What You Get With Every Installation

Every window replacement includes proper insulation around the frame, professional caulking, and interior trim work to match your existing style. We don’t just swap out the window and leave you with gaps or unfinished edges.

You receive manufacturer warranties plus our workmanship guarantee. Our certifications with major manufacturers like Owens Corning mean you get enhanced warranty coverage that many contractors can’t offer.

If you’re planning other exterior work like siding or roofing, we coordinate everything so your home’s weather barrier works as a complete system. Columbia Heights winters demand that level of attention to detail.

Most window replacement projects take one to two days depending on the number of windows and any complications we encounter. We can typically replace 8-12 windows in a single day if the openings are standard sizes and in good condition. Larger projects or homes requiring custom windows may take longer. We always give you a realistic timeline upfront and stick to it. Weather can occasionally delay exterior work, but we communicate any changes immediately and reschedule as soon as conditions allow.
Double or triple-pane windows with low-E coatings perform best in Columbia Heights’ climate. The multiple panes create insulating air spaces, while low-E coatings reflect heat back into your home during winter. Look for windows with U-factors of 0.30 or lower – this measures how well they prevent heat loss. Vinyl or fiberglass frames handle Minnesota’s temperature swings better than wood, which can warp, or aluminum, which conducts cold. We help you choose windows that match your budget while delivering real energy savings.
Energy savings depend on what you’re replacing and your home’s size, but most Columbia Heights homeowners see 10-25% reductions in heating costs after window replacement. Older single-pane windows or windows with broken seals waste the most energy. Homes built before 1980 typically see the biggest improvements. Your actual savings also depend on your heating system efficiency and how well your home is insulated overall. We can estimate potential savings based on your current windows during our initial consultation.
Most window replacements in Columbia Heights don’t require permits when you’re replacing existing windows with similar sizes. However, if we’re changing window sizes, adding new windows, or doing structural modifications, permits are necessary. We handle all permit applications and inspections when required – it’s included in our service. We know Columbia Heights building codes and work with the city regularly, so there are no surprises or delays. You don’t need to worry about the paperwork or inspection scheduling.
We inspect the window openings before starting and let you know about any potential issues we see. Sometimes removing old windows reveals water damage, rotted framing, or insulation problems that weren’t visible beforehand. When this happens, we stop work, show you exactly what we found, and explain your options for repair. We can handle most structural repairs in-house since we’re a full exterior renovation company. You get a clear estimate for any additional work before we proceed – no surprise bills.
Yes, we work with multiple manufacturers that offer extensive style and color options to match your home’s architecture.

We also offer design consultation services to help you visualize different options before making decisions. Our goal is new windows that improve your home’s performance while maintaining or enhancing its appearance from both inside and outside.
