About This Project

The Smith College Lamont House project involved a comprehensive window replacement initiative that transformed the aesthetic and functional qualities of the dormitory's exteri. This project required the removal of all existing windows, totaling 128 units, and their replacement with high-performance commercial windows. Collaborating closely with Smith College, TR Wells Custom Framers executed this task with a focus on precision and quality, ensuring that the new installations adhered to the college’s stringent standards. One of the significant challenges faced during this project was the installation of the windows within existing masonry openings. This required meticulous attention to detail in sealing and caulking the exterior to guarantee optimal performance against water and air penetration. An independent contractor, hired by Smith College, conducted rigorous water and air tests to evaluate the effectiveness of the installation. Thanks to TR Wells' careful planning and execution, the windows passed these demanding tests on the first attempt, showcasing the company's commitment to excellence in craftsmanship. The choice of materials played a crucial role in the overall success of the project. The selected windows not only enhanced the visual appeal of the Lamont House but also contributed to improved energy efficiency and inhabitants' comfort. TR Wells took particular care in the installation of the interior trim, ensuring that it complemented the new windows while maintaining the historical integrity of the building’s architecture. This attention to detail has resulted in a harmonious blend of modern functionality and traditional design, elevating the dormitory's appearance and performance. The outcome of the Smith College Lamont House window replacement project is a testament to TR Wells Custom Framers' dedication to quality workmanship and client satisfaction. With enhanced aesthetics and superior performance metrics, the newly installed windows are set to provide lasting benefits to the college community for years to come.
