Every window & door installer has been burned by this

🪟

You pull the trim and find water damage and rotted studs behind every window. The client agreed to repairs on-site, then disputes the extra charges later.

📐

Rough openings are out of square by two inches. Custom framing is required to make the new units fit. That labor wasn't in the bid.

🚪

Client upgrades from builder-grade to impact-rated or triple-pane mid-order. Lead times double and material costs spike, but they expect the same price.

Change orders window & door installers deal with on every job

Rot & Water Damage

$800 - $3,500

Framing, sheathing, or sill plates are rotted out once the old unit comes out. You can't install on compromised structure.

Out-of-Square Openings

$400 - $1,800

Old homes rarely have plumb, level openings. Custom shimming, reframing, or header work adds hours to every window.

Product Upgrades

$1,200 - $6,000

Client changes from vinyl to fiberglass or adds Low-E coatings, grilles, or impact glass after the order is placed. Restocking and reordering fees stack up.

Flashing & Weatherproofing

$300 - $1,500

Old installations had no proper flashing, drip cap, or sill pan. Installing proper weatherproofing on every opening adds materials and labor to each unit.

Trim & Casing Replacement

$500 - $2,500

Interior and exterior trim is damaged, outdated, or doesn't match the new units. Custom casing, brick mould, or PVC trim adds a finish carpentry scope to the job.

Additional Units & Openings

$2,000 - $8,000

Client adds a patio door, sidelight, or transom after the project starts. New structural headers, framing, and permits for new openings are separate scopes entirely.
