Buying replacement windows for your home is a crucial investment, from reducing your energy bills to keeping your home comfortable in all seasons. But it also often comes with a large initial expense. That is why it is important to understand the factors that are behind the total cost. This way, you will be able to tell where to save money and where you might want to splurge. Here is a layman’s guide to window replacement from a trusted window and bathroom contractor.

Size of the Project

Do you need to replace a single window or will you remodel the entire interior by upgrading all of your home windows? Will you also replace the frame instead of just the unit? Generally, $50 to $100 of additional cost is expected for new construction window installation. Fortunately, choosing to install five to eight windows at once can get you discounts, proving to be more cost-effective.

Installation Costs

Similar to a tub replacement cost, a window installation cost will vary depending on materials, such as aluminum or vinyl, and the type of window. As expected, high-end materials and features will incur additional costs. Other installations can include removal, disposal and cleanup.

Style of Windows

There is a wide selection of window styles on the market that you can choose from. These styles can affect the price of the total installation cost. Double-hung is a style of window that tends to be the least expensive to purchase and install. 

Features to enhance window performance also affect the installation price. A double-pane window is a standard in an energy-efficient home. These windows have an airtight pocket between the panes filled with inert gas to slow down heat transfer, saving you on utility bills. As a result, these tend to be more costly than others.

Purchasing new windows can help keep your home beautiful and energy-efficient all year round. Turn Impact Home Solutions for premium window replacement products and services.
