This is exactly what I've been searching for. I need to replace my windows on my stucco house and I refuse to pay exorbitant prices installers charge. I'd rather put my money in quality windows. Thanks. Great job explaining the process.

Thank you so much for your very detailed videos. I love that you show the difficulties in the process and not make it seem like everything goes perfect and smoothly and how you work through the difficult steps. Your videos are truly my favorite.

I appreciate how you share what you're thinking and talk about multiple ways to solve a problem and how you warn us about other configurations or issues we might see.

Nice video.

I just removed 6 windows. For the stubborn nails, I ground the heads off. It worked pretty well.

Like always, great work and explanation. Wish all folks in construction were like you.

Excellent video! This is the exact type of installation video I need. I have the same type stucco-built around. I will be attempting to do this myself. I've done home repair, this will be the most involved one I'll undertake. All my south facing windows are toast, the others are great. One window at a time. :) Thanks for the video, subscribed.

You do such a great job on all of your videos explaining what materials and why you use them and why your doing it that way . Love the videos! Thank you and your camera man or woman, keep up the great work ! 👍🏼👍🏼

Never cut the “building wrap”. The WRB (weather resistant barrier) protects your home from water intrusion. Unless the WRB is being replaced. Whether it’s a dry climate or not flashing is required to lap over the WRB to create a “waterfall” effect. Water WILL find penetrations and cause damage if not done properly.

Another 1/4" build out for the silicone would have made it much easier to apply... and speaking of that, get rid of that clear silicone! It will dry, accumulate all the dirt and will look like garbage in a short time. Go with a paintable latex caulk, paint it to match your stucco and your stucco/window frame transition will look so much better.

Thanks for the stucco demo intro .. Im adding stucco molding to an existing door that has been "finished" off just needed an image to my execution .

Anyone anyone else get a $7000 quote for a single window and then immediately head to YouTube to see how to do it themselves…?

nice work shannon. I'm actually working on a window replacement job now that I'll be posting to my channel. doesn't involve stucco but it's always nice to see other scenarios. Thanks 👍

This is a wonderful video, and the craftsman has a gift for explaining. He's pleasant and easy to take. Still, some diagrams, interspersed in the early part of the video, would have helped the viewer understand quite exactly what was to be measured.

Thanks my friend, as always great video and tutorial, God bless you and your family and business.

Love the barn swallow nest above the door. Great job on the window. Thanks.
