When it comes to vinyl replacement windows there are many styles and options to choose from. In general, you can expect new windows to cost between $500.00 – $1,800.00 per window. Some Things that contribute to the cost of vinyl replacement windows are:

• Window Series: Most window replacement companies, and major window manufacturers offer windows in a 3 different series, Entry level, Mid-level, and Premium level.
• Window Style: With window styles it is important to understand the different features and functions they offer. Window style will affect the cost as well as the labor required to install the window.
• Widow options: Window options include colors, finishes, glass, grids, locks, hardware, and internal blinds. The options you choose for the project will have a direct impact on the cost. The more detailed or time consuming the installation process is for your window replacement contractor the more the labor will affect the cost. This can include the existing type of windows being removed, size of window, location of window, style of window, interior trim being replaced, exterior trim being replaced, and custom capping used.

Does your home have old windows? Thinking it may be time to replace them? Here are 4 signs that it’s time for replacement windows:

• Non-Operable: Windows that are hard to open and close or won’t stay open are an indicator the window may be warping, and the components used for operation have failed.
• Drafty: Windows can become drafty over time due to age, use, and shrinkage causing cracks leading to air infiltration.
• Foggy/Condensation: Windows that are foggy or have condensation between the glass are the result of seal failure and will require a window replacement to correct this issue.
• Rotten: Wood windows can show signs of rot due to constant exposure to moisture, lack of maintenance, or improper installation. This will lead to difficulty operating windows due to warping and will eventually cause complete window failure

Most window replacement projects can be completed in 1 to 2 days. This is going to depend on a few things, the style of windows being installed, and the total number of windows to be installed. A typical window replacement project will be completed in the following order of phases:

• Removal Phase: Removal of the existing window
• Installation Phase: Installation of new window
• Customer Satisfaction Phase: Walk-thru inspection to ensure you are completely satisfied
