If your windows are drafty, difficult to open, collecting condensation, or simply no longer fit the look of your home, D&W Windows can help. We provide custom replacement windows for homeowners throughout Genesee County, with options designed for Michigan’s changing seasons and your home’s specific needs.
D&W helps Genesee County homeowners replace aging windows with custom window solutions that balance comfort, appearance, efficiency, and ease of use. Because every home and window opening is different, the right choice depends on factors such as the condition of the existing opening, preferred window style, glass package, and installation needs.
D&W’s Michigan Window™ is made for Michigan weather and is available with features including low-e glass, Smart-Spacer™ warm-edge technology, and foam-filled frames. During your in-home consultation, the D&W team can help you compare options for your home and priorities.
Genesee County’s housing stock is older than the national average — roughly 68% of homes in the county were built before 1980, and nearly 1 in 5 date back to before 1950. Original windows from that era were built for a different standard of energy performance, and decades of expansion and contraction can leave frames warped, seals broken, and glass fogged between panes.
That age matters because of where the county sits: Genesee is in IECC Climate Zone 5A, a heating-dominated zone with winter design temperatures that can drop to 0°F. Flint-area winters average in the mid-teens to mid-20s°F through January and February, with roughly 30–38 inches of snowfall in a typical season. Homes here spend more months of the year heating than cooling, which puts sustained pressure on any window that isn’t sealing correctly.
D&W Windows & Sunrooms manufactures The Michigan Window™ in Michigan and serves homeowners from its Davison location. That local connection gives Genesee County homeowners a nearby team to consult with before, during, and after their replacement-window project.
D&W custom manufactures The Michigan Window™ and offers in-home estimates to help homeowners make an informed choice. D&W manufactures, installs, and services its own windows — one point of contact for product quality, installation, and any follow-up support, rather than coordinating between a manufacturer and a separate installation crew.
A replacement-window project begins with an in-home consultation. D&W will discuss your concerns, evaluate the existing windows and openings, take measurements, and help you compare styles and options. D&W’s professionally trained installers handle the installation, and post-install service is handled by the D&W team as well.
Once you choose your windows, your project team will explain the next steps, including manufacturing, scheduling, installation, cleanup, and final review. The exact timing and scope depend on the number of windows, the condition of the home, product selections, and other project-specific details.
D&W serves homeowners across Genesee County, including Flint, Burton, Davison, Grand Blanc, Gaines, Fenton, Flushing, Linden, Lake Fenton, Argentine, Swartz Creek, Clio, Montrose, and Mount Morris.
Whether your home has older windows that no longer operate properly or you are planning an update for appearance and comfort, D&W can help you explore custom replacement-window options. If you’re unsure whether your address falls within the service area, contact D&W directly to confirm before scheduling.
The best replacement window is the one that fits your home, how you use the room, and what you want to improve. Choosing replacement windows means weighing a handful of decisions — frame material, glass package, performance ratings, installation approach, and warranty coverage.
Frame Material: Vinyl
Vinyl frames are the most common replacement window material in Michigan, offering strong insulation, low maintenance, and no repainting or staining required. D&W’s Michigan Window™ uses vinyl construction with foam-filled frames designed for Michigan’s heating-dominated climate.
Choose a Style That Works for the Room
D&W offers several replacement-window styles, including single-hung, double-hung, sliding, casement, awning, center-vent, and end-vent windows. Bay, bow, picture, and custom-shape windows are also available.
Glass Package: Panes, Coatings, and Gas Fills
Most Michigan homeowners choose between double-pane glass with additional performance options like low-E coatings and gas fills between the panes.
D&W’s Michigan Window™ is available with low-e sealed glass, Smart-Spacer™ warm-edge technology, and foam-filled frames. Your consultant can explain the available configurations for the specific window style you choose.
Consider the Installation, Not Just the Window
The window itself is only one part of the project. A complete evaluation should include measurements, the condition of the existing opening, interior and exterior trim needs, and a clear plan for installation and cleanup.
A proper replacement window installation involves more steps than just removing the old unit and dropping in the new one:
Warranty: What to Ask About
Warranty coverage varies significantly between manufacturers, so it’s worth asking specifically about:
D&W backs its replacement windows with a warranty.
Why the Manufacturer-Installer Relationship Matters
Many replacement window companies sell a product manufactured by someone else, then subcontract the installation to a separate crew — which can complicate accountability if something goes wrong. D&W manufactures, sells, installs, and services its own windows, so one company is responsible for the entire process from measurement through post-installation support.
Common signs include drafts, condensation between glass panes, windows that stick or will not stay open, visible damage, water intrusion, and fading or outdated appearance. An in-home evaluation can help determine whether replacement is the right solution.
D&W offers single-hung, double-hung, sliding, casement, awning, center-vent, end-vent, bay, bow, picture, and custom-shape window options. The right style depends on the opening, room use, ventilation needs, and appearance you want.
Ask about frame construction, glass options, U-factor, air leakage, window operation, customization, installation details, warranty coverage, and who will provide service after installation. Your consultant can explain which factors are most relevant to your project.
New windows may improve comfort when they address issues such as worn components, poor seals, or aging glass. Results vary by home and depend on the window selected, the condition of the opening, and installation quality.

Replacement-window pricing depends on the number of windows, window styles, sizes, glass and frame options, installation requirements, and the condition of the existing openings. A free in-home estimate gives you pricing based on your specific project.
Permit requirements for window replacement vary by city and township within Genesee County, and typically depend on whether the new window matches the existing opening size. D&W can advise whether your project requires a permit as part of the estimate process. Like-for-like replacements often don’t require a permit in many municipalities, while enlarging or relocating an opening usually does.
