- 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
