Housing and window planning in College Way

College Way houses run from about 1,400 to 2,300 square feet, and most come in under 1,800. Many combine stone with brick or siding, while others are brick alone or brick with wood siding. The oldest houses date to 1949 on North College Avenue, and the newest to 1958 on Guilford Avenue. Some have been reworked over the decades, with back porches converted to three season rooms on College Avenue and sunrooms added to houses on Carrollton Avenue, and basements under many of them, so a one story footprint can hold more rooms than it shows from the street.

The neighborhood's housing gives us a starting point for the visit. We'll still measure your house individually, including any openings that have changed during an update. If you're replacing windows as part of the project, let us know before the treatments are ordered so the plan can use the finished frames.

What to check at the windows in College Way

Sunrooms and converted porches are the glass heavy rooms to plan around here, with three season rooms on North College Avenue and sunrooms on Carrollton Avenue. A room like that often has glass on two or three sides, so the crew measures each opening separately and looks at how low the afternoon sun comes across the yard before suggesting a fabric. Egress windows have been added to some basements, and those take a shade sized to the opening that clears the sash. Thermal replacement windows are common on Carrollton Avenue, and the crew checks frame depth at each one before choosing an inside or outside mount.

We'll look at the way light enters your College Way rooms and check how the windows operate. The treatment needs to suit the opening when it's lowered and when it's raised. That includes the space for the hardware and the access you'll need to use the window.

Products to compare for your College Way home

These are options to discuss during your College Way consultation. We'll narrow the choice after seeing the glass and learning which rooms you're working on. You can review a coordinated plan for the house or start with the rooms that need attention first.
