Westlake Royal Building Products

Many of our windows are ENERGY STAR certified, ensuring they meet the highest energy efficiency standards. You can find the ENERGY STAR label on the product page or inquire about specific models when you consult with one of our experts.

Batten Extenders are designed to be installed onto standard battens.

ENERGY STAR version 7 certified windows are not mandatory. However, some builders and zoning districts may require the installation of ENERGY STAR certified windows. Additionally, homeowners may choose ENERGY STAR certified windows for energy savings as well as potential tax credits.

Yes. Cellular PVC is a thermoplastic polymer, which means it becomes pliable or bendable when exposed to certain temperatures, returning to a solid state when cool. Because of its nature, some cellular PVC profiles can be reheated and reformed; however, variations in batches, profile geometry, and density or weight of the profile mean some experimentation will be required to perfect this skill.

For best results, don’t bend any cellular PVC trim greater than 6” wide. 

New windows will help reduce your energy bill. You will also recoup about 70 to 80 percent of your window investment when it’s time to sell your home.

We do offer mouldings that are specially formulated for heat bending, but not all cellular PVC trim and mouldings apply. For example, Royal S4S Trimboard is not recommended for bending, but SurEdge and Precision Cut trim can be bent into a reasonable radius.

Like real slate, snow doesn’t want to stay on DaVinci roofs for long. In fact, snow tends to slide off DaVinci roofs all at once. Some homeowners love this feature because it doesn’t allow snow to continually build on their roof. However, in places where people, pets, or landscaping may get in the path of sliding snow, snow guards should be used. If there is a considerable amount of snow it could be quite dangerous. Snow guards are snow retention devices. When installed properly they keep the snow on the roof until it melts and comes off the roof in a more controlled manner.

Products do not experience moisture cycling so paint holds up better than on wood

Yes, Tapco tools are user-friendly and designed for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts, making them accessible for a variety of projects.

Various windows are available with grid options to give the appearance of multiple window panes; however, the glass is continuous to provide optimum efficiency and reduced maintenance. Grille options include Simulated Divided Lite, Grill Between Glass, and Contoured Grille.
