Opening condition
Rough opening, frame depth, wall system, existing leakage, rot, and out-of-square conditions affect the real scope.
DFW trade scope
Window & Exterior Door Installation
A window or door replacement is more than the unit. TrueForm scopes the opening, removal method, water management, shimming, flashing, air sealing, sill, trim, hardware, and interior/exterior finish repairs together.
Written scope
What this specialty page puts on the table
The signed proposal controls the actual project. This page is the checklist used to make the proposal more complete.
- Opening and operation review
- Replacement method and water-management discussion
- Interior/exterior trim and finish boundaries
- Hardware, threshold, screen, and access coordination
Field checks
The details that change method, price, or sequence
Water and air path
Flashing, pan, sealants, drainage, and insulation are considered as a connected assembly—not decorative caulk.
Operation and egress
Swing, handing, clearances, guards, security, and required opening dimensions are checked for the specific location.
Dependencies to resolve
- Verified field dimensions
- Selected unit and performance specifications
- Permit or HOA path where applicable
- Resolved exterior cladding and interior trim approach
Open conditions stay visible
- Hidden rot or structural opening repair
- Security, impact, or energy performance not documented by the selected product
- Paint or masonry repair outside listed boundaries
Direct answers
Questions homeowners ask before the walkthrough
Insert replacement or full-frame replacement?
That depends on the existing frame, water-management condition, desired glass area, trim impact, and the selected product system.
Are window dimensions taken from the visible opening?
No. Ordering dimensions depend on the selected replacement method and verified frame or rough-opening conditions.
