Mobile home window replacement in Minnesota needs a mobile-home window made for that opening and wall, because manufactured home windows are a different size and construction than site-built windows. JMB Builders does it mostly across the north metro: Zimmerman, Elk River, Big Lake and Isanti. We check the order, pull the old unit, fix the opening and seal the new one. Priced per window.

  • Priced per window, supplied or labor only
  • Made-for-mobile-home units, not site-built
  • Quote from photos, reply within one business day

Manufactured homes use windows built for manufactured homes. They are sized differently from site-built windows, and the walls are thinner. Most are held one of two ways: by clips or a clamp ring that squeezes the wall from inside and out, or by a flange screwed to the outside wall and covered with trim. A standard replacement window made for a stick-built house does not fit the opening or the wall depth without reframing.

So the first job is finding out what you have: the window size, the mounting type and the wall thickness. Mobile home windows are sold by mobile home supply stores, some lumberyards and online sellers, and we can check your order against your photos before you buy, or order for you. The wrong mounting type is the most common mistake.

On install day the old window comes out, the opening is checked for soft wall at the bottom corners, rot is repaired, and the new unit is set in sealant, fastened the way its maker says and trimmed. We work in parks and on private lots across the north metro and the rest of the Twin Cities.

Three photos and a sentence is enough: a reply within one business day, or ask for a free in-home estimate. Or text the photos to 763-250-3621.

Photos (optional)

Up to 3: one wide shot of the area, one close-up of the opening or trim, one of anything you're unsure about.

How do you want your quote?

Free, no obligation. Every quote is written and itemized, so you can compare it line by line.

What you supply

  • Photos of each window inside and out, and any label on the frame
  • The size of each window or the listing you want to buy
  • The windows if you already bought them; otherwise we order them
  • Park approval if your park requires it for exterior changes

What JMB supplies

  • A check of mounting type, size and wall depth against your order before you buy
  • Removal and haul-away of the old windows
  • Rot repair at the bottom of the opening, quoted first
  • Butyl tape or sealant and fasteners as the window maker calls for
  • Clips or clamp rings set, or flanges fastened and trimmed outside
  • Interior trim reset or replaced
  • Photos of each finished window in your job folder

How it is priced: per window

Quoted in writing from your photos, with a reply within one business day. What moves the number:

  • Windows supplied by us vs. windows you bought
  • Clip or clamp-ring mount vs. a flanged exterior mount
  • Rot or soft wall at the opening
  • Changing a window size or style
  • How many windows in one visit

Send a photo of each window from inside and outside and a close-up of how the frame is held in.

How long it takes

Most mobile home windows go in quickly once the right units are here: several in a day. Rot repair at an opening adds time.

Mobile Home Window Replacement — Manufactured Home Windows Set Right: questions, answered

Can I put regular windows in a mobile home?

Not without reframing. Mobile home windows are a different size and construction than site-built windows, and the walls are thinner. A standard window needs a different opening and wall depth. The simple fix is a window made for manufactured homes.

Where do I buy mobile home replacement windows?

Mobile home supply stores, some lumberyards and online sellers carry them. Buy the same size and the same mounting type as the old window. Send us the listing and photos before you order and we check it, or we order the windows for you.

How do I know what type of mobile home window I have?

Look at how it is held in. If you see clips or a ring around the inside frame, it is a clamp-type window. If the inside has no clips and the outside has a flange screwed through it, it is a flanged window. A photo of each side tells us.

Do you replace mobile home windows in Zimmerman, Elk River and Big Lake?

Yes. We are based in Zimmerman and replace mobile home windows across Elk River, Big Lake, Isanti, Princeton and the rest of the north metro and Twin Cities.

What if the wall under my mobile home window is soft?

Water got in at the old window. The rotted wall at the bottom of the opening is cut out and rebuilt before the new window goes in, or the new one will leak and sag. We quote it from your photos.

Can you install mobile home windows I already bought?

Yes, labor only. We supply the sealant and fasteners and set them to the maker's instructions. If a window is the wrong size or mount, we tell you before the old one comes out.
