Bay Vs Bow Windows

What Is The Difference Between Bay and Bow Windows?

While bay and bow windows might seem interchangeable, they have very distinct differences. Bay windows are typically made up of 3 windows and feature more angular lines, they are often used in contemporary-style homes but look fantastic when installed in a more traditional-style home.

Bow windows on the other hand are made up of 4-6 windows, composed in a way that creates a smooth curve extending outwards. Both options offer beautiful expansive views and allow natural light to flood your home. Unsure of which style would suit your home better?

Bay & Bow Window Replacements

Installation Choices For Bow and Bay Windows

Full-Frame Vs Retrofitting

Full-Frame Replacement

A full frame replacement consists of removing the full window, including the window sash and the window frame. This is a slightly larger undertaking, however, it allows our installers to check the surrounding area for dampness, mould, or rot. This service is recommended when installing new bay or bow windows, or if your window frame is not in excellent condition.

Retrofit Installation

Another installation method is a retrofit, this is when our installers only remove the window sash and leave the window frame intact. This is a shorter window installation method, however, it is only recommended for homeowners who are simply replacing the same window style and are sure their window frame is still in excellent condition.
