# Window replacement in Kurzeme: the process step by step, from measuring to installation

What to expect from the first consultation to finished, fully working windows in your home.

Planning to replace your windows but unsure how the process works and how long it takes? We put together a step-by-step overview of window replacement - so you know what to expect from the first consultation to finished, fully working windows in your home.

## The process step by step

### Consultation and needs assessment

The process starts with a conversation about your home - how many windows need replacing, their current condition, and your priorities (warmth, appearance, budget). A free consultation helps here, where a specialist can give initial recommendations.

### Accurate on-site measuring

A specialist visits the property and takes precise measurements of every window opening. This is a critical step - even small inaccuracies can cause problems during installation or compromise the final result.

### Preparing the offer and solution

Based on the measurements and your needs, an individual offer is prepared - with a specific window specification (material, glazing, colour) and price.

### Manufacturing

Once the order is confirmed, the windows are produced to the exact measurements. Standard lead times:

- PVC windows: 4-6 weeks
- Aluminium windows: 6-8 weeks

The lead time can vary depending on order size and seasonal workload.

### Professional installation

This is the step that decides whether the windows will serve for years without problems. Quality installation includes precise sealing, correct fixing and careful fitting of reveals and window sills.

### Final check and handover

After installation, the operation of the windows is checked - opening, sealing and airtightness - to make sure everything meets quality standards.

## How long does the whole process take?

The time from the first consultation to completed installation depends on the size of the order and the type of windows, but planning ahead (for example, before the heating season) avoids rushing and makes sure the house is ready for cold weather in time.

## We also work in Kurzeme

We provide window replacement not only in Riga, but across the whole Kurzeme region - from consultation and measuring to on-site installation.

## Frequently asked questions

### How long is the wait after the order is confirmed?

Production time depends on the size of the order, the profile system and the type of windows. Non-standard solutions and special colours usually take longer, so it is worth starting early - especially before the heating season.

### Do I need to measure the openings myself?

No. Accurate measurements are taken on site by a specialist - that is part of the process, and responsibility for correct dimensions stays with us. Your own measurements are only useful for a rough initial estimate.

### Do you work outside Riga?

Yes. We carry out window replacement across the Kurzeme region, including Liepaja, Ventspils, Kuldiga, Talsi and the surrounding areas - from consultation and measuring to installation and handover.

### What happens after installation?

After fitting, every window is checked - opening, sealing and airtightness. You also receive guidance on adjusting the hardware and everyday care.
