General comment Exterior windows are an essential component of a home's facade, providing both aesthetic appeal and functionality. They can be enhanced with shutters, which are easy to maintain and come in various sizes and styles. Proper installation and painting of shutters can significantly improve the appearance of a home. Exterior caulk is used to seal seams around windows to prevent water damage, while window trim frames the exterior side and comes in materials like PVC, cedar, and vinyl. Flashing is installed to prevent water seepage around windows. New construction windows feature a nailing fin for installation, whereas replacement windows are secured in an existing frame without a nailing fin.
