How Long Does Window Replacement Take?

Key takeaways

  • Ordering usually takes longer than installing
  • Installation often takes about a day for a handful of windows
  • Repairs and custom items add time

Before the install

After measuring and choosing, windows are made to order, and that lead time is usually the longest part of the project. Custom sizes, colors and shapes take longer.

We give you an honest estimate when you order.

Install day

A skilled crew can often replace a handful of windows in a day, depending on the type and access. Whole-house projects take several days, and bays, bows and doors take longer per opening.

Our Window Counter estimates the days for your house.

What can add time

Rot or water damage found when a window comes out, difficult access, weather and special orders can all stretch the schedule. We keep you informed and protect your home if the weather turns.

Quick answers

Can I stay in the house during the work?

Yes. We protect floors and keep the work area tidy, and you will hear some noise.

Will you leave openings uncovered overnight?

We aim to finish each opening the same day and secure any opening that has to wait.
