Modern Day Window & Door provides comprehensive window and door services throughout Garrett, serving both historic downtown properties and rural homes across DeKalb County. Our experienced team understands the unique needs of Indiana's agricultural community, from energy-efficient upgrades for century-old farmhouses to modern installations in newer developments.
Garrett's continental climate with frigid winters and humid summers puts significant stress on windows and doors through freeze-thaw cycles and extreme temperature variations. Many homeowners in DeKalb County face high energy bills due to outdated single-pane windows that can't handle Indiana's 70°F+ seasonal temperature swings and moisture challenges.
We proudly serve Garrett and surrounding communities like Auburn, Indiana and Fort Wayne, Indiana, bringing quality installation and local expertise to northeastern Indiana.

We work extensively with both Garrett's historic downtown homes built in the early 1900s and rural DeKalb County properties, understanding the unique challenges of each. Our installations account for the structural considerations of older farmhouses while meeting modern energy efficiency standards demanded by Indiana's climate.
Our certified installers understand Indiana's extreme temperature variations, ensuring proper sealing and insulation against ice dams in winter and humidity issues during summer months. We use installation techniques specifically designed for the Midwest's freeze-thaw cycles that can damage improperly sealed windows.
We're familiar with DeKalb County building requirements and can help navigate local permitting processes when needed. Homeowners from rural properties to Auburn to Huntertown trust our local expertise and commitment to quality installation.
Permit requirements for window replacement in Garrett vary by project scope. Simple window-to-window replacements may not require permits, while structural changes typically do. We recommend contacting the Garrett Building Department to verify current requirements for your specific project. Regulations and requirements may vary by project scope and can change. Always verify current requirements with local authorities before beginning work.
Garrett's continental climate with cold winters (averaging lows around 15°F) and warm, humid summers demands energy-efficient windows. Many homeowners in DeKalb County choose double or triple-pane low-E windows to handle temperature swings of 70°F or more between seasons. Proper sealing is crucial to prevent ice dams in winter and condensation issues during humid summer months.
We serve all areas of Garrett, from the historic downtown district with older farmhouse-style homes to newer residential developments on the city's outskirts. Many of our projects are in DeKalb County's rural properties where energy efficiency upgrades are a priority due to higher heating costs in larger, older homes.
Window replacement costs in Garrett typically range from $300-800 per window depending on size, style, and energy efficiency features. Factors affecting cost include the age of your home, whether structural modifications are needed, and local climate requirements for proper insulation and sealing against Indiana's harsh winters.
We proudly serve communities throughout the area, including Auburn, Indiana, Huntertown, Indiana, Churubusco, Indiana, Fort Wayne, Indiana, New Haven, Indiana, Woodburn, Indiana, Columbia City, Indiana, Roanoke, Indiana, and more.
