What that means for your windows

Most Waukee homes are new, so window work is more often egress openings for basements, patio door upgrades and fixing early seal failures than full replacement; see egress windows. Many homes are still under builder or manufacturer window warranties, so check the paperwork before paying for a seal or hardware repair.

Open prairie exposure

New subdivisions on open land catch the wind. Well-installed windows with proper flashing keep driven rain out. Open subdivisions with young trees take the full force of winter wind and summer hail, and screens and capping often show it first.

A railroad town turned suburb

Waukee was laid out in 1869 and is thought to be named after the Milwaukee Road railroad. It incorporated on December 23, 1878. In 2017 Apple chose it for a $1.38 billion data center campus, a sign of how quickly the area has grown. With so many homes built in the same few years, warranty questions are common; keep your window paperwork handy; see hiring a window company.
