Exeter Window Installation Company

We Know Connecticut Homes

We’ve been installing windows in Connecticut homes for years. We understand how New England weather tests every seal, every frame, and every installation detail.

Most of the homes we work on in Exeter were built between the 1960s and 1980s. The original windows have done their job, but they’re not built for today’s energy standards. We specialize in retrofitting these homes with modern, efficient windows that fit properly and perform reliably.

We’re licensed, insured, and we stand behind our work. When we install your windows, they’re installed right the first time.

Professional Window Installation Process

Here's How We Handle Your Installation

First, we measure your existing windows and assess your home’s specific needs. Every house is different, especially older homes where standard sizes don’t always apply. We take precise measurements and note any structural considerations.

Next, we order your windows and schedule installation around your timeline. We protect your home’s interior, remove old windows carefully, and prep each opening. Proper installation means checking the frame, ensuring level and square installation, and sealing everything correctly.

Finally, we test each window’s operation, clean up completely, and walk through the installation with you. You’ll know how to operate and maintain your new windows, and you’ll have all warranty information in hand. The whole process typically takes one to two days depending on the number of windows.

What's Included in Your Installation

Your window installation includes complete removal of old windows, proper disposal, and professional installation of your new windows with full weatherproofing. We handle all the details that make the difference between windows that perform and windows that cause problems later.

We install double-hung, casement, sliding, and specialty windows. Each installation includes proper insulation around the frame, exterior caulking, interior trim work, and cleanup. We work with quality manufacturers that offer solid warranties on both the windows and our installation work.

Many Exeter homeowners are surprised by how much better their homes feel after proper window installation. The difference isn’t just the windows themselves – it’s the professional installation that creates a real thermal barrier and eliminates air infiltration.

How much does window replacement cost in Exeter, CT?

Window replacement costs vary based on window size, style, and your home’s specific requirements. Most Exeter homeowners invest between $400-800 per window for quality replacement windows with professional installation. The exact cost depends on factors like window type, frame material, and any structural modifications needed for older homes. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Many homeowners find the energy savings help offset the investment over time, especially with Connecticut’s heating and cooling costs.

How long does window installation take?

Most residential window installations take one to two days depending on the number of windows and your home’s specific requirements. We can typically install 8-12 windows per day in straightforward situations. Older homes sometimes need additional prep work or custom fitting, which can extend the timeline. We schedule installations to minimize disruption to your daily routine and always protect your home’s interior during the work. Weather can affect exterior work, so we plan installations during suitable conditions to ensure proper sealing and finishing.

What type of windows work best for Connecticut weather?

Double-hung and casement windows with low-E glass and quality weatherstripping perform best in Connecticut’s climate. Vinyl and fiberglass frames handle temperature fluctuations better than wood and require less maintenance. Look for windows with good insulation ratings – this matters more than you might think with our cold winters and humid summers. We recommend windows with multi-point locking systems for better security and weather sealing. The key is proper installation with adequate insulation around the frame, which prevents air infiltration regardless of window type.

Do you handle permits for window replacement?

Most window replacements in Exeter don’t require permits when you’re replacing existing windows with similar sizes and styles. However, if structural changes are needed or if you’re changing window sizes significantly, permits may be required. We’re familiar with local requirements and will let you know if permits are necessary for your specific project. When permits are needed, we can help guide you through the process or handle the paperwork if you prefer. It’s always better to check requirements upfront rather than deal with issues later.

How do I know if my windows need replacement?

You’ll usually notice drafts around window frames, condensation between glass panes, or difficulty opening and closing windows. High energy bills often indicate poor window efficiency, especially if some rooms are consistently uncomfortable. Visible damage like rotting frames, broken seals, or cracked glass obviously needs attention. Many homeowners in Exeter are dealing with original windows from the 1960s-1980s that have simply reached the end of their useful life. If you’re using plastic sheeting, heavy curtains, or constantly adjusting the thermostat to compensate for problem windows, replacement usually makes financial sense.

What warranty comes with new window installation?

Quality windows typically come with manufacturer warranties ranging from 10-20 years on materials, with lifetime warranties available on some premium options. Our installation work is also warranted to ensure proper performance and weatherproofing. Warranty terms vary by manufacturer and window type, so we’ll explain exactly what’s covered before you make any decisions. Most warranties cover glass breakage, seal failure, and hardware issues. Keep in mind that warranty coverage often depends on proper installation, which is why choosing experienced installers matters as much as choosing quality windows.
