In Pontotoc, MS, quality window replacement typically ranges from $425–$920 per unit (installed), depending on material (vinyl, wood-clad, fiberglass), size, and glass package — while entry door systems run $1,690–$4,080. Patio door replacements (sliding or French) average $2,380–$5,250. These reflect installed costs using premium, locally proven brands like Pella, Andersen, and ProVia — not imported budget lines prone to humidity failure. Key pricing factors include: retrofit vs. full-frame replacement, frame condition, Low-E/argon upgrades, and whether storm damage allows insurance coverage. At Tekton Exteriors, Mississippi, we provide fixed-price quotes with no hidden fees — and frequently help Pontotoc homeowners offset costs through insurance claims, federal tax credits (up to $600/window through 2032), or 0% financing.

Most Pontotoc window and door projects are completed in 1–3 days — significantly faster than regional averages — thanks to Tekton Exteriors, Mississippi’s streamlined process and dedicated crews. Simple retrofits (insert replacements) on 8–12 standard windows often finish in a single day, while full-frame removals or multi-unit projects (e.g., entry door + 6 windows + patio door) may take 2–3 days. We minimize disruption by staging materials off-site, working methodically room-by-room, and cleaning thoroughly each evening. Timeline depends on: number of units, complexity (bay windows, custom shapes), frame repairs needed, and weather (we avoid exterior work during heavy rain). Critically, scheduling is predictable: once you approve your quote, we lock in a firm start date — no endless “we’ll call you” limbo. For storm-damaged homes, we prioritize emergency boarding within 24 hours and permanent replacement within 5–7 business days. Ready to upgrade without the wait? Let’s get you on the calendar.

Whether you need full-frame or retrofit window replacement in Pontotoc depends on your existing frame condition, window type, and performance goals — and Tekton Exteriors, Mississippi’s expert assessment determines the optimal path. Retrofit (pocket) installs are ideal when original wood or vinyl frames are structurally sound, square, and free of rot — common in homes built after 1990. They’re faster, less invasive, and preserve interior/exterior trim. However, if frames show water damage, warping, or poor flashing (frequent in older Pontotoc homes near creeks or with brick veneer), full-frame replacement is essential to restore structural integrity and prevent future leaks. Full-frame also allows upgrading to larger glass area or different styles (e.g., double-hung to casement). Our evaluation includes moisture meter readings, laser-level checks, and visual inspection of sheathing — so you get the right solution, not the cheapest. Most Pontotoc projects mix both methods: retrofits where possible, full-frame where needed. Let us assess your home’s specific needs.

Absolutely — and in Pontotoc’s hot, humid climate, ENERGY STAR®-certified windows deliver measurable ROI through lower cooling costs, improved comfort, and extended HVAC life. Quality double-pane units with Low-E3 coating and argon gas reduce solar heat gain by up to 40% compared to single-pane or clear double-pane, keeping interiors 5–8°F cooler in summer without cranking the AC. Over 10 years, this can save $1,200–$2,500+ on energy bills — offsetting much of the upgrade cost. Triple-pane adds even greater sound reduction and condensation control, ideal for homes near Highway 15 or the railroad. Plus, newer windows block 95%+ of UV rays, protecting floors and furnishings from fading. At Tekton Exteriors, Mississippi, we install only NFRC-rated products with U-factors ≤0.27 and SHGC ≤0.25 — optimized for Southern climates. And with federal tax credits and potential Mississippi Power rebates, the payback period shrinks further. Want to see your potential savings? We’ll run a personalized energy analysis.

Yes — in most cases, Mississippi homeowners insurance does cover storm-damaged windows and doors, but only if you document the damage properly and work with an experienced contractor like Tekton Exteriors, Mississippi. Hail, wind, or tornado impacts that crack glass, warp frames, or compromise seals are typically covered under dwelling protection (Coverage A), especially if damage occurred within the past 12–24 months. However, insurers often deny claims citing “wear and tear” — so immediate, professional documentation is critical. We help Pontotoc homeowners by: 1) Providing free storm inspections with time-stamped photos/videos, 2) Generating Haag-certified damage reports, 3) Meeting with your adjuster to advocate for full replacement (not patch repairs), and 4) Ensuring upgrades meet current code (e.g., impact-resistant glazing in high-wind zones). Note: deductibles apply, but we offer financing to bridge the gap. Don’t wait — storm damage claims have strict filing windows. Contact us within 72 hours of damage for best results.
