What this service covers
Scheduleprofessor Windows & Siding does not install windows. Providers in our network do. They handle replacement, not repairs. Most want a project of at least two windows. One window with a small leak may not fit. Two or more tired windows usually do.
Why the two-window minimum
A provider has to bring ladders, tools, and glass to your door. One window rarely makes that trip worthwhile. Two or more makes it practical. It also helps your home look matched on each wall.
Signs it's time to replace
These are listed from most urgent to least. Start at the top.
Water getting in
Wet sills, stained drywall, or damp trim near a window mean water has found a path. Act first on this one. Moisture feeds mold and rot, and humid air speeds both up.
Cracked or loose glass
Cracks let in rain, bugs, and hot air. They also weaken the pane. Plastic and tape can cover a gap for a short time. Treat that as a stopgap only.
Fogged glass
Fog or droplets between the panes mean the seal has failed. The window still opens, but it insulates less. Fogging often shows up on sun-facing walls first.
Drafts and high cooling bills
If the AC runs all day and rooms by the windows stay warm, old glass may be part of the cause. Hold your hand near the frame. Feel for moving air.
Frames that stick, swell, or soften
Press a screwdriver tip into a wood frame. If it sinks in, the wood is soft. Swollen frames that will not lock are common in damp air.
Insert vs. full-frame replacement
An insert window fits inside your existing frame. It is quicker and leaves trim and siding alone. It works when the frame is solid.
A full-frame job removes everything down to the rough opening. It is needed when the frame is rotted or water got behind the trim. It costs more, but it fixes hidden damage. The provider checks the frame and tells you which one you need.
Choosing materials and styles
- Vinyl: common, low upkeep, and fine in humid air.
- Fiberglass: strong and stable when temperatures swing.
- Aluminum: slim and tough. Often paired with impact-rated glass.
- Wood: warm look, but it needs paint and care. Damp air is hard on it.
For style, double-hung windows are familiar. Casements seal tight and open wide. Sliders suit wide openings. Picture windows let in light and do not open.
Energy efficient windows
Look for double-pane glass, a low-E coating, and gas fill between the panes. In a hot climate, that coating helps keep the sun's heat out. Check the ratings on the label. Savings vary by home.
Storm-ready glass
Hurricane season runs June to November, and summer storms roll in almost daily. Ask about impact-rated glass and frames. Ask if your area needs a permit or a certain rating. Local codes differ.
What you can do yourself
You can help, and it speeds things up.
- Photograph each problem window.
- Note which rooms and walls are affected.
- Check for soft wood and stains.
- Clear furniture and take down blinds before install day.
- Keep pets away from the work area.
What needs a pro
Removal, leveling, flashing, sealing, and lifting heavy glass need pro skills and tools. A small gap in the seal lets water into the wall for years. Upper-floor windows add ladder risk. Leave these steps to the provider.
What to expect on install day
The provider arrives within the window of time you agreed on and covers floors. Old windows come out. The new unit goes in, gets checked for square, and is sealed and insulated. Trim goes back on, and the area is cleaned. Many projects take a day or two, depending on the number of windows.
Condos, block homes, and older homes
Concrete block homes need the right anchors and sealant at the opening. Many subdivisions built from the 1970s to the 2000s still have single-pane aluminum frames. Odd sizes may need custom orders and longer lead times.
In a condo, ask your board what is allowed before you order. Some require a set color or style. In homes built before 1978, ask how the provider handles old paint safely.

Window Replacement FAQ
How do I know if I need new windows or just a repair?
Fogged glass, soft frames, water stains, and drafts usually point to replacement. This service covers replacement only, not repairs, and most providers want at least two windows per project.
How long does window replacement take?
Many projects take a day or two, depending on how many windows you have. Custom or impact-rated windows can take longer to order. The provider will give you a timeline with the written quote.
Will new windows lower my energy bills?
Energy efficient windows with double panes and low-E glass can reduce heat gain and help your AC work less. Savings vary by home, window size, and sun exposure, so ask the provider what to expect.
