Rosati Windows Reviews 2026
Rosati Windows is a Columbus, Ohio based window and door manufacturer and installer that has been in business since 2000. The company manufactures and installs their own replacement and new construction windows and doors throughout the Columbus Ohio metro market. Rosati Windows And Doors focuses on a both the do it yourself approach (where you buy direct from Rosati and do the installation yourself or hire an independent installer), as well providing a team of installers to do the work professionally. Generally, the company receives okay to decent to good online consumer reviews (a bit of a mixed bag). Scroll down to read all of our Rosati Windows reviews.
Our Verdict: My big issue with Rosati is not knowing the overall quality of their line of vinyl windows and patio doors. The numbers on the NFRC.org look decent, but the company provides very little information on their site about their specific features, performance data and components. They also mention their TimberView series, which is their wood clad offering. Again, not much there in terms of specifics.

What They Sell
The company manufactures their own line of vinyl windows, although they don't come right out and say this on their website. The only series mentioned by name is the TimberView - a wood clad window (which I believe they must manufacture as well). As to the vinyl windows they sell, their is some performance data listed on the NFRC.org website.
Generally, the numbers look decent, but I would love to know the air infiltration window ratings on their double hungs and fixed frame picture windows. This would give me a better understanding of the overall quality and energy efficiency of their main product line(s). Scroll down for our Rosati Windows reviews.
Rosati Windows Warranty
The company provides a “just okay” window warranty when compared to other manufactures (but their labor provision is quite good for the original buyer). The product and labor warranty are for the original buyer and are non transferrable to subsequent homeowners. The warranty term is 10 years on both the product and labor.
Specifically, the windows and doors that they install will be free from any defects. If any manufacturing defects exists, the company will repair or replace them at no charge to the customers (after a company inspection of course). While the labor portion is quite generous, the idea that the warranty on the products is only 10 years is pretty weak in my opinion. Most companies geared toward DIY home improvement customers are going to offer a more budget product line (generally speaking).

Are Rosati Windows Any Good?
| Review Category | Homeowner Experience |
|---|---|
| Rosati Quote | Approximately $3,000 less than the Pella 250 and Universal Windows Direct UniShield quotes |
| Sales Process | Relaxed, straightforward, and free of pressure to purchase upgrades |
| Installation | All 13 double-hung windows installed in one day |
| Installation Crew | Efficient, professional, and thorough with cleanup |
| Project Timeline | Approximately six to eight weeks from contract signing to installation |
| Local Manufacturing | Windows manufactured locally in Hilliard, Ohio |
| Overall Recommendation | Positive experience; homeowner would use Rosati again |
"We had Rosati install 13 double-hung replacement windows, and the entire job was finished in one day. The crew worked efficiently, cleaned up well, and the installation went without any issues.
We compared four companies, including Pella, Universal Windows Direct, and Renewal by Andersen. Rosati's quote was far more competitive, $3K less than Pella for their 250 and Universal Windows Direct for their Unishield Plus, but what really stood out was the relaxed sales process. There was no pressure to buy upgrades, and we liked that the windows are manufactured locally in Hilliard.
Our project took about six to eight weeks from signing to installation, which was exactly what we were told. Between our experience and several positive recommendations from neighbors, we'd definitely use Rosati again."

Vinyl Design vs Rosati Windows In Ohio
| Window Brand | Project Fit | Editor's Assessment |
|---|---|---|
| Vinyl Design Windows | Lower-cost replacement window option | Worth considering for a budget-conscious project and shorter ownership timeline |
| Rosati Windows | Available for purchase in Ohio and potentially suitable for DIY installation | Another affordable local option to compare with Vinyl Design |
| Premium Replacement Windows | Better suited for a long-term or forever home | May provide stronger long-term performance but at a higher upfront cost |
"Do you have any opinions on Vinyl Design windows made in Ohio? They are well priced out from what we can tell and we are looking for a DIY solution that will save us money and still make our home comfortable during the winter and summer months. Currently, we have old single pane aluminum windows that you can just feel letting the cold and heat in. Can you help?"

Editor's Advice:
Gianna, I'll send you links to my Vinyl Design page and our Rosati Windows reviews page as places to start. Both might fit the bill for a relatively low cost option on the home you are living in. I'm going to assume that you're not staying in the home long term (otherwise I would have very different advice for you).
Additionally, I'll send you my list of brands for you to check out. The do it yourself route can be a bit of a tricky wicket, but Rosati is definitely available for purchase (they are Columbus, Ohio base fyi). Let me know if you have any additional questions!

"We live just outside of Columbus, Ohio and need to replace 8 double hung windows come this summer. Per your advice, we've collected a number of bids that we would love to get your "take" on if you would indulge us. Additionally, I would love to see them ranked if that is possible (but not necessary if too difficult).
What's your opinion of Alside? We're mainly looking for something energy efficient (Energy star complaint) from a well reviewed company. While I originally wanted steel reinforcement for longevity, I was told that’s kind of an outdated concept now. Apparently the Innergy thermal reinforcement (the ProVia option) is more efficient, but it does cost a more, which does make sense.
Alside Ultramaxx Series - $5,845
Harvey Slimline Series - $6,380
Vinylmax Franklin Series - $6,650
Simonton 5500 Series - $6,880
Provia Endure Series - $7,380
Soft-Lite Classic Plus Series - $10,000
Rosati Windows Series - $12,170"

So I will list them from best to "worst" on overall value (quality of window and price quoted). I hope this helps and let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Rosati Windows vs Zen
Hi Tim, I live in the Columbus, Ohio area and I am shopping for 8 double hung windows about 24” x 62” each. I received 2 quotes thus far and wasn’t able to get a call back from Zen Windows...just never returned my email. I received a quote for around $5,300 from Hegg Windows for the ProVia Endure Windows, full screen, double pane. And the 2nd quote is from Rosati Windows for about the same type window for around $5, 500.
First question is have you heard anything good or bad about Rosati and their product more specifically? Their installation and customer service seems to be rated high overall. Same with Hegg Windows. Do you think the quotes are a bit high? Do you think that Zen Windows uses a better product than the ProVia Endure? Wondering if I should try them again and see if they respond this time.
I just emailed you regarding the ProVia and Rosati quotes and was waiting for Zen to get back to me. They finally did right after I hit send on my first email to you. Figures. So Zen in New Albany, Ohio came back with quote for $4,160 for their Nirvana line for 8 vinyl, double hung windows. And to recap Rosati was $5,500 and ProVia Endure $5,300.
Which is best quality? And...Zen location carries Soft lite, Alside and Joyce Windows. If they are rebranding how do I know for sure if I am getting Soft lite or inferior Alside? I mean if they are rebranding couldn’t they easily say it is Softlite rather than Alside? How would one know? Love the Rosati Windows reviews on the site.

Olivia, I have heard a little about Rosati Windows, but nothing approaching a very comprehensive opinion. They seem to get good reviews. As to the quality of their windows, I couldn't say. The ProVia Endure is an excellent window and that is a fair price on that quote.
Compare replacement window reviews from the most popular brands:
The Zen quote on the Classic is excellent, but you don't know if you are buying the Soft-Lite or Alside. I believe with Soft-Lite, the Soft-Lite logo should be stamped on the lift handle. Further, I don't recall how Alside marks their windows. Also, I would call up the Zen rep and say you want to make sure you are getting Soft-Lite and to tell you exactly where the logo can be found on the window.
I would say the Zen quote (assuming Soft-Lite) is probably the better value, but if I was planning to stay in my home long term, I would probably strongly consider going with the ProVia Endure. It's quite a nice top tier window.
