The $500 Window "Deal" vs. The $5,000 Structural Nightmare 🏠🌧️⚠️

It’s our final challenge of the week for homeowners in the Portland Metro Area! Today, we’re looking at the most common entry point for moisture damage: Windows and Doors.

Look at the Split Screen:

📍 On the Left: The $500 "Budget Install." A handyman slaps in a window with cheap caulk and no professional flashing. It looks fine on day one, but it’s a ticking time bomb for the Oregon rain.

📍 On the Right: The $5,000 REAL Repair. Two years later, the water has seeped behind the siding. Now you’re paying to replace the window again, plus the rotted studs, the drywall, and the exterior facade.

Guess which one costs you more in 2 years? Hint: The "deal" on the left just cost you ten times the original price.

At DLUXE CONSTRUCTION, we are PREVENTIVE EXPERTS. We don’t just "swap" windows; we restore the structural integrity of the opening. Our full-scale exterior restoration ensures that every window and door is integrated into a professional moisture barrier with expert American craftsmanship.
