To replace one window fast, the window has to be in stock. When a common size in white vinyl is on the shelf, JMB Builders can measure, pick it up and often install it the same week. A color, grilles or odd size is custom ordered, with the lead time on the quote. One window is a welcome job across the Twin Cities metro, priced per window, window included. Photo reply within one business day, or a free in-home estimate.
- In stock means on the shelf, often same week
- Custom ordered: lead time written on the quote
- Priced per window, window included
Speed on one window comes down to one question: is the window in stock. Our supplier keeps common sizes of white vinyl sliders, double-hungs and some casements on the shelf. If one of those fits your opening, there is no factory order. We measure, confirm the size, pick up the window and install it, and that can often land in the same week. We say often because it depends on the shelf that day and our schedule, and we tell you the date when we have it.
Anything built for you is custom ordered: a tan, bronze or black frame, grilles, obscure or triple-pane glass, a wood interior, or a size between stock sizes. Custom ordered windows take longer to arrive and the lead time is written on the quote. We do not promise a number of days on a custom order because the factory sets it, not us.
An in-stock window still gets a real install. The opening is measured before pickup, the old window comes out, the new one is set with shims, foam and sealant or a sill pan, and the trim is finished inside and out. If the opening is boarded after a break-in or storm, it stays boarded until the window is in. Painting is quoted as a separate line, or paint it yourself.

What you supply
- Photos of the window from inside and outside, and one of the whole wall

- Flexibility on color and glass if you want the in-stock path: white vinyl, clear low-e glass
- Clear access to the window inside on install day
What JMB supplies
- A check of what is in stock at ABC Supply in your size before the quote
- A measure of the opening before the window is picked up
- The window, in stock in options such as MI Windows or Silver Line, or custom ordered when you choose
- Removal of the old window or the temporary board, and haul-away
- Sill pan or flashing tape, shims, foam, sealant and exterior capping or trim
- Interior stops or casing, primed and caulked; painting quoted as a separate line
- Photos of the 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:
- In-stock size in white vinyl vs. a custom ordered color, glass or size
- Style: a slider or double-hung off the shelf vs. a casement or picture window
- Insert into a sound frame vs. full frame when the sill is rotted
- Exterior finish and interior trim kept, matched or replaced
- Second story or hard-to-reach openings
- Boarding or securing an open hole until the install if one is needed
Send a rough width and height with your photos. That lets us check the shelf and tell you in the reply whether an in-stock window fits.
How long it takes
In stock: measured, picked up and often installed the same week, with the install itself half a day. Custom ordered: the factory lead time is written on the quote, then the same half-day install.

Situations and options
In stock, white vinyl
A common size slider, double-hung or casement in white with clear low-e glass, on the supplier's shelf. The fastest path for one window, often the same week.
Custom ordered, worth the wait
A matched color, grilles, obscure or triple-pane glass, or an odd size. Built to your opening, with the lead time written on the quote before you sign.
Boarded now, window soon
A broken window is boarded and sealed so the house is closed up, then the in-stock window goes in when it is scheduled. The board comes off the same day the window goes in.
One Window, Same Week When It Is in Stock: questions, answered
How fast can one window be replaced?
If a common size in white vinyl is in stock at our supplier, JMB Builders can measure, pick it up and often install it the same week, depending on the shelf and our schedule. A custom ordered window takes longer and its lead time is written on the quote. Send photos and we reply within one business day, or book a free in-home estimate.
What does in stock mean for a replacement window?
It means the window already exists on the shelf at our supplier in that size, color and glass, so there is no factory build. Common sizes in white vinyl are what is usually stocked. Anything else, from a color to grilles to an odd size, is custom ordered and built for you.
Can you promise the window will be in this week?
Not until we have checked the shelf and our schedule. What we promise is a reply within one business day to your photos. If an in-stock window fits, the quote gives you the install date; if it is custom ordered, the quote gives you the lead time. We do not guess at days.
Can I get a colored or grid window fast?
Usually not. Colors, grille patterns and special glass are built to order, and the factory sets the lead time, which we write on the quote. If the opening has to be closed quickly and the look matters, the in-stock white window goes in now and the custom match is a separate decision.
Does a fast in-stock window get the same install as any other?
Yes. The opening is measured before pickup, the old window comes out, the new one is set with shims, foam and sealant or a sill pan, and the trim is finished inside and out. In stock changes the wait, not the work.
What if my window is broken and open right now?
Board it, or we board it, so the house is closed and secure. Then the in-stock window goes in when it is scheduled and the board comes off that day. If only custom fits, the board stays up for the lead time on the quote.
