How do I know if my windows need to be replaced?

Common signs include drafts near the frame, condensation between the panes, windows that stick or won't stay open, and noticeably higher energy bills. Older single-pane windows are a major source of heat loss in mid-Missouri winters. If your windows are more than 20 years old or showing any of these signs, a free inspection can tell you whether repair or full replacement makes more sense.

How much do replacement windows cost?

Cost depends on the number of windows, frame material, glass type, and style. Vinyl windows are the most affordable and still very energy-efficient. Fiberglass costs more but lasts longer and handles Missouri's temperature extremes especially well. Wood is the premium option. We provide free, detailed estimates so you can compare your options clearly before making a decision — no pressure, just honest information.

Will new windows lower my energy bills?

They can, especially if you're replacing older single-pane or poorly sealed windows. Modern double-pane windows with Low-E glass coatings reduce heat transfer — keeping your home cooler in summer and warmer in winter. How much you save depends on how inefficient your current windows are, but many mid-Missouri homeowners see a noticeable difference in comfort and utility costs after replacement.

How long does window replacement take?

Most window replacement projects are completed in one to two days, depending on the number of windows and any custom sizing needed. We work efficiently and clean up thoroughly at the end of each day. If you're replacing all the windows in your home at once, we'll give you a realistic schedule upfront so you can plan accordingly. Your home stays secure throughout the process.

I got a roof, windows, and siding. Was happy with every job. They updated me often through the process. Definitely recommend and will use them in future!

We just completed our home siding. I am amazed at how my vision & dream came to reality with Prolific Exteriors. Jimmy and Angie are the poster children for how businesses should operate--- the attention to detail, communication, immediate communication, quality of workmanship and keeping the client updated on the timeline--not to forget, making your dream a reality. They are fairly priced for the market but really underpriced for the quality and workmanship of their crew of people. If you want to base your selection on cheap, remember you get cheap--which means you probably won't get your phone calls returned! If you want high quality fairly priced along with honesty, integrity and genuinely caring for the client, then Prolific Exteriors match all of these qualities. Oh, and one other thing, no hidden surprise upcharges! We increased the scope of our project to include our deck and before they began, I was told of the increase and a line-item cost of the addition expense---Who does that now? Most of the time a client has no idea what was purchased and for how much! Great company, great people--Angie & Jimmy--making your dream a reality!

We needed our sliding glass door replaced and had two companies out to do bids. We instantly knew that we were going to go with Prolific Exteriors. Jimmy and Angie were responsive, honest and professional throughout the job, and their crew was thorough, efficient and pleasant to have working on our home. The door looks great and works better than our old door ever did! I highly recommend Prolific Exteriors, and I plan to use them for all my home exterior needs!

The team at Prolific were fast and their work was impeccable. They took care to inform us of issues with our nearly 120 year old property, and ensure the work would last for years. Very patient, responsive, and kind.

Angie and Jimmy are wonderful caring people. If you are looking for a company that gives back to the community, are wonderful to work with, and does an outstanding job, you have found it. I am the winner of their first Apples for Teachers roof give away. They made my roof experience so easy, everything from picking out shingles to instillation. I do not have words that can express the appreciation of a wonderful gift. Thank you Angie and Jimmy!!

What a great company. We had a new garage door installed on our shop and it was just an all around great experience. Communication throughout the entire process, quality work completed in a timely manner. What more could you ask for? We will definitely be using Prolific Exteriors for future projects!

Wanted to say that Jim, Angie, and crew did a great job repairing a leak in my roof. What I liked, besides the great work, was they kept me informed when and what they were doing. Showed up when promised. Developed another leak in different area a month later and they were here immediately to fix it. Will be using them again when anything else comes up.
