When it’s time to replace old windows, add an egress window, or repair storm damage, the options can feel overwhelming—especially when other contractors suggest bundling the job in with siding, roofing, or gutters.

It might sound easier to hand off everything to one exterior crew. But when it comes to your windows, cutting corners can cost you—in drafts, leaks, failed inspections, or expensive do-overs.

At Window Man Inc., we specialize in windows. That’s what we do. And if you’re a homeowner in Central Indiana, here’s what you need to know before deciding who to trust with your project.

🧱 What’s the Difference?

Let’s start with the basics.

• Window companies (like Window Man) focus entirely on windows—replacement, repair, and egress. Our team knows how to install properly, seal tight, and catch issues before they become problems.

• Exterior contractors are generalists. They may install windows, but it’s often a secondary service, handled by subcontractors or added onto bigger jobs like siding or roofing.

Think of it like hiring a painter who can do plumbing. Do you really want that person handling the pipe that protects your foundation?

💸 Are You Really Saving Money?

It’s easy to be tempted by lower bids—but you’re not always getting the same product or install.

When you hire an exterior company for windows, you may be getting:

• Lower-grade materials with poor energy efficiency

• Minimal or no warranty

• Poor fit and finish, especially on older homes or basements

• Rushed installation that doesn’t hold up over time

At Window Man, we use high-quality products we trust—and our crew is trained to install them the right way, every time. We don’t believe in “good enough.” We believe in done right.

🏡 The Hidden Cost of Fast Installs

We’ve seen it too many times: windows that were installed in a hurry end up leaking within a year. Or the trim begins to rot. Or the egress window doesn’t meet code.

Windows are part of your home’s envelope. That means even small mistakes can affect your:

• Energy bills

• Air quality

• Structural integrity

• Safety (especially in basements)

We take the time to flash, insulate, level, and seal each window properly—not just nail it in and move on.

🔨 When an Exterior Contractor Might Be Fine

There are some situations where an exterior contractor could be the right fit:

• You’re doing a quick flip and need fast, “good enough” windows.

• You’re already replacing all siding and want to bundle the job under one contract.

But if you’re planning to live in your home—or care about long-term performance—you deserve more than a shortcut.
