“Window replacement is one of the most underrated projects in Colorado. Every winter I see homes losing heat through 20-year-old double-pane windows that have failed their gas seal. We’ve been installing Pella windows across Northern Colorado since 2014 — and with hail season, we’re often replacing storm-damaged windows through insurance at little to no cost to the homeowner.”

“Colorado’s climate is hard on windows — the altitude means more UV, the temperature swings are extreme, and hail takes out glass more often than people realize. Since 2014, I’ve replaced windows in homes across the Front Range and one thing is consistent: homeowners who invest in quality double-pane or triple-pane windows see immediate results in comfort and utility bills. Don’t cheap out on the installation — a poor install ruins even a premium window.”

Common Questions

Window Replacement FAQs

How much does window replacement cost in Longmont CO?

Window replacement typically runs about $1,600 per window installed (less per window on larger orders), with the total project cost depending on window count, size, and whether you choose double-pane or triple-pane glass.

Does insurance cover window replacement after hail damage?

Yes. Cracked glass, broken seals, and damaged frames from hail are typically covered under Colorado homeowner’s insurance. Josh Brooks Construction and Renovation Inc. documents the damage with photos, meets your adjuster, and replaces the windows to the approved scope. Your deductible is still yours to pay under Colorado law.

What is the difference between double-pane and triple-pane windows?

Double-pane windows have two glass layers with a gas-filled gap, while triple-pane windows add a third layer for maximum thermal performance, noise reduction, and UV blocking, which is well suited to Colorado’s wide temperature swings.

What is an egress window and when is it required?

An egress window is a minimum-size window required for emergency exit from any basement room used as a bedroom. Boulder County requires a permitted egress window for a basement bedroom to be considered legal.

Window Installation and Window Replacement in Longmont, CO

We replace drafty, fogged and hail-damaged windows throughout Longmont, using insert or full-frame installation depending on the condition of the existing frames. We hold Boulder County contractor license CON-24-0152 (Class C).

Insert vs. full-frame installation

Insert replacement fits a new window into the existing frame and keeps interior trim intact. Full-frame replacement removes the old frame to the studs, which lets us fix rot, re-flash the opening and change the window size. We tell you which your house needs after looking at the frames.
