How Are Replacement Windows Installed?
Katelyn Lewis • Feb 28, 2024
Replacing your home’s windows can boost your home’s curb appeal while also making it more energy-efficient. But what does the installation process look like?
Retex installed these triple-paned Provia windows at a North Chesterfield home in August 2023. They are low-E glass and filled with argon gas as well, helping to reduce the amount of outside noise and heat transfer between the home and the great outdoors.
Without further ado, here are our window installation steps:
- Materials delivered, usually the day before the project is scheduled to start.
- Remove old windows and install new ones (no brainer, right?)
- Install spray foam along the windows’ exteriors.
- Clad the windows, further protecting them from Mother Nature.
- Caulk the windows, both inside and outside, to seal the deal.
Finally, we clean up the yard of debris and nails. It may seem like we were never there, except for the new awesome windows in your home.

This Midlothian homeowner reached out to Retex in August 2023 for a roof replacement quote. Retex’s Mark Erickson assessed and discussed the roof in question, and helped the homeowner select Owens Corning Duration “Driftwood” shingles to compliment his home’s exteriors.
The homeowner chose Retex to replace his siding with CertainTeed’s Mainstreet vinyl siding in “Pacific Blue,” and had 16 Provia Ecolite windows and a new patio door installed.
Can you replace just pieces of damaged siding?
Quick answer: Yes. But there's a little more to it – read on to find out what your options are.
Flat roofs are nearly horizontal in pitch, with the slightest slope to allow water to drain, rather than sit, on top of the roof. In this case, this Richmond homeowner opted for a TPO, or single-ply roof.
