Before you replace your windows and doors, check if they can be repaired. If they can’t, we can help you find a quality, but cost-effective, replacement that matches the aesthetic of your home.
When the repair cost exceeds about 50% of the replacement cost, it’s generally a red flag. At that point, the repair might not offer enough added value to justify the expense, and you might be better off replacing the unit altogether. This 50% threshold is a common rule of thumb, indicating that if you’re spending more than half the price of a new window or door on repairs, you’re likely not getting a durable, cost-effective fix. In addition, a repair-heavy option might lead to more frequent issues down the line, while a new installation typically provides better energy efficiency, improved performance, and a longer lifespan.
In addition to helping homeowners decide whether to repair or replace, we also provide specialized installation services especially for small volume or custom projects. For these tailored installs, we understand that unique challenges can affect both cost and timelines.
