Upgrade Your Windows And Your Entire Home Experience
Windows are one of the most important elements of your home—they affect lighting, insulation, aesthetics, and even security. Our expert team is here to make your window upgrades simple and stress-free. From repairing cracked glass and broken frames to installing energy-efficient replacements, we help Evanston homeowners enjoy brighter, more comfortable spaces with windows that work as beautifully as they look.
What’s the difference between window repair and window replacement?
Window repair addresses specific issues like broken glass, hardware, or frames. Window replacement involves removing the old unit entirely and installing a new one for better energy efficiency and function.
How do I know if I need new windows or just a repair?
If the window is structurally sound and the issue is minor—like foggy glass or a stuck latch—window repair may be enough. But if the frame is damaged or the window is over 20 years old, window replacement is usually the better option.
Are energy-efficient windows worth the investment?
Yes. Energy-efficient windows reduce heating and cooling costs, eliminate drafts, and may qualify you for tax credits or rebates.
How much does window replacement cost in Evanston?
Costs vary based on size, materials, and quantity. On average, homeowners spend $500–$1,000 per window. Hammell Homes offers honest, detailed quotes with no hidden fees.
Better Windows. Better Living.
High-quality windows are more than a cosmetic upgrade—they improve energy efficiency, reduce noise, and increase your home’s value. Drafty or damaged windows can lead to moisture issues, rising utility costs, and uncomfortable indoor temperatures. At Hammell Homes, we deliver professional window replacement and window repair solutions designed to solve these problems at their source. Whether you’re dealing with an old window that won’t close or planning a full-home upgrade, we make the process simple, seamless, and built to last.

What Homeowners Say About Our Window Services
“We had a great experiance with Hammell Homes. Rick’s team (contractors, tile installer, electrician and plumbers) were professional and easy to work with. Our bathroom turned out stellar. We selected artisan materials that can be challenging to install, and Hammell Homes understood what was required and everything went seamlessly. We’d work with them again.”
“Rick and his crew are amazing! We’ve had both bathroom and kitchen renovations done by them, and they worked diligently and did a beautiful job on both! We receive compliments all the time on our new kitchen. Rick is also very communicative throughout the entire renovation process. Would highly recommend Hammell Homes!”
