There is no single window brand or product line that is right for every home.
Lakeside Exteriors helps homeowners compare window materials, styles, glass packages, warranties, and price points before making a decision.
The right window matters. The quality of the installation matters just as much.
WINDOW STYLES
Replacement Window Options for Minnesota Homes
Changing your windows is a chance to improve more than performance. The right window style can improve ventilation, natural light, views, and the way each room feels.
Why Homeowners Choose Lakeside Exteriors
Choosing a window replacement contractor matters just as much as choosing the window itself. Poor installation can lead to air leaks, water damage, drafts, and expensive repairs.
Lakeside Exteriors installs full-frame replacement windows with close attention to flashing, insulation, sealing, and interior and exterior finishing.
Homeowners receive clear communication, a written proposal, certified installation, and a five-year workmanship warranty.
"I started Lakeside after years at large nationwide contractors because I wanted to do this the right way — where the homeowner actually knows what's happening, the crew shows up when they say they will, and nobody cuts corners because they're rushing to the next job. That's still how we operate on every single project."
-Freddie Macalus, Owner, Lakeside Exteriors

COMMON QUESTIONS
Homeowners Ask.
We Answer.
Straight answers to the questions we get most. No runaround.
What are the best energy-efficient window brands?
Pella, Andersen, Marvin, and ProVia each build window lines rated for Minnesota's freeze-thaw cycles, with Low-E glass and argon-filled panes that cut heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. Lakeside Exteriors is a certified installer for all four brands and helps homeowners choose the line that fits their home's age, opening size, and budget.
How much does professional window replacement cost?
Cost depends on the number of windows, the size and style of each one, the brand and glass package, and the condition of the existing frame and trim. Lakeside Exteriors provides a clear written estimate after an on-site inspection, so you get an exact number instead of a rough guess.
What financing options are available for window replacement?
Lakeside Exteriors offers financing options for qualified homeowners in addition to standard payment methods. Exact terms and eligibility are reviewed during your free estimate.
What should I know about window warranties?
Lakeside installs carry the manufacturer's warranty on glass and frame, plus a written workmanship warranty on the installation itself, covering both the product and the labor.
Is full-frame window replacement better than insert replacement?
Full-frame replacement is often the better choice when the existing window frame has rot, water damage, poor insulation, or structural issues. The entire window and frame are removed so the opening can be inspected, repaired, insulated, and flashed before the new window is installed.
Insert replacement can work well when the existing frame is solid, square, and in good condition. It is less invasive and may preserve the current interior and exterior trim. Lakeside Exteriors installs both methods and recommends the best option after inspecting the existing windows.
How long does window replacement take?
Most window replacement projects take one to several days, depending on the number of windows, the installation method, window size, and the condition of the existing openings. A smaller insert replacement project may be completed in one day, while a whole-home full-frame project may take several days.
Before installation begins, Lakeside Exteriors will explain the expected schedule, prepare the work areas, and keep you updated throughout the project.
