Dormer Window Replacement in Hanover, MA

Front view of three white dormers with new black windows and white trim above a covered porch.

Marine Home Improvement completed this dormer window replacement in Hanover, MA, updating three front dormers with black Alside Mezzo windows and white PVC trim, giving the façade a clean, updated look while preserving its traditional character.

The before photos show peeling paint and deteriorated wood around the existing windows, especially along the sills. These worn details stood out on the home’s prominent dormers and made them a natural focus for the exterior update.

For this portion of the project, we removed the existing windows and installed Alside Mezzo vinyl replacement windows with black exteriors and white interiors. Exterior wood window trim was replaced with PVC, and the installation scope included insulation around the new window systems and sealing the joints.

The finished photos show the difference: three matching dormers with dark window frames, neatly finished white surrounds, and a consistent appearance across the roofline. The black windows also complement the shutters below, bringing the front of the home together.

Small architectural features can make a big difference in curb appeal. This dormer window replacement shows how updated windows and carefully finished trim can refresh a home’s exterior without changing its familiar style.
