Replacement windows and doors are custom made. After the homeowner signs and you take final measurements, there’s often a wait of several weeks before install, and the customer has already paid a deposit. Obravetta answers fast, sends proposals with clear options, and keeps the homeowner updated from order to install so the wait doesn’t turn into worried calls. From $27/month.
Selling the windows is half the job. Then comes the final measure, the factory order and a wait the homeowner can’t see.
They paid a deposit and nothing seems to be happening. That’s when doubt creeps in, and the calls start.
The companies with the best reviews aren’t always the fastest. They’re the ones that keep customers informed.
One window replacement from the first call to the review. Here’s where window and door companies lose the sale or the customer’s goodwill.
| Stage | What's happening | Where it dies | What has to run automatically |
|---|---|---|---|
| The call | Drafty, foggy windows | Voicemail, they call someone else | Missed-call text back and a consultation link |
| The quote | Consultation and options | One price, no comparison | Proposal with product and glass options |
| The decision | Homeowner compares | Quote goes cold | Follow-up that answers questions |
| Signing | Deposit and final measure | Deposit chased | E-signature and deposit link |
| The wait | Weeks for the order | “Did you forget about us?” | Order-status texts |
| After | Install and final payment | No review | Pay link and a review request |
Not a feature list. This is one customer when the follow-up and order updates run for you.
A homeowner calls about drafty windows. They get a text back with a link to book a consultation.
Missed-call text back · Online bookingYou send two product lines with glass options and prices.
Proposals with e-signatureFollow-ups explain the differences and answer questions.
Unlimited automated workflowsThey sign and pay a deposit on their phone. The final measure is booked.
Deposit links · SchedulingTexts go out when the order is placed, when it ships and when install is scheduled.
Text templates · Appointment remindersThe final invoice goes out with a pay link, followed by a review request.
Invoicing · Automated review requestsReplacement windows are a big purchase and homeowners compare. Put in your own numbers to see what closing a few more quotes is worth.
The math: quotes per month × (close rate with option proposals and follow-up − close rate today) × your average job. A single door and a whole house of windows differ a lot, so use your own average.
Window sales has a reputation for pressure. A clear, patient company stands out.
Are these the right windows? Will I actually save on energy? When will they arrive? Will they install it right?
Clear options, honest savings information and steady updates answer most of that.
On Obravetta Growth and Obravetta Pro, a professional window and door website is built for you as part of the plan, not quoted separately by an agency for a few thousand dollars.
Window and door visitors are comparing products and companies. Your site should show what you install, real photos, honest savings information and an easy way to book a consultation.
On Obravetta Starter at $27 you get the builder and build it yourself. On Growth and Pro we build it for you.
Obravetta isn’t a product configurator. It’s the whole customer side of the business, and for a window and door company it breaks into six jobs.

It depends on your work. Product configuration, supplier ordering and measurement tools often come from your manufacturer, and Obravetta doesn't replace them. Obravetta handles the customer side: answering calls, booking consultations, sending proposals with options, follow-up, order and install updates, invoicing, reviews and the website.
ENERGY STAR says homeowners could save an average of about 12% annually on energy costs by replacing poor-performing windows with ENERGY STAR certified models, and that savings vary by climate. Share that honestly and avoid promising a specific number for a specific house.
Tell them where things stand. Custom windows and doors often take weeks to arrive after the final measure. A text when the order is placed, when it ships and when it arrives, plus an install reminder, prevents most of the worried calls.
Give clear options and follow up. Put a couple of product lines or glass packages with prices on one proposal, explain the differences in plain English, and let automatic follow-ups answer questions while they compare.
Most window and door companies do, since products are made to order. Obravetta lets you add a deposit link right on the proposal so the customer signs and pays at once. Deposit, cancellation and contract rules vary by state, so check yours.
No, and we'd rather say so. We don't configure window sizes or grids, track factory orders or connect to supplier ordering systems. Many companies use their manufacturer's tools for that and run the customer side in Obravetta.
Ask after the install, and again after the first season when they notice the difference. Google's own Business Profile documentation says more reviews and positive ratings can help local ranking.
Importing your customer list from a CSV takes an afternoon, and missed-call text back plus quote follow-up can be live the same day. The part with a real wait is 10DLC registration, the carrier approval required to send business texts in the US, which takes a few business days on any platform. A built-for-you website takes longer because we need your photos, products and service area.
Yes. Obravetta Starter at $27/month is one seat and covers proposals, follow-up, invoicing and reviews. AI voice answering and the built-for-you website start on Growth at $97, which covers up to three users. Companies with salespeople, installers and an office usually need Pro at $297 for unlimited seats.
Fourteen days is long enough to import your customers, get texting approved, and have quote follow-up and order updates running. It doesn’t need a demo call.
