You know that feeling when winter hits and your house feels like an icebox despite cranking the heat. Or when summer arrives and your AC runs constantly but rooms stay stuffy. That’s what happens when your windows aren’t doing their job.
New energy-efficient windows change everything. Your home stays consistently comfortable without the constant battle against drafts and temperature swings. You’ll notice the difference immediately—no more cold spots near windows, no more condensation issues, and definitely no more cringing when the utility bill arrives.
The best part? You’re not just solving today’s comfort problems. You’re making an investment that pays you back month after month through lower energy costs, while protecting your furniture and floors from UV damage that fades and deteriorates your belongings over time.
We’ve been serving Yonkers homeowners for years, and we understand what your home faces. Westchester County’s harsh winters and humid summers put serious demands on your windows—demands that cheap installations simply can’t handle.
We’re not the fly-by-night contractors who show up, install whatever’s cheapest, and disappear. Our team knows Yonkers neighborhoods, from the historic homes near Getty Square to the newer developments in Riverdale. We’ve seen what works in our climate and what fails after the first hard winter.
When you work with us, you’re working with local professionals who have to look our neighbors in the eye. That’s why we only install windows that we’d put in our own homes, backed by warranties that actually mean something when you need them.
We start with a free consultation at your home. No high-pressure sales tactics—just an honest assessment of what you need and what it’ll cost. We measure every opening, discuss your goals, and explain your options in plain English.
Once you’re ready to move forward, we handle the permits and scheduling. Our installation team arrives on time, protects your home’s interior, and removes your old windows carefully. Each new window gets properly sealed and insulated—the details that separate professional installation from amateur work.
We clean up completely when we’re done. No debris left behind, no damage to your landscaping. Just new windows that work exactly as they should, with a walkthrough to make sure you’re completely satisfied before we consider the job finished.

Every window installation includes professional measurement, custom fitting, and complete weatherization. We use high-performance windows designed for our climate—double or triple-pane glass with low-E coatings and argon gas fills that actually make a difference in your energy bills.
In Yonkers, where winter heating costs can make or break your budget, we focus on windows that perform when it matters. Our vinyl and fiberglass options withstand temperature extremes without warping or failing. Wood windows get proper treatment to handle our humidity levels.
You’ll receive a detailed warranty covering both materials and installation work. We also provide maintenance guidance specific to Yonkers weather patterns—like how to handle the ice storms that can stress window seals and when to check for air leaks after our seasonal temperature swings.
Most Yonkers homeowners see 20-40% reductions in heating and cooling costs after window replacement, which typically translates to $200-400 in annual savings depending on your home’s size and current windows. The savings come from eliminating drafts, improving insulation, and reducing the workload on your HVAC system.
Older single-pane windows are especially costly in our climate. During Westchester County’s cold winters, these windows lose heat constantly, forcing your furnace to work overtime. In summer, they let heat pour in, making your AC struggle to keep up.
Energy-efficient windows with low-E coatings and proper sealing create a thermal barrier that keeps conditioned air where it belongs—inside your home. The investment typically pays for itself within 7-10 years through energy savings alone, not counting the increased comfort and home value.
Yonkers weather demands windows that can handle both temperature extremes and high humidity. Vinyl and fiberglass frames perform best here because they don’t expand and contract like wood or aluminum, maintaining their seals through our seasonal changes.
For glass, double-pane is the minimum, but triple-pane provides better insulation for homes with high energy costs. Low-E coatings are essential—they reflect heat in summer while letting warming sunlight through in winter. Argon gas fills between panes add extra insulation value.
Wood windows can work beautifully in Yonkers, especially in historic neighborhoods, but they require proper treatment and maintenance to handle our humidity levels. We recommend composite or clad wood options that give you the appearance with better weather resistance.
Most single-family homes in Yonkers take 1-3 days for complete window installation, depending on the number of windows and any custom sizing required. We typically install 8-12 windows per day with a full crew.
The timeline depends on your home’s specific needs. Older Yonkers homes sometimes require additional prep work if the existing frames need repair or if we discover structural issues. Historic homes may need special permits or custom windows that add time to the project.
We schedule installations during favorable weather when possible, since Yonkers weather can be unpredictable. If conditions turn bad mid-project, we’ll secure your home completely and resume as soon as it’s safe to do quality work. Rushing through installation to meet arbitrary deadlines never results in windows that perform properly long-term.
Most window replacements in Yonkers don’t require permits if you’re replacing existing windows with similar-sized units. However, if you’re changing window sizes, adding new openings, or working on a historic property, permits are typically required.
We handle all permit applications and inspections when needed. Yonkers Building Department has specific requirements for window installations, especially regarding energy efficiency standards and historic district compliance. Trying to navigate this yourself often leads to delays and complications.
Even when permits aren’t required, professional installation ensures your windows meet local building codes and energy standards. This matters for insurance coverage and future home sales. Buyers and appraisers look for properly installed windows with appropriate documentation, especially in a market like Yonkers where energy efficiency is increasingly important.
We provide comprehensive warranties covering both materials and installation workmanship. Window manufacturers typically offer 15-20 year warranties on glass and hardware, with some providing lifetime coverage on frames. Our installation warranty covers labor and any issues related to our work for a minimum of 5 years.
This means if you experience air leaks, water infiltration, or installation-related problems, we’ll return to fix them at no charge. We also provide ongoing support for warranty claims with manufacturers, which can be complicated to navigate on your own.
The key difference between our warranties and others is that we’ll actually be here to honor them. We’re local to Yonkers, not a national company that might disappear or refer you to different contractors. When you need warranty service, you’ll work with the same team that installed your windows and knows your specific installation.
Several signs indicate it’s time for window replacement in Yonkers homes. Drafts around windows, condensation between glass panes, difficulty opening or closing windows, and noticeably higher energy bills all suggest your windows are failing.
Visual inspection reveals other problems: peeling paint or rot on wooden frames, warped or damaged sashes, broken hardware, or single-pane glass in older homes. If you feel temperature differences near windows or notice outside noise clearly audible indoors, your windows aren’t providing adequate insulation.
Age is also a factor. Windows installed before 1990 typically lack modern energy efficiency features that are especially important in Yonkers’ climate. Even if they seem functional, upgrading to energy-efficient windows often pays for itself through reduced heating and cooling costs, while dramatically improving comfort during our temperature extremes.
