Window Installation & Replacement near you in Singapore

Replacing a window in an existing opening takes 2-4 hours per window for an experienced crew — a whole house is usually 1-3 days. The wait is in manufacturing: made-to-measure windows typically take 2-8 weeks from survey to fitting.

The sealed unit has failed and let moist air in. The fix is usually replacing just the glass unit, not the whole frame — a fraction of full replacement cost. Widespread misting across many windows of the same age suggests the batch is failing and full replacement may be better value.

Windows are priced per opening: the unit itself (frame material, glazing spec, size) plus installation labour. A standard-size replacement in an existing opening is the base case; enlarging openings, upper-floor access, bay windows and heritage styles add meaningfully. Whole-house jobs get per-window discounts.

Yes — pros replace one opening at a time so the house is never fully open, and cold-weather installation is routine in cold climates. Sealants and foams have temperature limits, so extreme cold or rain may shift a schedule, but winter is often the quieter, cheaper season to book.

Like-for-like replacement is usually permit-free, but many places regulate windows through energy codes, safety-glass rules, and egress requirements for bedrooms — and heritage/conservation properties almost always need consent for changes. Your installer should know local rules; ask what paperwork you'll receive at completion.

uPVC/vinyl is the value pick: good insulation, low maintenance, mid-range look. Aluminium gives slim frames and durability (thermally broken frames fix its insulation weakness) at a higher price. Timber looks best and suits period homes but needs maintenance and costs most. Warranty and installer quality matter more than brand marketing.

Only BCA-approved window contractors — this is a licensing regime specific to Singapore introduced to stop fallen-window incidents. For HDB flats the contractor must also be HDB-registered, and facade appearance can't change without approval.
