Window Replacement & Installation Services
If you're getting ready to purchase new windows for your Charlotte home, you have the opportunity to replace your windows or fully install new ones.

Window Replacement in Charlotte, NC
Our window replacement services are designed to replace your existing windows that are outdated, inefficient, or damaged. The installation of replacement windows is simple and straightforward since the frame is already in place. Our team can replace practically all window types and models.
In Charlotte, the average cost for replacing a window is around $400-$600. However, the costs can vary based on numerous factors. The style, material, and size of the window will dictate how much window replacement services cost you.
Replacement windows are ideal for existing homes as opposed to new-construction windows. Since the window, trim, siding, and wall elements are interconnected, changing a single one of these elements, as you would with new-construction windows, results in all of them being altered in some way. This can result in damage to your home. To avoid damaging the surrounding walls during installation, replacement windows are the ideal solution.
When to Replace Windows
You should replace your windows when:
- The wall has already been built and must remain in place
- Your home isn't currently under construction
- You want to perform a one-for-one replacement of your current window
- You have a new-construction window that's able to be detached
If your situation doesn't fall under one of the four categories mentioned above, our window installation services may be preferable.

Window Installation for Charlotte Homeowners
New-construction windows are designed to be used alongside clear openings within the house that haven't been outfitted with siding or trim. These windows usually come with nailing or attachment fins that are positioned on the exterior of the window.
If you are building a new home or your existing home is undergoing extensive renovations, a new-construction window may be right for you.
New-construction windows can cost you anywhere from $100-$1,000, depending on the type of window you choose as well as the selected material.
When to Install Windows
You should install new windows when:
- You're constructing a new home
- You're making an addition to your home
- A wall has been heavily damaged and requires substantial repair work
As mentioned above, new-construction windows are used when undergoing comprehensive renovations or when constructing a new home from scratch. These windows work best when house siding has yet to be installed on the exterior of the home.

Window Installation & Replacement FAQs
How long does window installation take?
Windows installations can take around 30 minutes per window, though it will usually take anywhere from 2-7 weeks for the windows to arrive after they’ve been ordered.
Why should I hire a professional window contractor?
You should hire a professional to replace or install new windows because of the possibility that something could go wrong. If the window is installed incorrectly, it could become dislodged or damaged. There's also a good chance that the frame could become damaged, which would be costly to repair. If you haven't installed windows yourself in the past, the process could be arduous and time-consuming. By contacting professionals like ours, you can be confident that your windows will be installed with care and in an efficient manner.
How long will new windows last?
Whether you select to have windows replaced or installed, your new windows should last anywhere from 15-40 years. Keep in mind, however, that it's always possible that an outside factor could cause your windows to become damaged, which may reduce the timeline. Windows tend to last around 15-20 years when exposed to harsh sunlight on a consistent basis.
