Double-Hung Windows in Meridian, ID
Idaho's fastest-growing city, from Ten Mile to the Linder corridor
Double-hung windows are the default across Meridian's master-planned subdivisions, and on the 1990s–2010s homes around Ten Mile and the Linder corridor those original builder units are now sticking, fogging, and leaking air around the frames. Iron Crest Exteriors replaces them with modern double-hungs — both sashes operating, tilting in for easy cleaning on second-story tract homes — in vinyl or fiberglass with grid patterns that match the rest of the subdivision. Properly flashed and air-sealed, they restore smooth operation and cut the drafts these fast-built valley-floor homes develop as the builder hardware wears out.
What's included
- Insert & full-frame replacement

- Energy-efficient glass packages

Across Meridian — Ten Mile, the Linder corridor, south Meridian, and the rest of Ada County — we tailor every double-hung windows project to the age, style, and exposure of the home.
Our process
How double-hung windows works in Meridian
- 01
On-site measure & assessment
We measure every opening, check the existing frame and surrounding wall for rot or water damage, and confirm frame material and glass package before quoting a firm price.
- 02
Glass & frame selection
We match U-factor and SHGC to each elevation and walk you through vinyl, fiberglass, and composite frames so you understand the trade-offs before anything is ordered.
- 03
Remove old units & inspect
Old sashes and frames come out and we inspect the rough opening, addressing any rot or moisture damage we find before the new unit goes in.
- 04
Set, flash & insulate
Each window is set level and square, flashed and air-sealed to the weather barrier, and the gaps are insulated so the rated performance is actually achieved.
- 05
Trim, seal & walkthrough
Interior and exterior trim is finished, joints are sealed, we test every sash for smooth operation, and we walk the job with you before closeout.
Every Meridian job includes pulling any permit Ada County requires and a full clean-up — we leave your home tight, weather-sealed, and looking sharp.
Working in Meridian
Idaho's fastest-growing city, from Ten Mile to the Linder corridor
Meridian sits on the flat valley floor between Boise and Nampa and has grown from farm ground into one of Idaho's most populous cities. The overwhelming majority of its housing is 1990s–2010s tract construction in master-planned subdivisions, which means the original builder vinyl siding, contractor-grade windows, and basic entry doors on tens of thousands of homes are all aging on roughly the same timeline.
Meridian's huge stock of late-1990s and 2000s tract homes drives a steady market for full re-sides and whole-house window replacements — the original materials were typically minimum-spec and are now fading, cracking, or leaking air around the frames. On the open valley floor there is little tree cover, so south and west elevations sun-fade noticeably and HOA-area homes often want a refreshed, uniform exterior color.

Double-Hung Windows in Meridian — FAQs
How does tilt-in cleaning help on a two-story Meridian tract home?
It saves you the ladder. So many of Meridian's subdivision homes are two stories on open lots, which makes washing the outside of upper windows a real chore. A modern double-hung lets both sashes tilt inward, so you clean the exterior glass from inside the second-floor room instead of climbing or hiring it out. On the dusty, treeless valley floor where west-facing glass shows grime fast, that's a feature most homeowners here end up using every season.
Is double-hung windows available across Meridian?

Do you work outside Meridian, too?
We do — along with Meridian, we regularly handle double-hung windows in nearby Boise, Nampa, Eagle, Star, Kuna and across the wider Treasure Valley. If you're near The Village at Meridian, you're well inside our service area.
Will you clean up after double-hung windows in Meridian?
Always. Every Meridian job ends with a full clean-up — we haul away the old materials and packaging and leave your Ada County home tidy and protected.
What's the difference between double-hung and single-hung?
In a double-hung both sashes operate and tilt in for cleaning; in a single-hung only the bottom sash moves. Double-hung costs a bit more but gives you top-down ventilation and far easier cleaning on upper floors, which is why most of our valley customers choose it.
Will new double-hung windows stop my drafts?
A properly installed, well-flashed double-hung with a low U-factor seals far tighter than old single-pane or worn aluminum windows. Most drafts we find trace to failed seals and poor air-sealing around the old frame, and correct installation is what fixes that — not just the new unit.
