You’ve glanced around your home for the first time and are now ready to pull the trigger. It’s time for new windows!
Maybe your old double-pane windows are foggy, drafty, or just plain worn out. But as excited as you are to upgrade finally, there’s one big question lingering:
How long does a complete home window replacement actually take?
At Supreme Windows, we hear that question all the time. The good news? Replacing every window in your home doesn’t take as long as most people imagine. After all, our goal is to place windows you can love and enjoy as quickly as possible. Let’s walk you through what to expect, from the first measurement to the final cleanup.
Step 1: The Pre-Installation Phase
Before we ever show up with a single window, there’s prep work to do, and that’s what takes the most time.
After your consultation, our team measures every opening precisely. Those measurements are sent to our manufacturer, where your windows are custom-built to fit your home exactly. This process can take a few weeks, depending on your window style, materials, and the season.
The typical timeline for window making and scheduling is 4–6 weeks from order to installation.
Step 2: Installation Day
This is where most homeowners get nervous! After all, no one wants their house wide open for hours, especially during a Texas heat wave. But here’s the thing: your home is never exposed all at once.
Our crew replaces windows one at a time. As soon as an old window comes out, the new one goes in. Each window usually takes 30 to 60 minutes to remove, install, seal, and finish.
For an average-sized home with 10 to 20 windows, that means a complete replacement typically takes one to two days. Larger or more complex homes might take a little longer, but our team plans the job carefully so you’re never left waiting or wondering.
Step 3: Cleanup and Quality Check
Once the installation’s done, we don’t just pack up and leave. We clean every work area, dispose of your old windows, and make sure your new ones open, close, and lock properly.
Then we do a final walkthrough with you, so you can see, test, and fall in love with your new view before we call the job complete.
Does the Season Affect Installation Time?
Texas weather can throw a few curveballs with scorching summers, cool winters, or the occasional storm. But the truth is, we install windows year-round.
The time of year doesn’t change how long it takes to replace your windows; it just affects how quickly you can get on the schedule. Spring and summer window replacements tend to book fast, while fall and winter offer more flexibility.
No matter when you schedule, we’ll make sure your home stays comfortable and secure throughout the process.
What You Can Do to Help Things Go Smoothly
A few small steps can make installation day fly by:
- Move furniture or décor away from your windows.
- Take down blinds or curtains.
- Keep pets in a separate room while work is underway.
- Make sure we have clear access to every window, inside and out.
That’s it! When it comes to new windows with us, there is no major prep required. We handle the heavy lifting.
