Canyon County, Idaho
Double-Hung Windows in Nampa, ID
Canyon County's hub, where agricultural roots meet fast growth
Nampa's century-span housing means double-hungs of every era — original wood units on early-1900s downtown homes, aluminum-frame versions on mid-century ranches, and builder vinyl on the 1990s subdivisions toward Karcher and Lake Lowell. Iron Crest Exteriors replaces them with modern double-hungs whose sashes both operate and tilt in to clean, in vinyl or fiberglass with grids sized to fit a historic-core home or a newer subdivision house alike. Flashed and air-sealed correctly, they stop the dust infiltration and drafts that loose, worn double-hungs let in on Nampa's windy Canyon County floor.

Our process
How double-hung windows works in Nampa
- 01
On-site measure & assessment
We measure every opening, check the existing frame and surrounding wall for rot or water damage, and confirm frame material and glass package before quoting a firm price.
- 02
Glass & frame selection
We match U-factor and SHGC to each elevation and walk you through vinyl, fiberglass, and composite frames so you understand the trade-offs before anything is ordered.
- 03
Remove old units & inspect
Old sashes and frames come out and we inspect the rough opening, addressing any rot or moisture damage we find before the new unit goes in.
- 04
Set, flash & insulate
Each window is set level and square, flashed and air-sealed to the weather barrier, and the gaps are insulated so the rated performance is actually achieved.
- 05
Trim, seal & walkthrough
Interior and exterior trim is finished, joints are sealed, we test every sash for smooth operation, and we walk the job with you before closeout.
Every Nampa job includes pulling any permit Canyon County requires and a full clean-up — we leave your home tight, weather-sealed, and looking sharp.
Working in Nampa
Canyon County's hub, where agricultural roots meet fast growth
Nampa is the largest city in Canyon County and the metro's second-largest overall, with deep agricultural roots, an older downtown, and farm ground stretching toward Lake Lowell. The housing stock spans a full century — early 1900s downtown homes with original wood siding, mid-century ranches with hardboard and aluminum, sprawling 1980s–1990s subdivisions, and newer construction filling in on the edges.
Nampa's wide range of housing vintages means siding and window conditions vary dramatically block to block — pre-1980 homes may still carry original wood siding and aluminum windows, while 1990s subdivisions are now into vinyl replacement age. Dry Canyon County winds, blowing field dust, and hot, exposed summers accelerate wear on any exterior that isn't properly sealed and maintained.

Do you work outside Nampa, too?

Will you clean up after double-hung windows in Nampa?
Always. Every Nampa job ends with a full clean-up — we haul away the old materials and packaging and leave your Canyon County home tidy and protected.
What's the difference between double-hung and single-hung?
In a double-hung both sashes operate and tilt in for cleaning; in a single-hung only the bottom sash moves. Double-hung costs a bit more but gives you top-down ventilation and far easier cleaning on upper floors, which is why most of our valley customers choose it.
Will new double-hung windows stop my drafts?
A properly installed, well-flashed double-hung with a low U-factor seals far tighter than old single-pane or worn aluminum windows. Most drafts we find trace to failed seals and poor air-sealing around the old frame, and correct installation is what fixes that — not just the new unit.
What does U-factor and SHGC mean for my home?
U-factor measures how well the window resists heat loss — lower is better for our cold winters. SHGC measures how much solar heat the glass lets in — a lower SHGC on south- and west-facing walls keeps summer afternoons cooler. We match both to each elevation.
