Here's What You Can Expect
Every consultation is handled by someone who actually understands windows and their installation, not an inexperienced salesperson working from a script.

Our Process
Our Window Replacement and Installation Process
Michigan winters don't forgive failing seals or poor installs, and if you've already tried getting this fixed once, you know how frustrating it is to deal with contractors who show up late, skip the details, or leave you hanging mid-job.
It doesn't have to be like that.
STEP 1: Free Consultation
An experienced technician comes to your home, evaluates your windows, takes measurements, and walks you through your options, no pressure. Most consultations take less than an hour. We'll talk through your goals (energy efficiency, aesthetics, budget) and give you our honest take. That includes telling you when a less expensive option makes just as much sense as a premium one.
Step 2: Custom Order & Timeline
All windows are made to fit your exact measurements, nothing off a shelf, so windows typically take 4–6 weeks. We'll send you an update when they're ordered and again once we have a ship date, so we can lock in your install day.
Step 3: Installation Day
Before we touch anything, we protect your floors, furniture, and landscaping using drop cloths, runners, plastic sheeting, and boot covers.
Then we remove the old units, inspect the opening for rot or moisture damage, and install your new windows with proper sealing and insulation.
After that, we trim and seal inside and out, clean up completely, and do a walk-through with you before we leave, and we take all the debris with us.
When Should You Replace Your Double Hung Windows?
Even well-built windows eventually begin to show signs of wear.
Common signs it may be time for replacement include:
- Windows that are difficult to open or close
- Sashes that no longer stay open properly
- Drafts around the window frame
- Condensation between panes of glass
- Locks that no longer function correctly
- Rising heating and cooling costs
- Visible signs of wear or deterioration
Replacing aging double hung windows can improve comfort, efficiency, and functionality while maintaining the classic appearance homeowners appreciate.
