FAQ

Find answers to the most common questions about windows.

Windows

A single window takes 1–2 hours; a full-house replacement may take 1–3 days, depending on the number of windows.

1–2 doors: 4–8 hours | Single window: 1–2 hours | Whole-house replacements: 1–3 days.

Full-frame replaces the entire window unit including frame (better for damaged frames), while pocket installation inserts new windows into existing frames (faster/cheaper but less thorough).

Most homes take 1-3 days total. Individual windows take about 30-60 minutes each for experienced installers. Complex jobs or whole-house replacements may take up to a week.
