Don’t wait to replace your windows and doors. Modern Day Window & Door explains why acting now maximizes your investment, improves comfort, and locks in discounts—no matter the season in Indianapolis.
Why Now Is the Best Time for Replacement
Thinking about new windows or doors for your Indianapolis home? We caught up with Scott Dorrell from Modern Day Window & Door to talk about why there’s no reason to wait, what benefits you’ll see, and how the process works—even in the winter months.
Why is now the best time for window and door replacement in Indianapolis?
Scott Dorrell: If you need windows, the best time to replace them is yesterday. Letting window problems linger can lead to bigger issues in your home. If you’re looking at windows as an investment, you’ll see your home’s value go up, save on heating and cooling, and extend the life of your HVAC, floors, furniture, and even your artwork. The sooner you replace windows or doors, the more you benefit—and the longer you enjoy those savings before you sell your house.
What are the benefits of replacing windows and doors early?
Scott Dorrell: Most people only buy windows once or twice in their life. Many of my customers now replace windows right after buying a new home because they know it’s one of the best first projects. If windows or doors are on your to-do list, it’s worth having us out for a look and a quote. Some folks do the project in phases—maybe just the problem windows, the front of the house, or a new entry system. If you move forward with any part of a project, we’ll lock in your discount for as long as you own the home. The earlier you start, the more you get out of your investment.
How does the project timeline work for winter installations?
Scott Dorrell: Everything is built to order—nothing sits on a shelf. Once we design your project and you give the go-ahead, the manufacturer starts building. From contract to installation, it’s usually 4 to 12 weeks, depending on the product line and supply chain. If you buy in January, your installation will likely be in March or April, which is a great time. We install windows all winter in Indiana. The only things that stop us are precipitation or if it’s so cold the caulk won’t set. Otherwise, we can install in almost any weather.
