Questions About Window Replacement

How long does it take to replace windows?

For most homes, we can install 5-8 windows per day with our crew. So figure a day or two for an average job. Each window takes about 45 minutes to install properly. Weather can slow things down, but we've got temporary covers to work around all but the worst downpours. If you're replacing all the windows in your house, we'll typically need 2-3 days total, depending on how many you have.

Will new windows really save me money on energy bills?

Short answer: yes, especially if your current windows are old or single-pane. Most homeowners see somewhere between 15-25% savings on their heating and cooling after installing good quality, properly sealed windows. The actual amount varies based on your current windows, your local climate, and which replacement windows you choose. Just make sure they're properly installed - even the best windows won't save energy if they're put in wrong.

What's the difference between full-frame and pocket installation?

Full-frame means we tear everything out down to the rough opening - old window, frame, trim, everything. It costs more but lets us address any hidden damage. Pocket installation (sometimes called insert or retrofit) keeps your existing frame and just swaps out the window itself. It's faster and cheaper but only works if your current frames are in good shape. For older homes, I usually recommend full-frame to avoid surprises down the road.

Comparing Window Materials and Energy Efficiency

Average Window Replacement Costs in Wisconsin by City

Milwaukee

The humidity from Lake Michigan combined with temperature fluctuations creates unique demands:

  • Condensation between panes indicating seal failures
  • Water staining around frames showing leakage during driving rains
  • Mold growth on window sills and surrounding walls
  • Wood rot in frames, especially in older Kenosha neighborhoods
  • Cloudy glass that can’t be cleaned, revealing moisture between panes

Kenosha’s weather extremes expose inefficient windows:

  • Cold drafts during Kenosha’s bitter winter winds
  • Uncomfortable heat gain during summer months
  • Skyrocketing heating bills from December through March
  • Air conditioning struggles during humid Kenosha summers
  • Temperature differences between rooms based on window exposure

Years of Kenosha’s weather extremes take their toll:

  • Windows that stick when opening or closing
  • Broken hardware that compromises security
  • Warped frames that no longer seal properly
  • Cracked glass from seasonal expansion and contraction
  • Painted-shut windows that create safety hazards
