Savannah Window Co provides professional casement and awning windows in Savannah, GA for residential and commercial properties across the lower Savannah and Ogeechee basins. Casements and awnings seal better than anything else on the market, and that is not a marketing claim. The sash pulls into a gasket as the lock throws, so the closure is compression rather than a sash sliding past a brush. Air leakage numbers reflect it.
That matters in a house running air conditioning for seven months. Every cubic foot of humid outdoor air pulled through a leaky sash arrives carrying latent load your system has to remove before it can start cooling anything. Compression seals cut that at the source, and you feel it as a room that holds temperature rather than as a number on a bill.
An awning hangs from its head and pushes open along the bottom edge, which makes it the one window you can leave open through a Savannah thunderstorm. They suit high openings above kitchen counters, bathroom openings where privacy matters, and transom positions above a fixed lite. On a wall where you want ventilation and nobody looking in, this is the answer.
Casements hinge at the side and swing wide, so the entire opening ventilates rather than half of it. They also catch a breeze running along a wall and turn it into the room, which a double hung cannot do. The crank operator and the multipoint lock are the parts that decide how long you like it, so buy those and not the frame color.
The Savannah caution is a geometric one, and it is where this page departs from the usual advice. A casement wants an opening that is taller than it is wide. Most of the older openings in this city are exactly that, which is fine. But a mid-century ranch opening is wide and short, and putting casements there means altering the wall, which is a permitted change in size.
We would rather you did not do that. A permitted alteration on a pre-map house below base flood elevation joins a five-year cumulative total measured against half the structure's appraised value, and window work is a poor use of that headroom. Use an awning pair, or a slider, and keep the opening exactly where it is.
The second caution is wind. A casement standing open is a sail bolted to your house, and a gust taking one on an exposed elevation near the water will bend the operator arm or tear a hinge out of the sash. Limit stops are worth fitting. On the most exposed elevations we suggest fixed glazing with an awning below it instead.
When these fail, they fail in the hardware, which is good news. Operators, hinges and lock keepers are replaceable parts and we stock the common ones. If a fifteen-year-old casement is stiff, dragging or no longer pulling tight against its gasket, ask about the mechanism before anybody quotes you a new window.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — pultruded fiberglass frames ordered to the measured opening, insert sash packs fitted inside an existing jamb, sill pans with end dams and a sloped back leg, flood-damage-resistant frame materials under FEMA Technical Bulletin 2, laminated impact glazing over a 0.090-inch interlayer, warm-edge spacers in argon-filled insulating glass units — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Savannah and nearby communities including Pooler, Garden City, Port Wentworth, Thunderbolt.

Materials, equipment and how we do casement and awning windows
The difference between casement and awning windows that lasts and casement and awning windows that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with pultruded fiberglass frames ordered to the measured opening, insert sash packs fitted inside an existing jamb, sill pans with end dams and a sloped back leg, flood-damage-resistant frame materials under FEMA Technical Bulletin 2, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Savannah job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of window work in the lower Savannah and Ogeechee basins means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
