Window Replacement in Richmond, Chesterfield & Henrico

New windows installed by local, owner-operated teams — 30 years of experience, honest recommendations, and workmanship built to last.

Commonwealth Construction & Remodelinginstalls and replaces windows for homeowners throughout Richmond, Chesterfield County, Henrico County, and the surrounding Virginia communities.

Window replacement is what we do most, backed by 30 years of hands-on experience and seven experienced installation crews. When you work with us, you deal directly with the business owners — not a commissioned sales rep or a national call center — so the recommendations you get are the ones that actually make sense for your home, your budget, and how long you plan to stay in it.

A window replacement is more than a swap of glass. Old windows often hide problems behind the trim, and part of doing the job right is catching what a quick installer would paper over. We take the time to explain your options clearly, price the work honestly, and finish on time and on budget — with some of the best warranties in exterior remodeling standing behind it.

Why Homeowners Choose Commonwealth for Window Replacement

Replacing your windows is a real investment, and who installs them matters as much as which windows you choose. Here's what sets Commonwealth apart for homeowners across Richmond, Chesterfield, and Henrico.

You work directly with the owners.

No high-pressure sales appointment, no "sign tonight for this price" tactics — just a straight conversation about what your home needs.

We repair what's behind the window, too.

Rotted framing and wood rot are common in older Virginia homes. We handle structural repairs alongside your window replacement so the new windows sit on a sound, sealed opening.

Local experience that reads your home right.

Thirty years working in the Richmond area means we understand how local homes, weather, and older construction affect a window project.

Honest, range-based pricing.

We explain what drives cost and give you clear expectations up front, rather than a one-size number designed to win the sale.

Craftsmanship with real warranties.

Every install is completed with attention to detail and backed by strong product and workmanship warranties.

A clean, careful job site.

Your home gets treated with respect from start to finish — we protect your floors and landscaping, work efficiently, and clean up so the only sign we were there is a better-looking window.

Serving Richmond, Chesterfield & Henrico County, VA.

We install replacement windows throughout the Richmond metro area, with a focus on Richmond, Chesterfield County, and Henrico County, plus surrounding Virginia communities. As a locally owned and operated company native to the area, we're a short drive away and invested in the neighborhoods we serve.

The Richmond area is a mix of everything from century-old homes in the city's historic districts to mid-century brick ranches and colonials across Chesterfield and Henrico and newer construction in the growing suburbs. Many of these homes still have their original single-pane or early double-pane windows, which were never built for the demands our climate puts on them. Central Virginia summers are long, hot, and humid, with stretches well into the 90s, while winters bring freezing nights, the occasional ice storm, and sharp day-to-night temperature swings. That constant expansion and contraction, combined with year-round humidity and wind-driven rain from summer thunderstorms and the tail ends of tropical systems, is hard on aging windows.

For homeowners here, the things worth watching are the ones our weather tends to expose first: condensation or fogging between the panes (a sign the seal has failed), drafts and rising energy bills as old weatherstripping breaks down, and soft or discolored wood around the frame, where our humidity quietly feeds rot behind the trim. Because so many area homes are brick with wood window framing, that hidden rot is one of the most common issues we find — and one of the most important to catch before new windows go in. When we quote a window project in the Richmond area, we're reading it through 30 years of local experience with exactly these homes and this climate.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can tell you Tim’s work is exceptional.  They made our vision come true on both decks they built for us.  Not only that they saw some items that were done incorrectly on the original construction of our home and corrected so we would not have issues.  The are very easy to work with and they are very reasonable pricing and detailed to their work

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Extremely responsive. A contractor who doesn't give you the run around, does what he says he's going to do and does it well. Highly recommend. Will use again!
