Twin Cities #1 Window and Door Replacement Experts

Most of the window replacement projects we do in the Twin Cities fall between $15k–$40k.

Smaller jobs — like replacing 3–5 standard vinyl windows — usually start around $5k–$10k.
Larger projects — full-home replacements, custom sizes, or premium materials — can be $50k+.

After a quick call and a few photos, we’ll give you a clear ballpark range before anyone comes to your home, so you can see if it fits your budget with zero pressure.

In simple terms: wood looks better upfront, vinyl costs less over time.

Wood windows (pine, oak, or clad wood): higher initial price, need painting or sealing every 10-15 years, can swell, rot, or peel if neglected, typically last 20-25 years with good care.

Vinyl windows: lower upfront cost, no painting or sealing, resist rot and moisture, very energy-efficient, and can last 25+ years with basic cleaning.

During your consultation, we’ll show you good / better / best options in both materials so you can see side-by-side how the look, maintenance, and price compare.

Our job is to make this simple:

1. Phone / virtual consult to talk through your ideas, budget, and timeline.
2. On‑site visit & measurements so we can design to your exact space.
3. Design & proposal with a clear scope, price, and options.
4. Permits & HOA approvals handled by our team.
5. Install phase where our crew completes the project and keeps your home tidy.
6. Final walkthrough to make sure everything looks and functions exactly how you expected.

Most projects move from first call to completed in about 6-8 weeks, depending on design and permits.

In most cities, permits typically take about 2-3 weeks once plans are submitted. Some projects are faster, more complex designs can take a bit longer.

On the other hand, most windows and doors are custom ordered and take 4-6 weeks to arrive.

We handle all drawings, paperwork, and back‑and‑forth with the city/HOA for you, and we keep you updated so you’re never wondering where things stand. Once permits are approved, we schedule your start date and lock it in.
