DO-IT-YOURSELF VS. PROFESSIONAL WINDOW REPLACEMENT

Window replacement should be done right the first time. Some homeowners, however, will attempt to replace their windows on their own. Renewal by Andersen® of St. Louis, a premier windows company in the area, explains why it’s better to entrust window installation to the pros.

Do It Yourself Vs Professional Window Replacement

Workmanship

Without prior knowledge and experience, it will be difficult to remove your old windows and install new ones. In fact, you may end up damaging the window units if you don’t handle them carefully. Instead of doing it on your own, work with the experts to avoid the risks of botched window installation.

Product Performance

You want your new replacement windows to perform as promised. This, however, won’t be the case when you attempt to install them by yourself. Plus, improperly installed windows can cause you more trouble in the long run and even result in premature replacement.

Time

Working with a professional window installer means the task will be done on time. They know exactly how to do their job, which makes the task easier. Entrusting the job to them can also help prevent disruptions.

Cost

Many homeowners tend to venture in DIY window replacement because they want to minimize the initial expenses. This is a common mistake, however, that can may cause you to spend more money down the road. Unreliable DIY installation techniques, for instance, can cause your new windows to fail earlier than expected.

Reviews

"Have nothing but great things to say about the window installation done today by John Hutchinson with Renewal by Andersen! He was friendly, personable and professional and did a great job installing. He did a great job of putting down roller pads and tarps with next to zero clean up. Would highly recommend them for any window replacement needed!"

"We had our new Renewal by Andersen windows installed on June 5th & 6th, 2025 and we LOVE them! The quality, beauty, and functionality are best-in-class! The whole experience from dinner presentation at Lazy River Grill, the initial in-home sales consultation and measurement, the regular communications from the salesman and concierge, and the installation team’s professionalism and skills made the process so seamless. This is the second home we have opted for Renewal windows and doors and have been delighted both times! Thank you Renewal by Andersen STL! "

"I had an excellent experience with RbA STL. Our designer, Courtney, was great and the finished product is awesome. The installation was easy and the gentlemen left our home cleaner than they found it upon entering. I would recommend RbA STL - you’ll get tired from their constant contacts, and that’s a GOOD thing!"
