Replacing windows in a cinderblock/stucco house
Hello,
We have a cinderblock construction house with stucco on the outside. We'd like to replace the windows, but don't know how to get the old ones out without damaging the stucco. Can anyone provide any advice? Thank you! |

Can you give more detail on the widows there and if it has brick mold on the outside trim. I'm curious why you need to take the whole window out. Normally "replacement windows" uses the original gambs and the out side old window stops. The middle stop is removed on a double hung window. What style of window is there now and what style is the replacements. Now if you for some reason still want the old window gone If its wood trim outside carefully pry of old exterior wood trim. Do the same for the inside trim and apron under-sill, look for the side nails holding the window and Sawzall out the old nails and remove old window.
