. Homeowners in neighborhoods like Oak Cliff and Casa Linda often ask us to swap a small slider for a casement in kitchens and bathrooms for this reason.
• You need egress in a bedroom. Building code requires bedroom windows to meet minimum opening size for escape. Casement windows can be specified to meet egress requirements, and they’re popular in mid-century Dallas homes where window openings are narrow.
• You’re replacing windows in a hard-to-reach spot. A crank is easier to operate than lifting a sash, which matters over a kitchen sink or behind a sofa. We install casements in these locations regularly, and we specify hardware that matches the reach you actually have.
• Your current casement is original to a 1950s or 1960s home. Dallas has a huge stock of mid-century homes with steel or wood casements that have rusted, rotted, or warped. We replace them with modern casements from lines like ES Windows and Mr-Glass, preserving the look while upgrading the glass and seal.

Our Casement Windows Process

We keep this process predictable so you know exactly what happens from the first phone call to the final walkthrough.

1. You call, a live person answers. We don’t use voicemail during business hours, and our phone line is answered 24/7. You’ll speak with someone who knows windows, not a dispatch script. Call (361) 203-9040 and describe what your casement is doing, or what you want installed.
2. We schedule a measurement visit, and you know who is coming. Before the technician arrives, we send you their name and photo. They arrive in uniform with a photo badge. This is the Threshold Standard, and it applies to every visit, including estimates.
3. We measure, assess, and recommend. The technician checks the opening, the jamb depth, the sill condition, and the surrounding trim. We look at the glass package you need. In Dallas, we typically recommend low-E glass, which is a thin coating that blocks heat while letting light through, and we’ll talk about whether argon gas fill makes sense for your exposure.
4. You get a written price before you decide anything. No pressure. The quote is itemized, and it is valid as written. You can hold on to it for a week or a month. If you call back, the price doesn’t change unless the scope changes.
5. We install, and we don’t leave a mess. The install crew removes the old sash and frame, seals the opening properly with flashing and insulation, sets the new casement, and checks the crank operation several times. We test the seal with a draft check. The area is cleaned before we leave.
6. You get a written guarantee, and we stand behind it. Every repair and install carries a written guarantee. If a repair fails within the covered period, the second visit is free. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is our umbrella: if it’s not done right, we make it right.

Casement Windows Pricing in Dallas

What you pay for casement window work in Dallas depends on four things: the size of the opening, the frame material, the glass package, and whether you’re repairing or replacing. Here’s a breakdown of typical ranges we quote in Dallas:

These ranges reflect what we quote across Dallas in 2025, from Preston Hollow to Lake Highlands to Bishop Arts. The single biggest cost driver is frame material. Vinyl keeps the price down. Aluminum and wood-clad frames cost more, and in some Dallas historic districts, wood may be required by local preservation guidelines. Glass package matters too. Standard low-E glass is the baseline we recommend for Texas heat. If you want laminated glass for storm protection or noise reduction, expect the price to rise.

Every quote is free. The price we give you is the price you pay, in writing, before we order anything. If you want to know what your specific casement project costs, call (361) 203-9040 and we’ll schedule a measurement visit.

FAQs – Casement Windows

How much does it cost to replace a casement window in Dallas?

A casement window replacement in Dallas typically costs between $650 and $1,350 per window, depending on size, frame material, and glass package. Vinyl casements fall on the lower end, while premium lines like ES Windows or Mr-Glass run higher. Call (361) 203-9040 for an exact quote on your openings; estimates are free and written.

Can you repair a casement window crank that won’t turn?

Yes, a frozen or stripped casement crank usually means the operator mechanism has failed, and we replace that part for $160 to $290 in Dallas. The repair carries a written guarantee, and if it fails, the second visit is free. If the sash itself is warped or the frame is damaged, replacement may be the better long-term fit, and we’ll tell you that plainly.

Are casement windows better than double-hung windows in Dallas heat?

Casement windows seal tighter than double-hung windows because the sash presses into the frame when closed, which reduces air leakage in Dallas summers. They also capture side breezes well when open. Double-hung windows still work fine in many rooms, but for windows that face afternoon sun or sit in windy spots, casements often perform better on both sealing and ventilation.

How long does casement window installation take?

Most casement window replacements in Dallas are completed in one day per window, including removal, sealing, installation, and cleanup. Larger projects with multiple windows, custom sizing, or historic district requirements may take longer, and we’ll give you a timeline in writing before work begins.

Do you install casement windows from ES Windows or Mr-Glass?

Yes, we install and service casement windows from both ES Windows and Mr-Glass, along with other professional lines like ECO Window Systems and Therma-Tru. We match the product to your home and exposure rather than pushing one brand. If you know the brand you want, we’ll quote it. If you don’t, we’ll explain what matters for your opening and let you decide.
