It’s morning! You take a stretch, open up the curtains and see nature’s bounties outside through the window. How would a home without windows be? Dark and dull…
Then how about a window which needs repairs? Should the repair costs frighten you?
Before the price stops you from replacing your windows, read this article to understand how different window repairs are charged?
Because if you know the overall cost of your window replacement, it can help you keep the project within your budget and avoid any surprise costs down the road.
How Much Does Window Replacement Cost?
It depends upon a variety of factors. So, you can roughly estimate a typical window replacement cost to lie between $200 and $1,800 per window. However, the national average is around $100 to $650 per window due to the major factors like the type of glass used or material of the window frame.
With the Average Labor Costs to be almost $38 per hour, this adds to the overall window replacement cost to be approximately $100 to $300 per window. The average price to replace windows on a 3-bedroom house is between $3,000 to $10,000.
Does it seem too much?
If we calculate the cost per hour rates of these windows, 650$ will cost only 0.09$/hour in one year and in a ten-year time, it’ll be only 0.01$/hour. In this way, an 1800$ window will cost 0.03$/ hour in ten years. Even the 3000$ window’s original cost will be reduced to 0.04$/hour in ten years.
Not to mention, a new set of replacement windows can provide your home a much-needed face-lift, increase your home’s energy efficiency and the best part, stop the cold air from coming in. Consider an example of UPVC double glazed windows, these typically last from 20 to 25 years.
Now, think again! Don’t these facts and calculations make the overall financial investment worthwhile over the years?
