FAQ
Window & Door Replacement FAQs
Straight answers to the questions Georgia homeowners ask most before replacing their windows and doors with Jamb Up Installations.
Estimates & Pricing
How does the estimate process work?
We typically start with a few photos and basic project details so we can provide realistic options and ballpark pricing. For doors, send photos of your current door(s). For windows, send photos of all four sides of your home. If the project looks like a good fit, we'll schedule an on-site visit to measure, review options, and finalize the quote.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. We try to do some initial qualifying and pricing by phone, text, or email first to make sure the project is something we can help with before scheduling an on-site visit.
How much does window replacement cost?
Standard vinyl windows start at $700 per window installed, and premium vinyl windows start at $825 per window installed. Material type, glass type, and custom sizing can change the price.
How much does a new exterior door cost?
A single primed smooth fiberglass door with no glass starts at $1,699 installed, and a full-lite door starts at $1,920 installed. Double doors with no glass start at $2,950 installed. Prefinished single doors start at $2,850, and doors with sidelights start at $3,850.
How much do I have to pay upfront?
We typically require a 50% deposit when the project is approved, with the remaining balance due when installation is complete. Financed projects require no deposit.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. We offer financing through Wisetack for projects up to $25,000 and through Synchrony for projects over $25,000. Financing is available to qualified homeowners and requires no deposit.
How can I pay?
We accept payment through our Jobber payment portal, check, cash, or Zelle.
Products
What brands of windows and doors do you install?
We work with several trusted manufacturers, including Pella, ProVia, Therma-Tru, VinylMax, and MaxCraft, rather than pushing one brand. This lets us recommend products based on your needs, style, budget, and the specific opening.
Do you install customer-supplied windows or doors?
Generally, no. We prefer to supply and install the products so we can verify sizing, specifications, and compatibility, and handle any manufacturer-related issues throughout the project.
Are you a certified door installer?
Yes. Jamb Up Installations is a Therma-Tru Certified Door System Installer. Our certification was issued in 2024 and is valid through 2028.
Timing & Installation
How long will it take to get my windows or doors after ordering?
Lead times vary by manufacturer, product, color, glass, and level of customization. We'll give you the expected lead time before ordering and keep you updated as your order moves through production and scheduling.
How long does installation take?
Most projects are completed quickly. Many window projects are done in one day, and most standard door replacements are finished the same day. Larger or more complex projects may take longer.
Do I need a permit?
Most standard window and door replacements don't require extensive permitting, but requirements vary by project and municipality. If a permit is required for our work, we'll discuss it with you before the project begins.
Warranty & Trust
What kind of warranty do you offer?
Our installations are backed by our workmanship warranty, and the products carry manufacturer warranties that vary by product and manufacturer. We'll explain your coverage when we review your options.
Are you insured?
Yes. Jamb Up Installations is insured through NEXT Insurance and National Specialty Insurance Company.
What makes Jamb Up different from a large window or door company?
We're a local, owner-operated company, and we stay directly involved throughout the project. Instead of a high-pressure sales process, we give homeowners straightforward recommendations, multiple options when appropriate, and quality installation by people who specialize in windows and doors.
What areas do you serve?
We serve Northeast Georgia and metro Atlanta, including Loganville, Monroe, Snellville, Lawrenceville, Lilburn, Athens, Hoschton, Dacula, Winder, Jefferson, Gainesville, Duluth, Suwanee, Johns Creek, Alpharetta, and Cumming.
