replacing windows

Jan 23, 2004 3 Replies

We have Andersen double hung windows that need to be replaced. We have a brick veneer on the front of our house and vinyl siding on the rest of the house. How do you remove the old windows which are probably nail in to the framing without removing the siding? How would I remove the windows in front with the brick veneer?

The only way I've seen this done is to remove the bricks that surround the windows.

Remove then from the inside. If possible disassemble the windows from the window frame, remove the casing around the inside of the window, use a reciprocating saw and cut the nails holding them to the framing. The windows should now come in, might need some persuasion.
