How to Use The Window Cost Calculator
Calculating the cost to replace your windows is now simple with our new Window Replacement Cost Calculator. This easy-to-use online tool allows you to get a quick estimate based on your specific windows and needs.
To start, enter the width and height of your window in inches. Next, specify the number of windows you need to replace. Select the type of window from the dropdown menu, whether single-hung, double-hung, casement, and more. Each style has a different base price. You can even enter a custom price per window if needed.
Then, check the box to add energy-efficient glazing for 15% more per window. Or opt for custom frames for a 25% upcharge. Input your local sales tax if applicable. Finally, click Calculate Cost to see the total estimate.
The result summarizes the overall projected cost including the breakdown per window. You’ll see the window dimensions, style, number of windows, whether features like energy-efficient glazing or custom frames are included, cost per window, total before tax, sales tax, and final estimate.
For example, replacing 5 36″ x 60″ double-hung windows with energy-efficient glazing and 7.5% sales tax would calculate as follows. The base double-hung cost is $200 plus $30 for glazing totals $230 per window. With $100 installation per window, it’s $330 each. For 5 windows that’s $1,650. Adding 7.5% sales tax of $123.75 brings the grand total to $1,773.75.

Tips For Buying Replacement Windows
First, figure out why new windows appeal in the first place. Do they promise lower energy bills? Reduced street noise? Curb appeal for resale? Once goals clarify, ponder which window types suit the spaces. Will double-hung designs permit better ventilation? Do cozy casements work for the den?
Next, consider energy savings. Opt for Energy Star-rated models with insulation-boosting low-E coatings or argon gas fills. Though pricier initially, long-term savings will make it worthwhile.
Consider materials too. Vinyl windows cost less but offer fewer aesthetic options. For a woodsy look with insulation perks, there’s reliable wood. Or try fiberglass for durability and efficiency.
Installation also factors into the overall process. Employ experienced pros to ensure proper placement and weatherproofing. Verify warranties to avoid future frustrations.
Finally, think ahead. Will storm-proof glass provide peace of mind? Could low-maintenance tilting mechanisms simplify cleaning? Will chosen styles blend with the home’s existing architecture for curb appeal boosts?
By carefully weighing desires, assessing options and planning ahead, the window replacement process feels, well…smooth as glass! Still have questions? Reach out to discuss. Here’s to happy home upgrades!
