Ameristar Construction in Enterprise, NV | Ellsworth Contractors
We provide independent Ameristar window and construction service across Enterprise, Nevada, without the manufacturer-affiliation markup or the wait. What separates our Ameristar work here is that we’ve been pulling these builder-grade vinyl units apart since Enterprise’s master-planned subdivisions went up, so we know exactly which sashes warp on west-facing walls and which balance hardware snaps first. Ellsworth Contractors handles Ameristar window replacement, impact window installation, and full home additions from raw grading to final inspection. Call (888) 445-6077 for a free estimate.
Why Enterprise Residents Choose Us for Ameristar Service
Most contractors in Enterprise treat Ameristar windows as a commodity. We don’t, because we’ve watched how these specific units behave in this specific climate. Reed Calloway grew up in the Whitney neighborhood of Paradise and spent years framing, finishing, and problem-solving on job sites across this valley before running Ellsworth Contractors. He’s pulled enough Ameristar 22-Series sashes out of 2000s stucco homes to tell you within five minutes whether a window needs new balances or a full replacement.
We’re an independent contractor, not an Ameristar-authorized dealer or warranty provider, and we’re upfront about that. What you get instead is honest repair-versus-replace advice and parts logic that favors OEM Ameristar sashes, balances, and weatherstrip when the line is still supported. Build it right the first time or you’ll be back explaining why you didn’t.

Common Ameristar Construction Problems We Solve in Enterprise
- Warped and bowed vinyl sashes on south- and west-facing walls. Enterprise’s Mojave UV bakes these frames relentlessly. We regularly see 22-Series single-hungs with sashes so bowed they no longer meet the weatherstrip, which means dust intrusion and higher cooling loads from April through October.
- Crumbled weatherstripping and dried foam gaskets. Single-digit humidity shreds Ameristar’s factory weatherstrip within five to eight years here. When the wind kicks up off the Spring Mountain foothills, that gap is a dust funnel straight into your living room.
- Snapped spiral tilt-balance and pivot-shoe hardware on 20-series single-hungs. Enterprise dust is a fine alkaline grit that fouls tracks and accelerates wear on pivot shoes. We replace stretched or broken balances with OEM parts where available, and quality aftermarket tilt hardware when the sash is the only original component left worth saving.
- Pulled frame corners and failed weep-hole seals. The stucco-to-frame caulk degrades hard under desert UV, and once that bond fails, wind-driven rain and dust get behind the flange. We re-caulk, reset corners, and verify weep holes before calling a window sound.
- Fogged glass and failed insulated seals on Ameristar sliders. The 2100-series builder-grade sliders in 1990s and 2000s Enterprise homes lose their argon fill faster than premium lines. When the seal goes, the glass fogs, and the only real fix is new glazing or a full sash replacement.
Ameristar Service in Enterprise: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Enterprise sits inside the Southern Nevada Water Authority service area, and that fact shapes every window replacement and home addition in the 89139 ZIP more than most homeowners realize. Any project that adds glazing or changes exterior walls triggers SNWA-adjacent review for water-efficient landscape compliance and dust-control before final inspection. That means a window replacement isn’t just a glazing decision here, it’s a permit sequencing decision. If we’re pulling fourteen sun-bleached Ameristar frames off a two-story and adding a sunroom or extending a wall line, we’re also filing the grading and SWPPP documentation that Enterprise requires for even modest earthwork. Miss that step and the final inspection stalls. We don’t miss it, because we’ve been through this process on the same 1990s and 2000s stucco-on-frame stock that dominates Enterprise’s subdivisions.
Ameristar Models & Products We Service in Enterprise
Our crews work on the Ameristar by Ply Gem 22-Series vinyl single-hung windows, the 2100-Series builder-grade sliding windows, and the Windsor-style vinyl patio sliding doors that went into thousands of Enterprise homes between the mid-1990s and the late 2010s. We stock OEM Ameristar balances and weatherstrip for the Series 20/22 platform, and we keep quality aftermarket tilt-latch and pivot-shoe hardware on hand for older sashes where factory parts are no longer available. Enterprise turnaround is faster because we’re not ordering from a distributor in Phoenix every time a balance snaps. For broader Ameristar product support, see our Ameristar sales & service page.

AfterAmeristar Service Pricing in Enterprise
What you’ll pay depends on whether we’re repairing a handful of sashes or replacing every Ameristar unit on a south-facing elevation. Here are the ranges we quote in Enterprise:
| Service | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Window Replacement | $4,500 – $15,000 |
| Impact Window Installation | $8,000 – $25,000 |
| Home Addition | $45,000 – $130,000 |
Window replacement costs swing on glazing type, frame count, and whether we need to re-grade or re-flash openings. Impact window installation runs higher because the laminated glass and reinforced frames are heavier and require full-frame replacement, not sash-only swaps. A home addition in Enterprise also carries grading, dust-control, and utility-tie-in costs that remodel-only work doesn’t. Our free estimate walks you through the line items before we ever begin. Call (888) 445-6077 for exact numbers.

FAQs – Ameristar Construction in Enterprise
Yes, for the Series 20/22 platform we source OEM Ameristar sashes, balances, and weatherstrip directly, and we stock the most common balance and pivot-shoe hardware for fast Enterprise turnaround. When a 2003 sash is no longer supported by the factory, we match aftermarket tilt hardware that fits the original track profile. Call (888) 445-6077 and we’ll tell you what’s still available for your specific windows.
Enterprise is not in a hurricane zone, so impact windows aren’t code-required here. But many homeowners choose them for the security, noise reduction, and UV protection they provide on south- and west-facing elevations where Ameristar builder-grade vinyl frames are already failing from sun exposure. If your home backs up to open desert or a busy arterial, impact glazing is worth the added cost. We can quote both standard vinyl replacement and impact-rated units.
Any exterior wall change or earthwork in Enterprise requires a grading plan and SWPPP dust-control documentation before the city will sign off. If we’re pulling old Ameristar frames, replacing flashing, or adding square footage, we file that paperwork as part of the permit package, not as an afterthought. It’s the same hurdle every contractor in this ZIP faces, and it’s the one that stalls final inspections when it’s missed.
Dust-fouled tracks and worn pivot-shoe hardware are the usual culprits in Enterprise. Ameristar’s original weatherstrip dries out fast in single-digit humidity, and once it’s gone, fine alkaline dust works its way into the track and grinds the pivot shoes down. We clean and re-lubricate tracks, replace stretched balances with OEM parts, and re-weatherstrip the frame. If the sash is warped, no amount of track work fixes it, and replacement is the honest call. Call (888) 445-6077 for an assessment.
It can, if the replacement changes your exterior footprint, adds glazing, or alters drainage. Enterprise falls inside the Southern Nevada Water Authority service area, so window and addition projects that touch exterior walls often need SNWA-adjacent water-efficiency sign-off. We handle that review as part of the permit sequence, and we’ll tell you before we start whether your project will trigger it.
