Windows, Doors and Siding in New Braunfels
Sun exposure is the dominant factor in this market. West-facing glass in the Hill Country takes a punishing amount of afternoon heat, and the right low-emissivity coating on those elevations changes indoor comfort more than adding another ton of cooling capacity. Storms here deliver intense rain over short periods, which finds any flashing shortcut quickly, and hail is a genuine risk across Comal County. On older properties near the rivers, higher humidity and mature tree cover mean rot at sills and lower siding courses is common, so the honest scope often includes repairs that only become visible once the old material is off.
