Frequently Asked Questions
Window Depot of the Ozarks offers replacement windows for a variety of home styles and needs. Depending on your home and existing window openings, options can include double-hung, sliding, casement, picture, specialty-shape and other replacement window styles. Our team can help you compare your options and determine which windows make sense for your Springfield-area home.
Replacement windows are generally installed into an existing window opening without removing the entire surrounding wall structure. New construction windows are typically used when a home is being built or when a much larger portion of the existing window opening is being removed. The right option depends on your home’s existing construction and the scope of your project.
The best window style depends on how you use the room, how much ventilation you want, the size and location of the opening, and the appearance you want to achieve. For example, double-hung windows provide convenient ventilation and operation, while picture windows can provide a larger uninterrupted view. Our team can help you compare styles based on your home and priorities.
Patio doors are available in several configurations and styles. Sliding patio doors are a popular choice for homes because they provide access to outdoor areas without requiring a door to swing into the room. Depending on your home’s opening and project goals, other patio door configurations may also be available.

Windows and doors affect several aspects of a home, including comfort, appearance, natural light, ventilation, security and energy performance.

Yes. Window replacement can be performed during colder months. Professional installers work on the home in sections so the amount of time an opening remains exposed is minimized.
