Sometimes one window is enough to make you think, “Okay, it’s probably time.” Maybe it sticks every time you open it, lets in a noticeable draft, or has glass that’s seen better days. Other times, you’re looking around the house and realizing the windows and doors could all use an update. Either way, replacement can give the home a fresh look while making it more comfortable and energy efficient.
When you’re replacing windows and doors, there’s more to figure out than picking a style you like. Legacy Window & Door starts with the house itself, looking at the existing openings, condition, trim, and installation requirements before getting into product options.
Replacing windows and doors can be a relatively small home improvement project or part of a larger remodeling plan. Some homeowners are focused on energy efficiency and lowering heating and cooling costs, while others are more concerned with appearance, operation, security, or replacing products that have simply worn out.
Our window and door replacement options include:
Replacement starts with the house you already have. We look at the condition and dimensions of the existing openings, along with surrounding trim and other details that can affect the installation.
There are plenty of window and door options out there, and not every product is going to make sense for every home. We can explain the differences between materials, styles, glass, and other features so you can choose based on your priorities.
Legacy has approximately 14 years of industry experience and hundreds of completed projects throughout Nebraska and Iowa. Our work includes residential, commercial, new-construction, and insurance-related window and door projects.
The product is only part of the project. Proper fit, sealing, trim, and attention to the surrounding opening all play a role in how a replacement window or door performs once it's installed.
Legacy Window & Door is locally owned and serves homeowners throughout Elmwood, Omaha, Eastern Nebraska, and nearby Iowa communities. We take pride in providing personal service and treating each project with care.
You know those little house problems you keep telling yourself you’ll get around to? If a drafty window or tired-looking door has made that list, this could be the year you finally cross it off.
Whatever has you thinking about replacement, Legacy Window & Door can help you look at your options and plan the project. Schedule your free estimate or call (402) 395-4531 to get started.
Skyline Imaging has been expeditious and professional from start to finish. Dillon Pigsley was super pleasant to work with throughout the claim process and scheduled services. Roofers were there early and gone before 4:30pm. Roof looks great and the property was cleaned up very well.

Dillon and Khalil were great to work with. They worked closely with our insurance company & kept us informed throughout the process. We had an issue with the roof install that needed to be addressed and Skyline Imaging worked with us to make sure we were happy with the finished product. I would definitely recommend working with these guys!

Drafts, fogged glass, damaged frames, difficult operation, moisture problems, and visible deterioration can all be signs that replacement may be worthwhile. An assessment can help determine what condition the existing windows are in and what options for window installation make sense.
Energy-efficient replacement windows can reduce drafts and improve insulation, which may help reduce heating and cooling costs. Actual savings depend on the existing windows, replacement products, installation, and other factors affecting the home.
Common options include double-hung, casement, awning, sliding, and picture windows. You can also compare different frame materials, glass packages, finishes, and other features depending on the product.
Not necessarily. Some homeowners replace windows in stages, while others prefer to complete several rooms or the whole house at once. The condition of the existing windows and your plans for the home can help determine what approach makes sense.
Window replacement can be coordinated with siding replacement or other exterior remodeling work. Planning the projects together can help the new windows, trim, and siding work together properly.
Door replacement can include entry doors, patio doors, swing doors, and other exterior door options. Available materials, styles, finishes, and configurations vary by product.
A new exterior door with appropriate insulation and weather sealing can help reduce drafts around the entry. Performance depends on the door system, glass, frame, installation, and condition of the surrounding opening.
Full-frame replacement involves replacing more of the existing window assembly, while a pocket installation uses the existing frame when its condition allows. The appropriate installation method depends on the existing window and the requirements of the project.
Legacy Window & Door carries products from manufacturers including Andersen, Pella, and ProVia. Available products and configurations vary, so we can help you compare options for your home.
The price depends on factors such as the number and size of the windows, materials, glass options, installation requirements, and other project details. Legacy Window & Door provides exceptional customer service throughout the process, starting with a free estimate so you can get a better idea of what your particular replacement project will cost.
