Thinking about Xtend Porch Windows but worried about the install? You’re not alone. Many homeowners love the look of Xtend but aren’t sure they’re ready to grab a drill and tackle the project.

Here’s the good news: Xtend was designed by installers to be simple. Pre-drilled holes, color-matched screws, clear instructions, and step-by-step videos mean you don’t need to be a master carpenter to make it happen.

But what if you’d rather not do it yourself? That’s okay too.

Options if You Don’t Want to DIY

  • Hire a local handyman or carpenter — anyone who can hang a door, replace siding, or set a window is more than qualified.

  • Ask your porch or deck builder — most already have the tools and know-how.

  • Phone a friend — many customers tell us it turned into a fun weekend project with a buddy.

Tips for Choosing the Right Help

  • Share our installation instructions ahead of time so your installer knows exactly what’s involved.

  • Look for someone comfortable with basic carpentry, siding, or window work.

  • Expect it to take most of a Saturday — it’s not complicated, but it does take a little time.

Why Xtend Is Different from “Installed-Only” Brands

Some porch window systems only come as a package deal: product + installer. That might sound convenient, but it also means less choice and often higher cost. Xtend gives you flexibility: DIY it, hire local help, or team up with a friend.

And unlike buying a mystery kit off the internet, you’re not left stranded with confusing directions and nobody to talk to. We’re only a phone call away, ready to answer questions, share tips, and make sure your project goes smoothly from start to finish.

Bottom Line

Whether you’re handy or not, you can have a porch you’ll love with Xtend. Designed for simplicity, backed by real people, and flexible enough to fit the way you want to work.
