How to choose between them

  • Check the license yourself. Where Illinois or Chicago licenses this work, the licensing board's own lookup confirms a license number in a minute. Do it before you sign, not after.
  • Get three bids on the same scope. Written down, split into labor, materials, allowances and anything structural. Most people compare a total against a total and end up choosing between two different projects.
  • Ask what is not included. Permits, debris removal, fixture and finish allowances, and repairs after demolition are the four that turn a cheap bid into an average one.
  • Never pay a large deposit up front. A deposit to order materials and hold a start date is normal. Half the total before anyone shows up is not.

Window replacement companies in Chicago: common questions

Insert or full-frame replacement?

Insert windows go into the existing frame, cost less and leave interior trim alone. Full-frame replacement removes everything to the rough opening, which is the right call if the frames are rotten or you want to inspect and re-flash the opening.
