Pella Certified Contractor
Factory-trained and certified by Pella to install their full line of windows and doors. Expert installation, enhanced warranties, and the energy efficiency your Colorado home needs.
What Pella Certified Means for You
Pella is one of America's most trusted window and door manufacturers, with over 95 years of innovation in energy efficiency, durability, and design. Only about 5% of contractors nationwide earn Pella's Certified Contractor status — a designation that ensures the people installing their products are trained to the same standards as the people who build them.
For homeowners, choosing a Pella Certified Contractor means your windows and doors are installed correctly the first time — with proper flashing, insulation, and sealing that maximizes energy performance and ensures your warranty stays intact.
Why Pella for Colorado?
Colorado's climate demands windows that can handle extreme temperature swings, intense UV exposure, and severe weather. Pella products are engineered for exactly these conditions:
- Energy Efficiency: Pella's Advanced Low-E insulating glass reduces heat transfer and blocks up to 83% of UV rays — keeping your home comfortable year-round and protecting furniture and flooring from fading at Colorado's high altitude.
- Extreme Temperature Performance: Denver temperatures can swing 50+ degrees in a single day. Pella windows are tested to perform from -40°F to 180°F, with weather-stripping and sealing systems that maintain their integrity through thousands of thermal cycles.
- Hail & Impact Resistance: Pella offers impact-rated glass options that withstand hail and wind-borne debris — a critical consideration in Colorado's Front Range hailstorm corridor.
- Noise Reduction: Triple-pane and laminated glass options significantly reduce exterior noise — ideal for homes near busy Denver metro roads or under flight paths.
- Material Options: Choose from wood (warmth and beauty), fiberglass (strength and low maintenance), or vinyl (value and efficiency) — each engineered for Colorado's demanding conditions.
Our Pella Installation Standards
- Proper Flashing & Waterproofing: We install pan flashing, head flashing, and flexible sealant at every opening per Pella's specifications to prevent water infiltration — the #1 cause of window-related damage.
- Insulation & Air Sealing: We use low-expansion foam and backer rod to insulate and air-seal the gap between the window frame and rough opening, maximizing the energy performance you're paying for.
- Level, Plumb & Square: Precise shimming and leveling ensures smooth operation of sashes, locks, and hardware — and prevents the binding and sticking that result from improper installation.

Pella Certification FAQ
What is a Pella Certified Contractor?
Pella's Certified Contractor program recognizes installers who have completed Pella's factory training, demonstrated consistent installation quality, and met their standards for customer satisfaction. It means our crews know how to install Pella windows and doors to the exact specifications that ensure proper performance and warranty coverage.
Why does it matter who installs my Pella windows?
Even the best windows underperform if installed incorrectly. Improper installation can cause air leaks, water infiltration, condensation, and premature hardware failure — and it can void your warranty. A Pella Certified Contractor has been trained on proper shimming, leveling, flashing, insulation, and sealing techniques specific to Pella products.
What Pella products do you install?
We install the full Pella product line including the Pella Lifestyle Series (wood), Pella Impervia (fiberglass), and Pella 250 Series (vinyl). We also install Pella entry doors, patio doors, and sliding doors. All products are available in a wide range of styles, colors, and hardware finishes.
How do Pella windows perform in Colorado's climate?
Pella windows are engineered for extreme climates. Their fiberglass and wood lines offer excellent insulation values, Low-E glass coatings reduce UV damage and heat transfer, and their weather-stripping systems handle Colorado's temperature swings from sub-zero winters to 90°+ summers. Pella's impact-rated options also provide hail protection.
