Window Replacement & Exterior Remodeling in Whitewater, WI
Wilco Exteriors replaces and installs windows for Whitewater homeowners, and we take care of residential roofing as well. Our team also handles siding, gutters, exterior doors, and soffit and fascia. If your windows are drafty, foggy, or hard to open, or the roof and siding are starting to show their age, we’ll come out for a free inspection and give you a clear, written estimate.
Window Replacement in Whitewater, WI
Most window problems start small. A sash gets harder to lift each year, a lock stops catching, or a pane turns cloudy between the glass. Before long, the frames are cracking and certain rooms never feel warm enough in winter.
Wilco provides window replacement for Whitewater homeowners with energy-efficient vinyl and fiberglass replacement windows. Our window installers measure every opening individually, set each new window square so it opens and locks smoothly, and seal the full perimeter before finishing the trim inside and out.
That careful installation is what keeps drafts and moisture out and makes new windows worth the investment. See our window replacement page for more on materials and glass.
What We Hear From Homeowners
These are the issues we see most often when homeowners call us about replacement windows:
Drafts Around the Frame Cold air slips in near the sash even when the window is closed.
Fog Between the Panes A haze inside the glass means the seal has failed.
Windows That Stick The sash drags or jams instead of sliding freely.
Difficult Locks The latch has to be forced or doesn’t pull the window tight.
Deteriorating Frames Soft wood, peeling paint, or cracked vinyl point to a frame that’s breaking down.
Windows That Won’t Stay Open Worn balances let the sash drop once you let go.
A replacement window that’s sized for the opening and sealed properly takes care of these issues together. Drafts stop, and the space near the glass feels comfortable again. New sashes move easily and lock securely, and energy-efficient glass helps rooms hold a steadier temperature. From outside, fresh frames and clear glass give the house a cleaner, updated look.
Replacement Window Options for Your Home
Whitewater has a mix of older homes and newer construction, and the right window depends on the house and the room. Wilco installs energy-efficient vinyl and fiberglass replacement windows, and we’ll walk you through the choices in plain terms during your estimate.
Double-Hung Replacement Windows
Both sashes slide, so you can open the top, bottom, or both. They’re a natural fit for bedrooms and living areas, and the sashes tilt in for easy cleaning.
Sliding Replacement Windows
Sliders open side to side without any lifting. They’re useful over kitchen counters, in basements, and in wide openings where a tall window won’t fit.
Picture Windows
A single fixed pane that lets in plenty of light and keeps the view clear. They’re often paired with operating windows so the room still gets fresh air.
Custom-Fit Replacement Windows
Existing openings are often slightly out of square or an unusual size. We measure each one and order windows to fit, so they seal tightly and look finished.
Vinyl or Fiberglass
Vinyl is cost-effective and needs little upkeep. Fiberglass costs more but holds its shape well through temperature changes. We’ll help you decide which suits your home.
What to Expect During Window Replacement
We keep the process simple and make sure you know what’s happening at each step.
Free Consultation and Estimate
We visit your home, talk through what’s bothering you, and look at your windows. The estimate is free, with no obligation.
Evaluating Your Existing Windows
We check how each window works and inspect seals, frames, and trim, then explain which ones need replacing.
Choosing Your Replacement Windows
We help you choose styles, materials, and glass, measure each opening, and give you a written quote.
Preparing for Installation
When your windows arrive, we schedule a date and let you know what to move beforehand.
Replacement Window Installation
Our crew removes each old window, prepares the opening, and installs, seals, and trims the new one. We’ll show you any hidden damage first.
Cleanup and Final Walkthrough
We haul away the old windows, clean up, and test every new window with you.
Many window replacement projects are finished in a day or two. Larger homes or jobs with framing repairs can take longer, and we’ll give you a realistic timeline up front.
Residential Roofing in Whitewater, WI
Wilco Exteriors is also a roofing contractor for Whitewater homeowners, handling roof inspections, repairs, roof replacement, and new roof installation.
Homeowners usually call after noticing missing or curled shingles, a stain on the ceiling, or flashing lifting around a chimney or vent. Wisconsin’s snow, ice, storms, and freeze-thaw cycles wear on a roof gradually, and much of that wear can’t be seen from the ground.
That’s why every project starts with a look at the roof’s current condition. From there, we’ll tell you whether it needs maintenance, a targeted repair, or a new asphalt shingle roof. Many problems don’t call for a full replacement, and as your roofing company, we’ll be straight with you about that. Learn more about roof replacement.
More Exterior Services for Whitewater Homeowners
Siding Replacement
Cracked, warped, loose, or faded siding lets moisture reach your walls and makes the house look worn. We replace damaged sections and install new siding, finishing the trim so the exterior looks complete.
Gutter Replacement
Leaking, sagging, overflowing, or loose gutters let water run down your siding instead of away from the house. We install seamless gutters that move runoff away from your walls and foundation.
Soffit/Fascia Replacement
Fascia supports the gutters and protects the roof edge, and vented soffit helps the attic breathe. Loose, damaged, or aging boards should be replaced to keep the roofline protected and finished.
Door Replacement
Drafty, sticking, or damaged doors make every trip in and out harder. We replace entry and patio doors, measuring carefully so each one fits square, seals well, and swings smoothly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Drafts, fog between the panes, sticking sashes, faulty locks, and soft or cracked frames are the most common signs. When several windows share these problems, replacement is usually the better long-term choice.
Yes. Many homeowners start with the windows causing the most trouble and replace the rest later. We’ll help you prioritize.
We remove each old window, prepare the opening, and install, seal, and trim the new one. Then we clean up and test every window with you.
Moisture between the panes means the seal around the insulated glass has failed, letting humid air in. It can’t be wiped away, and replacing the window or glass unit is the usual fix. Condensation on the inside surface of the glass is different and is usually caused by indoor humidity.
After a storm with strong wind or hail, when you notice missing shingles or a leak, or if your roof is getting older and hasn’t been checked recently.
Widespread shingle damage, recurring leaks, a soft roof deck, or materials at the end of their useful life point toward replacement. Isolated damage can usually be repaired.
Cracked, warped, or loose panels, uneven fading, and gaps at seams or corners are worth having checked.
When they leak in several spots, sag or pull away from the house, or overflow even when clean.
