What's included

What a window project covers.

A proper window job is about the install as much as the glass. Here's what a typical scope from a pre-screened installer includes.

Measurement & assessment

An in-home measure of every opening, plus a check for rot, drafts, and whether you need a full-frame or insert replacement.

New windows

Vinyl, fiberglass, wood, or composite units in the style you choose — double-hung, casement, slider, bay, or picture.

Professional installation

Removal of the old units, proper flashing and insulation of the opening, and a level, square, weather-tight set.

Sealing & finishing

Interior and exterior caulking, trim, and cleanup so the new windows are airtight and finished on day one.

Common window projects

  • Whole-home replacement of old single-pane or drafty windows
  • Energy-efficient double- or triple-pane upgrades (low-E, argon-filled)
  • Single window or patio-door replacement after damage
  • Style changes — adding a bay, bow, or picture window
  • Storm or impact-rated windows for hurricane-prone regions
  • Egress windows for finished basements to meet code

How it works

Three quotes. No pressure. Free.

1

Tell us about your windows

How many windows, what style, and your zip code — that's most of it. It takes about two minutes.

2

We match you with up to three pros

We screen each window installer for active licensing, insurance, and service area before they contact you.

3

Compare quotes, hire when ready

Weigh products, warranties, and price side by side. There's no obligation and no cost to you.

How we pre-screen pros

Every installer is checked before they reach you.

We don't hand your details to just anyone. Here's what we verify before a window installer can be matched with your project.

Active state licensing

We confirm each installer holds the contractor or specialty license their state requires, and we re-check the network on a regular cycle.

Liability & workers' comp insurance

We verify general liability and, where required, workers' compensation — so any accident on your property isn't your liability.

Verifiable review history

We look for a traceable record of real customer reviews rather than a single unverified rating.

Local service area

We only match you with installers who actually work in your zip code, not a national lead desk.

Window questions

Honest answers, no fine print.

How much does it cost to replace one window?
A standard installed vinyl or fiberglass window typically runs $400 to $1,200, depending on size, style, and glass package. Premium wood, large picture, bay, or impact-rated windows cost more. Your matched pros will price your exact openings.
Are new windows worth the cost in energy savings?
Replacing old single-pane windows with double- or triple-pane low-E units reduces drafts and heating/cooling loss. Savings vary by climate and how leaky the old windows were, so treat efficiency as one benefit alongside comfort and noise reduction — not a guaranteed payback figure.
What's the difference between insert and full-frame replacement?
Insert (pocket) replacement reuses the existing frame and is faster and cheaper when the frame is sound. Full-frame replacement removes everything down to the rough opening — necessary if there's rot or you're changing the window size. A matched installer's measure will tell you which you need.
How long does a window replacement take?
A single window is usually swapped in under an hour. A whole-home project of 10–15 windows is typically done in one to two days, depending on access and whether any framing repair is needed.
Is the quote really free?
Yes. Homative is free for homeowners. Contractors pay us when they receive a qualified match — you never pay for a quote and you're never obligated to hire.
