Featured Project: Full-Home Window Replacement near Wayzata Beach

The Challenge: The homeowners, located just off Bushaway Road, needed to replace 14 original wood windows that were failing, causing high energy bills, and creating condensation issues during the cold months.
The Solution: Our team recommended Marvin Essentials Fiberglass Double-Hung Windows in a custom color to match the original trim, providing superior insulation (R-value) and longevity. We handled the installation over four days, ensuring all work met Wayzata city codes for residential exterior renovation.
The Result: "The difference is unbelievable. We can finally sit in our sunroom without a draft, and the noise from the lake traffic has dropped significantly. Lakeside Exteriors was professional and knew exactly what our Wayzata home needed."

Is it Time for New Windows?
Three common Minnesota issues we solve
Drafts and Energy Loss
You've tried everything. In winter, it's extra blankets, space heaters, and plastic film kits from the hardware store. In summer, your AC runs constantly but certain rooms still feel like a sauna. No matter what you do, you're fighting a losing battle against windows that just can't keep up anymore.
Condensation and Moisture Problems
Maybe you've noticed the fog trapped between your double pane glass—a sign the seals have failed. Maybe you cringe every time the heating OR cooling bill arrives, wondering how it's even possible. Or maybe you just want to enjoy your home without feeling the weather from inside it.
Difficulty Operating and Appearance
Windows that stick, won't lock, or are painted shut create security risks and reduce ventilation options. Outdated styles can hurt your home's curb appeal and resale value. New replacement windows transform both function and appearance. Modern windows operate smoothly, lock securely, and instantly update your home's look.

Window Installation Solutions for Every Situation
Every home is different. Every problem is different. Maybe you need to replace one broken window, or maybe it's time for a whole-house upgrade. Maybe you want the classic look of wood, or maybe low-maintenance vinyl makes more sense for your life. Whatever your situation, we have window installation options that fit your needs, your style, and your budget.
Vinyl Windows
The most popular choice for homeowners seeking low maintenance and excellent value. Vinyl windows never need painting, resist moisture and rot, and provide outstanding energy efficiency at an affordable price point. Available in multiple colors to match your home's exterior. Perfect for Minnesota's climate with multi-chambered frames for maximum insulation.
Wood Windows
Classic beauty and authentic character for Minnesota's historic homes and high-end properties. Real wood interiors provide natural warmth and can be stained or painted to match any decor. Modern wood windows feature aluminum or vinyl exteriors for weather protection while maintaining traditional appearance. Superior insulation properties and timeless elegance make wood windows the premium choice.
Fiberglass windows
The ultimate performance option for extreme Minnesota weather. Fiberglass is the strongest window frame material available, offering exceptional structural integrity and thermal performance. Won't expand or contract with temperature changes. Extremely low maintenance with paint-free exteriors. More expensive initially, but fiberglass windows can last 50+ years and provide the highest energy savings.
