Your energy bills drop by an average of 12% when you upgrade to properly installed, energy-efficient windows. No more fighting with windows that won’t open or close. No more condensation fogging up your view. No more cold drafts making certain rooms unbearable in winter.
You get windows that actually insulate your home, reduce outside noise, and add real value to your property. With Rye’s older housing stock—most homes built around 1956—upgrading your windows isn’t just about looks. It’s about making your home work better for how you live today.
The right windows, installed correctly, transform how your home feels year-round. Winters become more comfortable without cranking up the heat. Summers stay cooler without overworking your AC. And you stop worrying about whether your windows will fail when you need them most.
We’ve been serving Rye and the surrounding Westchester area as residential and commercial roofing and waterproofing specialists. We understand what Rye homeowners face—the coastal weather patterns, the mix of historic and modern homes, the need for windows that perform in both brutal winters and muggy summers.
We’re not a national chain that treats every job the same. We know Rye’s neighborhoods, from the waterfront properties near Playland to the family homes throughout the community. Our team has worked on everything from vintage colonials to contemporary builds, and we understand what each type of home needs.
When you call us, you’re working with contractors who live and work in this area. We stand behind our work because we’re part of this community, and our reputation matters here.
We start with a consultation at your home to assess your current windows and understand what you need. No high-pressure sales pitch—just an honest evaluation of what’s working, what isn’t, and what your best options are given your home’s age, style, and your budget.
Once you decide to move forward, we handle the ordering and scheduling. We measure precisely because even small errors cause big problems later. Our installation crews are experienced with Rye’s housing styles, from older homes that need careful handling to newer construction.
Installation day means protecting your home and belongings while we work efficiently to minimize disruption. We remove old windows carefully, install new ones properly, and clean up completely. You get a walkthrough to make sure everything works perfectly before we consider the job done.

We install all major window types: double-hung, casement, sliding, bay, bow, and picture windows. Materials include vinyl, wood, aluminum, and fiberglass—whatever works best for your home and budget. Every installation includes proper sealing, insulation, and weatherproofing designed for Rye’s climate.
For Rye homeowners, energy efficiency matters. Coastal weather means your windows face salt air, strong winds, and temperature swings. We install windows rated for these conditions, with Low-E coatings and argon gas insulation that actually reduce your utility bills.
Our service includes removal and disposal of old windows, complete installation with proper flashing and sealing, and cleanup. We also handle any minor trim work needed to make everything look finished. You get windows that work properly from day one, backed by manufacturer warranties and our commitment to quality installation.
Window installation in Rye typically ranges from $290 to $450 per window, depending on the size, style, and material you choose. Vinyl windows are the most budget-friendly option, while wood and composite materials cost more but offer different benefits.
The total project cost depends on how many windows you’re replacing and whether you need full-frame replacement or insert installation. Full-frame replacement costs more but gives you a completely fresh start, especially important in older Rye homes where the existing frames might be damaged.
We provide upfront pricing with no surprises. During your consultation, we’ll give you exact costs based on your specific windows and home, so you can make an informed decision without any pressure.
Early fall is ideal for window installation in Rye. The weather is mild, which makes installation easier and allows new windows to settle properly before winter hits. You avoid the extreme temperatures of summer and winter that can complicate installation.
Spring is also good, but you’ll want to get scheduled early since that’s when many homeowners start thinking about home improvements. We can install windows year-round, but fall gives you the best conditions and lets you enjoy the energy savings through the heating season.
If you need emergency window replacement due to damage, we work in all weather conditions. But for planned upgrades, timing your installation for fall means better working conditions and immediate benefits when you need them most.
Most window replacements in Rye don’t require permits if you’re replacing existing windows with similar sizes and styles. This includes standard insert installations where you’re keeping the existing frame and just updating the window itself.
You typically need permits for full-frame replacement that changes the window opening size, or if you’re adding new windows where none existed before. Historic district properties may have additional requirements, and we can help you navigate those regulations.
We handle permit applications when they’re required, so you don’t have to deal with the paperwork. Our experience with Rye’s building department means we know exactly what’s needed and can get approvals quickly.
Most single-window installations take 30 to 60 minutes once we’re set up. A typical whole-house project with 10-15 windows usually takes one to two days, depending on the complexity and whether we’re doing insert or full-frame replacement.
Older Rye homes sometimes present challenges that can extend installation time. We might discover rotted framing that needs repair, or encounter original construction details that require careful handling. We always build some buffer time into our schedule.
The timeline from order to installation varies based on the windows you choose and current demand. Custom windows take longer than standard sizes. We’ll give you realistic timeframes upfront and keep you updated if anything changes.
Vinyl windows are popular in Rye because they handle the coastal environment well, require minimal maintenance, and offer good insulation at a reasonable price. They won’t rot, warp, or need painting, which matters in an area with salt air and weather extremes.
Wood windows offer classic looks that work well in Rye’s historic neighborhoods, but they require more maintenance. Composite materials like fiberglass give you the appearance of wood with better durability and less upkeep.
For energy efficiency, focus on Low-E coatings and argon gas fill rather than just the frame material. These features make the biggest difference in your comfort and energy bills, regardless of whether you choose vinyl, wood, or composite frames.
Yes, we provide warranties on both the windows themselves and our installation work. Manufacturer warranties vary by brand and material—typically 10-20 years for the window components and sometimes lifetime warranties on certain parts.
Our installation warranty covers the workmanship for the first year, including proper sealing, operation, and weatherproofing. If anything isn’t working correctly due to installation issues, we’ll fix it at no charge.
We also help you understand and maintain your manufacturer warranties. This includes proper registration, maintenance requirements, and what’s covered if problems develop. Good warranties only matter if you can actually use them when needed.
