While some homeowners may prefer to take a DIY approach to window replacement, many choose not to when they consider the cost vs. benefit of this approach. Professional installation ensures the proper permits are pulled and your windows are measured, ordered, and installed properly. For this reason, Windows of Wisconsin does not allow DIY installation of our products.
Our crews install one window at a time and are trained to do what they can to minimize heating/cooling loss. The energy savings from your new windows will recover any incremental energy costs incurred during their installation many times over during their lifetime.
