Window Options
Replacement Windows Built for Excelsior Homes
From lake-area homes near Lake Minnetonka to classic properties near downtown Excelsior, every home has different window needs. Lakeside Exteriors installs custom-fit replacement windows that help reduce drafts, improve comfort, bring in more natural light, and give your home a clean, polished exterior look.
01
Double-Hung Windows
Double-hung windows are a classic choice for Excelsior homes, from older lake-area properties near downtown to traditional two-story homes near Lake Minnetonka. Both sashes open, making them easy to clean, simple to ventilate, and a natural fit for bedrooms, living rooms, dining rooms, and second-floor spaces.
For Excelsior homes with drafty wood windows, sticking sashes, or fogged glass, double-hung replacement windows can improve comfort without taking away from the home’s character. We match frame depth, exterior color, trim style, and grille pattern so the new windows look like they belong.
02
Casement Windows
Casement windows are a strong upgrade for Excelsior homeowners who want better airflow, tighter sealing, and clean sightlines. They crank open from the side and press firmly against the frame when closed, helping reduce drafts during cold Minnesota winters.
They work well in kitchens, offices, bedrooms, lake-facing rooms, and spaces where fresh air matters. For older Excelsior homes with worn weatherstripping, loose frames, or single-pane glass, new casement windows can make a noticeable improvement in comfort and energy performance.
03
Picture & Fixed Windows
Picture and fixed windows are ideal for Excelsior homes where natural light, lake views, wooded lots, and curb appeal matter most. Since they do not open, they offer strong energy performance and create a clean, polished look from inside and outside the home.
These windows are popular in living rooms, stairwells, vaulted spaces, front-facing walls, and backyard-facing rooms. For homes near Lake Minnetonka or downtown Excelsior, picture windows can brighten the home, frame outdoor views, and help create a more open feel.
04
Sliding windows open side to side, making them a practical option for wider openings where a crank-out window may not be the best fit. They work well over kitchen sinks, in bedrooms, lower-level rooms, porch areas, and spaces where simple operation is preferred.
Many Excelsior ramblers, split-level homes, and remodeled lake-area properties have wider window openings that pair well with sliding replacement windows. We size each unit carefully so it fits cleanly, opens smoothly, and lines up with the existing trim and exterior profile.
05
Bay and bow windows add light, depth, and character to Excelsior homes. They project outward from the wall, creating a brighter room, more visual interest, and a more finished exterior look.
These windows are a strong fit for front living rooms, dining areas, lake-facing rooms, and spaces where homeowners want more natural light or better curb appeal. Bay and bow window installation takes careful planning around framing, rooflines, insulation, trim, and exterior finishing. Lakeside Exteriors handles the full process so the window looks built into the home.
06
Egress windows are required for many finished lower-level bedrooms and living spaces in Minnesota. In Excelsior, they are often part of basement finishing projects, lower-level remodels, or older homes being updated for safer, brighter, more usable space.
We help size egress windows to meet code requirements and explain what to expect before work begins. This can include the window unit, opening size, well placement, drainage needs, trim work, and permit details. The result is a safer lower-level window that brings in more light and improves function.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Excelsior Homeowners Ask. We Answer.
Questions Excelsior homeowners often ask before scheduling a window replacement or window installation estimate.
What are the best replacement windows for homes in Excelsior, MN?
The best replacement windows for Excelsior homes are usually energy-efficient vinyl, fiberglass, or wood windows with insulated glass, Low-E coatings, and strong weather sealing. The right choice depends on your home’s style, your budget, how much maintenance you want, and how much protection you need from cold winters, summer humidity, and lake-area moisture.
How much does window replacement cost in Excelsior, MN?
Window replacement cost in Excelsior depends on the number of windows, window size, frame material, glass package, trim work, and installation needs. Standard double-hung and sliding windows usually cost less than bay, bow, picture, or specialty windows. Lakeside Exteriors provides a free, zero-pressure estimate with clear pricing before work starts.
Can windows be replaced during winter in Minnesota?
Yes. Window replacement can be done during winter when it is planned and installed correctly. A professional crew can replace windows in stages, keep openings covered, and keep interior disruption to a minimum. Many homeowners choose winter installation when drafts and comfort issues are most noticeable.
What window styles work best for older Excelsior homes?
Older Excelsior homes often look best with double-hung, casement, picture, bay, or bow windows that fit the home’s original character. The goal is to choose the right grille pattern, frame depth, color, and trim details so the new windows look right for the house and improve performance at the same time.
Do new windows help lower energy bills?
Yes. New replacement windows can help reduce drafts, heat loss, condensation, and cold spots. For Excelsior homes with older single-pane windows, failed seals, or worn frames, new windows can make the home feel more comfortable and help reduce heating and cooling strain.
How long does window installation take?
Most window installation projects take one to two days, depending on the number of windows and the amount of trim or repair work needed. Larger projects or custom window installations can take longer. Lakeside Exteriors gives homeowners a clear project timeline before installation begins.
