Honest answer: it varies a lot based on window size, type, and quality. On average, expect to pay $400-$800 per window installed for good-quality double-hung windows. Specialty windows like bays or bows cost more, sometimes $1,500-$3,000. Doors range from $1,500-$4,000 depending on the style and material.

Is It Time to Replace Your Windows?
Common Problems We Solve for North Georgia Homeowners
Here are the most common issues that bring homeowners to us. If any of these sound familiar, it's probably time for replacement windows:
Sky-High Energy Bills
If you're cranking the AC in summer or the heat in winter and your power bills keep climbing, your windows are likely the culprit. Old, drafty windows are basically throwing money out of your house. Modern energy-efficient windows can cut your heating and cooling costs by 25-30%. That's real money back in your pocket every month.
Condensation or Fog Between the Panes
When you see moisture or fog trapped between the glass layers, that means the seal has failed. You can't fix this - the window needs to be replaced. The good news? You don't always have to replace every window in your house, just the ones with failed seals.
Windows That Won't Stay Open (Or Won't Open at All)
Struggling with stuck windows, broken balances, or windows that slam shut? That's not just annoying - it's a safety issue, especially in a fire. Plus, if you can't open your windows, you're missing out on those perfect Georgia spring and fall days when you don't need the AC at all.
Rooms That Are Always Too Hot or Too Cold
You know that one room that's always freezing in winter or feels like an oven in summer? That's usually a window problem. Poor insulation, air leaks, or single-pane glass all contribute to uncomfortable rooms that are hard to climate control.
Fading Furniture and Carpets
UV rays coming through old windows will fade your furniture, carpets, and hardwood floors over time. New windows with Low-E glass block up to 99% of UV rays while still letting in plenty of natural light.
Visible Rot or Deterioration
If you've got wood frames that are rotting, peeling paint that never stays fixed, or frames that are starting to separate from the house, you're past the point of simple repairs. These issues only get worse and can lead to water damage inside your walls.
Outside Noise Driving You Crazy
Live near a busy road? Hear every car, lawnmower, and neighborhood dog? Modern double or triple-pane windows significantly reduce outside noise. Not total silence, but a noticeable improvement that makes your home more peaceful.
Types of Replacement Windows We Install
Not all windows are the same, and the right type depends on your home's style, your needs, and sometimes just what makes the most sense for the space. Here's what we typically install in North Georgia homes:
Double-Hung Windows
This is probably what you have now - both the top and bottom sections (sashes) slide up and down. They're the most common style in Georgia homes because they work well, they're easy to clean (most modern ones tilt in), and they fit the traditional look most houses around here have.
Casement Windows
These crank open like a door, swinging outward. They're great for spots where you can't reach a double-hung easily (like over the kitchen sink) or where you want maximum ventilation. They also seal really tight when closed, which is good for energy efficiency.
Sliding Windows
Slide open horizontally instead of vertically. These are popular in ranch-style homes and work well in rooms where you want a wider window but don't have much vertical wall space. Also a good choice for basements.
Bay and Bow Windows
These extend out from your house, creating extra space inside and a beautiful focal point outside. They're more expensive, but they really transform a room - great for dining areas or living rooms where you want to add character and light.
Picture Windows
These don't open - they're fixed glass designed to maximize your view and let in lots of light. If you've got a nice backyard view or want to bring in maximum natural light, picture windows are the way to go.
Garden Windows
A mini greenhouse that projects out from your house, usually installed over the kitchen sink. Perfect if you want to grow herbs or small plants indoors. They have glass on all sides and a glass top, plus built-in shelves.
We Also Install Replacement Doors
Your doors matter just as much as your windows - sometimes more, since a drafty or insecure entry door affects your whole house. Here's what we do:
Entry Doors
Your front door is both a security feature and a major part of your home's curb appeal. We install steel, fiberglass, and wood entry doors. We'll help you figure out which makes sense for your situation and budget.
Patio Doors
Sliding glass doors and French doors both work great for back patios and decks. Either way, modern patio doors are way more energy-efficient than what was installed 10-15 years ago.
Storm Doors
Adding a storm door protects your main entry door from weather and lets you open your door for ventilation without worrying about security or bugs. They also add an extra layer of insulation.
What Makes Us Different
We're not going to claim we're the only good window company in North Georgia - that would be silly. But here's what you can actually expect when you work with us:
Factory-Direct Pricing
We don't have a fancy showroom with expensive overhead. We order directly from the manufacturers and pass those savings on to you. On average, this saves customers 20-30% compared to the big-name companies with the TV commercials.
No High-Pressure Sales Tactics
No sitting through a three-hour presentation. No "special price today only if you sign right now." We give you the quote, answer your questions, and let you think about it. Most customers call us back within a week or two when they're ready to move forward.
Realistic Timelines
After you approve the quote, windows typically take 3-4 weeks to arrive (they're custom-made to fit your specific openings). Installation usually takes 1-2 days depending on how many windows we're replacing. We show up on time, protect your floors and furniture, install your windows, clean up completely, and haul away your old windows.
