Sometimes, it is layered over another material like aluminum or wood for more durability because vinyl can warp or crack alone.

It tends to be smooth inside and out and creates a lightweight frame. Vinyl is a low-maintenance material that does not require painting. This includes casements, sash, bay, and picture windows 1. They are available in every type and size. Vinyl replacement windows cost between $100 and $4,500. This decision impacts how much you pay for your replacement: Some may be longer-lasting, while others are low-maintenance. Frames come in several materials, each with attributes and price points. The frame of your window plays a big role in how much the window will ultimately cost.

But what am I going to find at the exterior? I took some pics that I will attempt to show below. I don't like the ancient, plain trim that's on there now, so I figured I'd take that off to measure the rough opening. Getting to the interior side shouldn't be a problem. I've also seen way too many videos of novices doing absolutely no water management, and even screwing window frames directly into brick and adding some caulk to the cracks.

I've seen some examples online where people were able to get behind the brick.

I understand how you should flash around the opening, but having a brick facade isn't so obvious to me. Andersen has 'replacement' versions of the casement windows, which are basically the same as the regular ones except without the nailing flange. I've gutted bathrooms and renovated walls before, so I think I'm up for the task, but if I'm going to open a hole in my house in the fall, I don't want to run into any big surprises. So I'm trying to figure out what it's going to take to install a window like this in my brick veneer house. Now the problem is my wife prefers casement windows for most of the house, and they don't make simple inserts for those. I've read all the installation instructions for this window and several other brands online, and this replacement looks to be as simple as it gets. I decided this would be my 'test' to install myself. I already ordered an Andersen Woodwright double hung insert window to put in a bathroom in the back of the house.
