There was an advertisement on the radio back in February by a local
window company saying that they replace windows in the middle of
winter with 50% off of the labor costs. This sounds pretty good to me
given the amount of windows that I'll need to replace.

Now here's the catch. I live in Ottawa (Canada) where the weather
probably averages -15 Celsius (5 Fahrenheit) during winter, without
the wind chill. During extreme cold spells the weather can drop below
-45 Celsius (-49 Fahrenheit) with the wind chill. Hence why the
company is advertising 50% off labor costs for window replacements
during Winter. It can get pretty damn cold!

It could be a good deal. Also depends on just what they are doing. Many
years ago I used to install replacement windows in a little sideline
business that I had. All the work was done from inside the house. It was a
little uncomfortable at times, but the opening was only open for about 10 to
15 minutes per window. You can close the door to a particular room to save
on heat.

Talk to them as far as exactly what they will do, how long it will take.
Not much downside that I know of. New construction goes on year round in
most places today.
