Best window: February through April, or September through October. Avoid if possible: June through August.
Late winter through early spring hits the pricing sweet spot in most markets: contractor schedules open up after winter, weather is mild enough for quality installation, and summer demand hasn't yet pushed prices up 10–15%. A second window opens in early fall as summer heat breaks and before holiday-season scheduling fills up.
