What moves the price

  • Frame material — uPVC windows cost far less than aluminium or timber frames
  • Window style — casements are cheapest, while sash, tilt-and-turn and bay windows cost more
  • Size — larger windows need more glass and heavier frames
  • Colour and finish — woodgrain and coloured uPVC cost more than white
  • Number of windows — replacing a whole house at once brings the price per window down
  • Glass upgrades — acoustic, security and triple glazing add to each window

How to pay less

  • Replace all the windows at once, as installers price double glazing lower per window on bigger orders
  • Choose white uPVC casement windows unless the house needs sash or timber for its character
  • Get new glass units fitted into sound frames instead of replacing the whole window

Before you book

  • Use a FENSA or CERTASS registered installer so the windows are certified under the Building Regulations
  • Listed buildings and many conservation areas need consent before windows are changed
  • Ask whether the double glazing guarantee is insurance-backed in case the installer stops trading
  • Check that bedroom windows meet fire escape rules and that trickle vents are fitted where needed
