Getting new windows for your home is a significant investment that impacts not only your property's appearance but also its energy efficiency and comfort. Rather than rushing through this important decision, it's essential to find a trustworthy partner who will guide you through the window replacement process with expertise and transparency.


Whether you're looking to upgrade outdated windows, improve your home's insulation, or enhance its curb appeal, knowing how to get accurate and fair quotes is crucial. Here's what homeowners in Chicagoland should know to secure the best windows and service possible.



What To Ask When Getting A Quote For Windows?

When meeting with window replacement companies, asking the right questions can help you evaluate which provider best meets your needs. Here are essential questions every homeowner should ask:

About the Windows

  • What window brands do you work with? (Look for established manufacturers with solid warranties)

  • What materials are available, and which would you recommend for our climate?

  • What energy efficiency ratings do your windows have?

  • What style options are available to match my home's aesthetics?

About the Installation

  • Do you use in-house installers or subcontractors?

  • Are your installers certified or specially trained?

  • How long will the installation take?

  • What steps do you take to protect my home during installation?

About the Company

  • How long have you been in business?

  • Can you provide references from recent local projects?

  • Do you have proper licensing and insurance?

  • What warranties do you offer on both products and labor?


At Welsh Windows Plus, we work with premium brands like Lang and Pella, offering our customers exceptional quality and durability. We encourage prospective clients to check our reviews online, where our reputation for excellence speaks for itself. Additionally, our gallery showcases our past projects throughout the South Chicago suburbs, giving you confidence in our craftsmanship.


When comparing quotes, don't just look at the bottom line. Consider the timeline for completion, warranty coverage, and most importantly, the company's reputation and expertise. The lowest price isn't always the best value when it comes to something as important as your home's windows.

What Is The Process Like?

The window replacement process should be straightforward and stress-free. Here's what you can expect when working with a quality provider:

Initial Consultation

A professional consultant should visit your home to assess your current windows, discuss your needs, and take accurate measurements. This visit is your opportunity to ask questions and explore options.

Quote Preparation

After the consultation, you should receive a detailed, written quote that clearly outlines all costs, including materials, labor, and any additional services.

Decision Making

Take time to review quotes from different providers. A reputable company won't pressure you into making an immediate decision.

Installation

Once you've chosen a provider, they should schedule the installation at your convenience and complete the work efficiently with minimal disruption.

Customer Success Story

"Welsh replaced three of my living room windows with new casements, and replaced my old kitchen window with a new awning window. They look beautiful. The two installers worked diligently and were very precise in their work. I obtained many quotes and talked to several window companies before I made a decision, and Welsh had the most straightforward advice and the most competitive price point." Mary — Chicagoland, IL

At Welsh Windows Plus, we pride ourselves on our transparent, no-pressure approach. Our in-person consultations are thorough yet efficient—we respect your time and aim to educate rather than overwhelm you. The consultation length depends on your project's size, but we strive to be concise and informative.


Our pricing is straightforward with no hidden fees, and we offer financing options to make your window project more affordable. For homeowners working within a budget, we often recommend phasing your window replacement by installing a few windows at a time, prioritizing those in the poorest condition or in the most-used rooms of your home.
