Lightwell Windows & Doors is the window and door company Greatwood homeowners call when original 1990s and 2000s aluminum frames start failing in the heat and humidity. Most window replacements in Greatwood run between $550 and $1,400 per opening depending on size, glass package, and whether the existing frame needs full tear-out or can accept a pocket insert. Doors typically land between $900 and $3,200 installed. Keith Yamada leads our Greatwood crews, and you can reach us any time at (254) 401-4583.
Why Greatwood Homes Are Different
Greatwood’s master-planned neighborhoods grew fast in the 1990s and early 2000s, and the building practices of that era show up on nearly every street. Brick and stucco homes from that period were commonly fitted with single-pane or low-e aluminum windows, and those frames conduct heat straight into the house. The seal failures we see are not subtle: fog between the panes, drafts at the sill, and glass that feels warm from three feet away in August. High humidity makes the problem worse because aluminum frames sweat and the condensate eventually stains drywall and blinds.
There is also a distinctly Greatwood pattern from the years after Hurricane Harvey. Many homeowners replaced only the windows damaged on one elevation, usually the side that faced the storm, while the rest of the house kept its original glass. The result is mismatched tints and uneven fading that you can spot from the curb. We often walk a home and find two or three different glass generations within the same wall line. It is not cosmetic; mixed glass ages at different rates, and the older panes keep leaking air while the newer ones hold. Greatwood’s humid subtropical weather means impact-resistant glass and reinforced door frames are not upgrades here. They are the baseline for anything that has to survive hurricane season.

Our Main Greatwood Services
Greatwood homeowners call us most often about the two jobs below, and each has its own page with the full detail and pricing.
Window Replacement in Greatwood
Window replacement in Greatwood usually means pulling original aluminum frames from 1990s and 2000s construction and setting new, properly flashed units into the opening. The climate makes the details matter: we check sill slope, backer rod placement, and the condition of the rough opening before any new frame goes in, because humidity and wind-driven rain will find any small gap. Sealed, energy-efficient glass changes how a Greatwood home holds temperature in July, and impact-rated options matter on storm-facing elevations. See the full breakdown at Window Replacement in Greatwood.
Window Installation in Greatwood
Window installation in Greatwood covers new-construction or addition work, and also the retrofit jobs where a homeowner has already bought windows and needs them set correctly. The local variable is the framing: many Greatwood homes have brick veneer and stucco, which means the exterior trim work and flashing details are different than on a wood-sided house. We set every unit level and square, insulate around the frame, and seal against the humid, storm-heavy weather this area gets. The step-by-step scope is at Window Installation in Greatwood.
Door Installation in Greatwood
Door installation in Greatwood frequently means replacing a builder-grade steel or fiberglass entry door that has warped or lost its seal in the humidity. The house may be beautiful, but the original front door is often the cheapest thing the builder could hang. We install properly reinforced door frames, adjust thresholds for a tight weather seal, and choose door slabs that hold up to direct sun and heavy rain. Storm-resistant options are common here, and we walk through the door material choices in detail at Door Installation in Greatwood.
