Windows spanning from a 1907 incorporation onward
Pooler incorporated as a town on October 25, 1907 with 337 residents, growing from a Central of Georgia Railroad stop first named for surveyor Captain Robert William Pooler in 1838. Housing from that early-1900s incorporation period and the building-lot giveaways that followed in 1883 carries openings sized to early-20th-century norms, well before today's standardized manufacturing.
What that means for a window project
A window replacement on one of Pooler's early-1900s-era properties should budget for non-standard openings that predate modern manufacturing sizes, while homes built during Pooler's later 20th-century growth are more likely to match off-the-shelf dimensions. Knowing which era a specific Pooler property falls into changes the sourcing plan more than almost any other factor.

What to share for a Pooler inquiry
For Pooler, describe the number and location of openings, the property's construction era if known, current condition, prior replacement history, and access for measuring. Confirm a provider's timeline and materials directly, since availability varies.
Wind-borne-debris code covers Pooler too
Pooler falls inside Chatham County's coastal wind-borne-debris zone along with the rest of the service area, so a full window replacement near grade needs impact-rated glazing under the state building code regardless of how far inland the property sits from Tybee Island's open coastline.
