- SSStacie Scholl3 days ago5.0We were extremely happy and very satisfied with Chad and Mike who came to take out and install our new windows! !! They’re very professional and super to work with. We definitely highly recommend them to anyone looking to get new windows installed. Stacie & Jack Clark
- SMScott & Rhonda MerrellNov 14, 20255.0We got 4 windows replaced. One included removing an antiquated octagonal window, reframing and installation of a 2 x 3 crank window. Chad and Mike, the installers, did a fantastic job of reframing and installing new molding and sills to make sure the job looked finished. Great craftsmanship!! Thank you!
- RVRichard VarnerNov 13, 20252.0I had windows and storm doors put on in 2021. The handle on the storm door broke off. I called to inquire about a replacement and was told i would get a service call. A few days later i got a call that came up as a robo caller. I never saw that on my phone, almost didnt answer but i did. The caller had no comment when i told her the call came up as a robo call. She only asked what had happened(something i would think they would alredy know) then was told...of course the warranty is only 1 year and i was told i would get another call for a quote. I explained that the doors they replaced were 30 years old and still had handles. Her response was they dont make things like they used to. I suggested they use that on their commercials. I called window world directly to explain my experience and was told i would get a call back in response. All felt shady. Update. I was offered a replacement for $125.00. Dont see a reason to rebuy the same handle that wont last.
- SWSheri WickerNov 12, 20255.0Lee and Joe were great. They faced challenges with old windows and windows that were messed up by a prior contractor. They were very careful and cleaned up when the job was done. My new windows look great. I am very pleased with the work they both did. I highly recommend Window World. When I have more windows replaced I hope I get Lee and Joe again.
- JSJonathan ShafferNov 8, 20255.0We are really pleased with our window world purchase and installation. Our salesman rick did a really great job with us explaining, he was very patient and answered every question we had. Our installer corbin did a fantastic job doing the installation, he really surprised us he did it all by himself with no help and was done quickly and efficiently. We would recommend window world to anyone looking for high quality windows and excellent installation at a very affordable price. Thomas shaffer
Frequently Asked Questions About Window World of Altoona
What does "Any Size, Installed" mean?
The term "Any Size" refers to any size replacement Double-Hung window our manufacturer will construct. Currently this is a minimum width and height of 15" X 26" and a maximum of 48" X 78".

Will the replacement windows be installed from the inside or outside?
The majority of our replacement windows are installed from the outside. In some situations it may be necessary to install from the inside. On the day of installation, your installation expert will assess your unique situation and explain the process that will best suit your home.
Do you install replacement windows year-round? If so, will I lose a lot of heat/cooling at the time of installation?
Window World installs replacement windows year-round. An average installation will take only one day. Our crews install one window at a time and are trained to do what they can to minimize heating/cooling loss. The energy savings from your new windows will recover any incremental energy costs incurred during their installation many times over during their lifetime.
How can I prepare my house for my replacement windows?
Please take down curtains, blinds, or any other window treatments. Security sensors should also be removed and turned off by your security company. Please provide our installation expert with a clear path to the window(s) being replaced by moving anything that may be in the way. It is also advisable to remove all wall decorations from the walls close to the windows as they may fall during removal or installation.
How long will it take to get my replacement windows? How much time should I allow for the installation?
Since every window ordered is custom-built to fit your home and design choices, manufacturing times vary. Once delivered, the type of window being installed and the type being removed help determine the amount of time needed to complete the job. On average, each window takes about 30 minutes. Trim work and cleanup will require additional time to complete. An average job will take a single day.
