How Much Does Window Replacement Cost?

Estimate window replacement cost per window — vinyl, aluminum, wood, installation — with the free calculator.

Window replacement is priced per window, but the range is wide because material, size and installation complexity all vary. This guide covers the per-window ranges and a calculator to price the whole job.

THE SHORT ANSWER

The short answer

Windows run $300–$1,200 each installed: vinyl $300–$700, aluminum $400–$900, wood $500–$1,200. A typical 10-window home runs $5,000–$12,000 installed.

01

Materials per window

Vinyl is the most popular — affordable, low-maintenance and energy-efficient. Aluminum is slim and modern but less insulating. Wood is premium and beautiful but needs painting. Fiberglass is strong and efficient but pricier.

  • Vinyl: $300–$700 installed
  • Aluminum: $400–$900 installed
  • Wood: $500–$1,200 installed
  • Fiberglass: $600–$1,500 installed
02

What raises the price

Custom sizes, triple glazing, low-E coatings, grids and tinted glass all add cost. Installation complexity — high floors, brick, stucco, or window wells — raises labor. Full-frame replacement costs more than insert replacement.

03

Labor and installation

Installation runs $150–$400 per window and includes removal, fitting, insulation, flashing and trim. Labor is higher for second-story work and full-frame installs. Old window disposal is often extra.
