Home : Window Prices : Per Square Foot Costs Window Prices By Size | Editor's Review
2024 replacement window prices by size is not an easy topic to tackle -- here's the deal: many manufacturers price out their windows by the square foot, while others do it by the lineal foot (same basic idea, just a slightly different calculation). But there are so many more factors that go into pricing than simply the size of the window itself. So part of what we do is post our users prices - some by size, some by the number of openings/windows they require.
Vinyl: $400 to $1200
A Word On Inflation Heavy inflation was pretty brutal over the past four years. In 2023, prices cooled way down, but they certainly didn't go back to where they were before. This means replacement windows often still feel expensive for many consumers - hopefully 2024 will not see any significant price spikes. Fiberglass: $900 to $1800
I'm going to provide you with a range of pricing by frame material, as well as give some specific size examples. Check out our latest and greatest replacement window cost estimator to get a pricing bid on however many replacement window or new construction windows you are looking for.
Quick Links
As we get started determining what window prices by size is exactly, keep in mind that there are lots of factors to take into consideration here. Even the smallest window (sold in a big box store) will run you $175 because a factory has cost involved with any assembly line production. The price per square foot will often decrease as you get into "normal sizes" or more popular sizes -- because they're easier and therefore cheaper, to make. As you get into very large windows, the window costs per square foot will increase because the glass is more difficult to procure, the frame must be strong enough to support the weight, etc.

Window Prices By Size 2024Windows Sizes And PricingSimonton 6100 series, sizes are 4 - 35 x 59 and 1 - 35 x 35 Total number is 5 and total price tag is $4720
[Site Editor's Answer]Ank, the better pull is the Ideal 3000. This is the better option and window - worth the $500 extra. No question in my mind.
Best Replacement Windows in MinnesotaLooking for best options in Minnesota. I also got a few quotes, 1 from Window Concepts of Minnesota (Polaris upgraded Ultra Weld called Eco-Smart I guess)
[Site Editor's Answer]Hi Justin. So I would at least collect 4 or 5 bids and then decide on the best approach for the money -- that could be buying windows and having a handyman put them in. I tend to think this only works if the handyman has LOTS of experience doing windows.
Window Prices By Size 2023NT Presidential vs Burris Tectview ACDane and Tim, first, let me start out by saying how much I appreciate all the time and effort you spent on this site. It’s hard to find unbiased information on the Internet. Most of the forums seem to just have a bunch of gobbling guck, but don’t quite get to the question of quality and price point. So I really appreciate it.
[Site Editor's Answer]Steve, first of all, thank you for the kind words about the site. We do work hard to try and provide biased information for homeowners across the United States. So, to the question at hand. I think the prices sound fair because of this single fact they’re all about the same price, and they’re all about the price difference that I would expect from each of these three brands.
Sunrise Restoration V5000 SeriesI have a price quote of $12,000 for 7 sliding windows with following sizes
[Site Editor's Answer]Robert, it seems expensive at first glance, but the two bids are in the same ballpark so that leads me to believe maybe your project requires more work. Anything over $1K per window raises my alarm bells, although those two windows, the Sunrise Restoration V5000 Series and the ProVia Endure series, are both very good. You may want to collect two more bids and then I think you'd have a pretty thorough understanding of the fair market price of your window replacement project...
Average Cost Of Replacement WindowsDane, thanks again for the detailed notes and offer to review bids!
[Site Editor's Answer]John, the NT Presidential is probably on par with the Anlin Panoramic series -- so I would stick with the Anlin bid at this point at save yourself what like $10K plus -- that's kind of an easy one for me, even if the installation company has better reviews. If they were offering the Sunrise Restorations series and this were your forever home, then it might be a discussion.
Okna Window Prices By SizeHi Dane, got these prices for okna 500 and 800 series. Located in Vienna Virginia. These companies seem to be soaking residents. Or the HOA is lazy. Can you take a look and give me thoughts. Seems very high. Also appears he is quoting for the deluxe option. I am on third and fourth floor of condo but 2 of 8 windows have a deck access. So 6 need ladders for sealing and outside work.
[Site Editor's Answer]Bob, my position is anything over $1K per window is super high...but if the job is new construction/full frame installation...the other factor is the fourth floor factor. This does make it more difficult to complete the work. So you might be looking at higher than normal pricing.
Provia Window Prices By SizeHi Dane, love this site. I am replacing 6 windows, 4 are 32 x 61, 1 is 40 x 61, and a bathroom that needs tempered glass and we're also doing a tinted bottom on it, measures 40 x 33. All have colonial grids and upgraded glass packages. Here are my quotes:
[Site Editor's Answer]Peggy what an incredibly close price grouping -- that's pretty rare! I think we can safely assume that that is the fair market price for your project. Vytex sells a Fortis model, but I've never heard of the Curtis. The Vytex Fortis series is quite a good window -- perhaps not as good as the Endure but very close.
All good series in the rest of the three, but my favorite of these is the ProVia Endure. This is head and shoulders the best of the SoftLite Classic and Midway Belmont series. This is what I would choose, although I do love going with a company that you already know about, feel comfortable with, and trust in.
Renewal By Andersen Window Prices By SizeHi Dane, I've been thru two estimates so far for 20 replacements for my home. One with Marvin Infinity and One with Renewal By Anderson. I found both very overpriced.
[Site Editor's Answer]Hugh, I would agree that those are both very expensive bids. $18k for a french patio door -- that's, um, staggering. Replacement window costs have gone up a lot, but those are very costly.
Your slider and casement sizes seem to be pretty standard. I think you just need to continue to collect more bids from local companies until you find a quality product at a reasonable price. Are you married to fiberglass? Would a high quality vinyl window be a consideration?
Window Prices By Size QuestionsHi I wanted to get some replacements but not sure of how window prices by size differences work.
[Site Editor's Answer]Lynn, first of all, to answer your question of how much are windows -- prices aren’t uniform so its impossible for me to tell you what a company will bid out a specific window for — I’d collect 4 bids and compare the prices — that’s really the only way to know the project cost.
Huge Replacement Windows Cost DiscrepancyHi Tim, can you please send me a list of the good to great replacements? I am looking at replacing 32 windows on a stucco house and would like your opinion on the best value and the replacement technique. I am not too hip about cutting them all out and dealing with a stucco repair. I have had three quotes that range from $37,000 to $160,000. That is a big disparity.
[Site Editor's Answer]Ken, that is a BIG disparity.
Window Prices By Size 2022Pella 250 Series CostHi Dane, thank you for your wonderful website - a lifesaver. Thought I'd share some pricing. This is for new construction on 11 double hungs.
Ply Gem CostsHi Dane, thank you, it is a great website! Thank you. We are getting new construction and replacement windows. Our contractor is pushing United from Lowes. From your reviews, it sounds like United is not a great option.
[Website Editor Reply]Doug, I would think you should be able to get those for maybe $500 to $600 each, but don't put a price tag on anything until you get the bids themselves. They can vary greatly or very little -- bids are tough to predict.
Replacement Windows Price ListHello Dane, my name is Jeff Chandler and I am a contractor in Round Rock, I'm reaching out to see if you have a windows price list of some sort. I am trying to remove the middle man and I prefer to try and use local, and American made products. Any and all help would be appreciated, thank you--
[Website Editor Reply]Jeff, I don't have replacement windows price list for any companies. Besides what you can buy at the building supply stores, nearly all window companies use their dealer network to sell. Simonton might be an option and their high end series are solid windows in my opinion. You might start here --
Window Pricing By Size In DFWThanks, Dane. In terms of products, what would you consider the best bang for my buck for a mid range option (roughly $1,000/window) including bronze color and exterior cladding. I see you like sunlight quite a bit. Any others? Burris?
[Website Editor Reply]David, with an upgrade color and exterior cladding, $1000 per window is actually a very good price.
Hurricane Slider Cost And Size QuestionDear Dane, my home in Boca Raton has single pane aluminum windows (junk), and sliders. I currently have accordion shutters for protection. My question to you is, should I replace w double pane low e type windows (vinyl I assume) or remove the shutters and use hurricane windows.
[Website Editor Reply]Peter, if your accordion shutters are in good shape and protect the windows during hurricanes and heavy storms, I would keep them and simply replace the windows with a high quality vinyl window. A normal window might run like $800 to $1000 (2022 pricing has jumped really high). A hurricane window might run $1500 to $2000 depending on the size and brand.
How Much Do Home Windows CostHello Dane, I have been in the window consulting and estimating industry for over 19 years. In 2016 I started my independent marketing and estimating service due to the practices associated with representing installation contractors. I have found your sight very helpful and often share it with my customers. The one question I have had with your information pertains to the pricing you offer for your brands. I have been estimating for 30 years in the building products industry and 19 of it is in the window replacement category. Your printing for installed windows is always half the rates of anything I can ever get from a contractor.
[Website Editor Reply]Steve, thanks for the email -- I have been working to up the prices on my site to reflect the "new normal" and I certainly admit that pricing is tricky. However, prior to 2020, I wouldn't say that the average price for a retrofit replacements was $900 for a builder grade window. (Maybe on an old home where they had to do lots of frame/sill work.) Maybe a contractor in San Diego can charge their customers $900 for a builder grade product, but there is a huge difference between what a contractor can get away with charging and what I'm trying to tell my consumers that they SHOULD be paying.
New Windows Price QuotesGood Afternoon, I have a 4 bedroom bungalow that I want to renovate and I will like to change all the windows and doors, I will be glad if you can assist me in the area of the new windows and doors or possibly give me a quote. If this interests you let me know so I can forward my specifications and dimensions.
[Website Editor Reply]Alesia, while I don't give quotes, I can assist you in sussing out which of your quotes are worth pursuing...
Milgard Prices By SizeGreetings Dane, I'm looking to replace the windows and patio slider in my home which is located in Washington state. Our home was built in 1992, and our current windows are double-pane aluminum.
[Website Editor Reply]Sean, personally I think that that RBA bid is too high -- 10 windows and a patio slider for $43K is just too expensive for the quality of their window. However, I'm not a big fan of the Milgard Styleline. I do like like the Milgard Trinsic, which is their newer model -- I would be interested in finding out how much the Milgard dealer would charge for that option. Anlin is a very good window in their Del Mar and Coronado. The other series you may want to look at is an Amerimax. I'm thinking there might be a dealer in your area. Also a Simonton 5500 series, which is quite a good window.
Apex Insignia Price BidDane, I've been reading a lot of your information. I have a two-story home in Southeastern Wisconsin with 8 double hungs with grids that are 3' x 5' high. Four on the ground level and four on the second floor. Also on ground level are four casement: two are 2' x 5' 6" high and two are 2' x 5' 6" high. One large 10' x 5' 6" high that has an opening case on each end. One 40" square casement double opening. Two 28" x 42" casement and one sliding patio door 6' wide x 78" high. Upper level has a large picture window that is 5' square in size but the top has a moon shaped curvature and this window has grids.
[Website Editor Reply]Jeff, the pricing seems okay but you do want more bids to see whether or not there are better options out there. The Apex Insignia is a good performer, but take a look at these options as well.
Vinyl Window Replacement CostDane, I live in Los Angeles and we are looking for 7 black exterior windows for our new house. I was quoted for both Milgard and Anlin, Milgard is quoting me $9500k for the Trinsic Series and Anlin for $15k for the Panoramic Series. I got one quote for the Anlin where they mixed both Panoramic and Monte Verde together, Monte Verde for the patio doors, and Panoramic for all the windows for a total of roughly $10k.
[Website Editor Reply]Karen, I would think the best deal so far is the Anlin Panoramic on the windows and the Monte Verde for the patio doors for $10K. I think the quality of this combination is above the Milgard Trinsic for $9500. The pricing seems relatively fair to me, although at the higher end of what I would expect.
Renewal By Andersen Windows Prices By SizeHi Dane, I am hoping you can help me make sense of some window replacement quotes. This is for 19 windows in white (no grids, etc) located in Utah. Measurements are below if that helps. They are all over the place, and as a basic consumer, it is hard to make direct comparisons.
[Website Editor Reply]Lindsay, I would say from a value perspective (quality and price), the following four bids offer the high value for your dollar. If the Simonton installer had a fantastic reputation/reviews, I would probably go this route. The 6200 is a solid window, especially for the price and with high quality installation. If the reviews are mediocre, I would probably go to option 2 and repeat the process. The installation is half the battle so definitely be cognizant of this...
Pella 250 Window Prices By SizeHi, Dane. We need 24 replacements to replace leaky storm windows in our new sunroom. We plan on:
[Website Editor Reply]John, I'm generally suspicious of any price quote above $1000 per window, unless they are very larger or a specialty shape. The Pella 250 is a decent vinyl window, but not a great one. I would certainly continue the search if this were my project.
Double Hung Vinyl Windows QuoteI was just recently quoted $15,886 for the following:
[Site Editor's Answer]Levy, definitely high for what you are looking at. Here is my list of windows for you to check out.
Replacement Windows EstimatesWhat are your thoughts on this estimate for replacement windows in NC. Nirvana Soft Lite Classic Plus w Grids
[Site Editor's Answer]Privia, that isn’t a bad quote based on recent prices. I would say you are paying at the upper range I what I would say this is worth. One note here: COVID and the demand it has had on the home improvement industry, coupled with supply chain issues, has really pushed up prices. I’m hoping that this begins to dissipate as I really don’t like this price squeeze on consumers. However, I don’t realistically see this happening in the next three to four months in the United States.
How Much Does A Small Window CostHello Dane, we just got a quote for 10 replacements
[Site Editor's Answer]Roman, I think this is in the ballpark from the pricing I have seen lately. Usually smaller windows are less expensive, but some companies price them out similarly to slightly larger windows because the material costs are so similar. No rhyme or reason to why they price them out like they do...would still go out and collect two more bids to make sure though.
ProVia Endure EN600 Series Cost Bid By SizeHey there. Here is what I've got and it includes the project supply and install, reuse existing trim, new exterior trim. My questions: does this seem reasonable pricing? And can you tell me what change to price could be if blinds were eliminated? FYI location for job is in Michigan’s Western Upper Peninsula. Thank you.
[Site Editor's Answer]Jason, this is a hefty price tag at first glance, although it does include the exterior trim. I would absolutely get a few more bids if this were my project in order to compare how the bid stacks up to other companies in the area. I would think you could get a bid on a similar window for a lot less (although the demand lately has certainly driven up prices.)
CWS 8100 Window Costs Hi Dane, Just got a quote from a pretty well liked window contractor in my area. The quote was for CWS 8100's in the following sizes:
[Site Editor's Answer]Dustin, this sounds like an okay price, high on the face of it, but I don't know all the project details. Prices have been pretty crazy lately, so there's always that...
Vinyl Window CostHow much cost per window with sizes:
[Site Editor's Answer]In general, let's say $500 to $700 per XO and $750 to $950 per OXO. $2500 to $4500 for doors, there is a huge range in door prices.
Bay Area Window Prices By SizeYour site is terrific. Based on your comments to others it seems like my quotes for the Anlin Catalina series are pretty high. I live in Rossmoor Ca. That's East of San Francisco in Contra Costa County. I have the following to be replaced as new construction.
[Site Editor's Answer]Mark, definitely not cheap. Prices have been wacky with COVID, although they seem to be slowly coming back down. I think at the end of the day, the only way you really know if the price is fair is if you collect a few more bids that give you some apple to apple quotes. The Bay Area is not what I call a quality-rich window region. Which is ironic given how much demand there would be up there.
Window Nation Windows Prices By SizeHi Dane, I have a two story home built in 1891, that still has the original windows. Most of the windows measure 33”x 78”. I want to replace 10 windows, black on the outside, white inside. Window Nation has given me their ‘discounted’ price of
$12, 300 for Imperial windows. Is this a good price?
[Site Editor's Answer]Lori, that price seems high to me. However, there are a few circumstances that might justify the price: full frame installation, the exterior color, and the COVID season demand. Full frame adds a good $200 to $300 to each window, exterior upgraded colors can drive cost up by as much as 30%, and COVID and consumer demand for home improvement has driven prices up.
Simonton 5500 PriceEvening, I have a couple of questions. I live in Texas and when we had the freeze recently, my six new windows failed. Huge drafts of cold air were coming up the sides in the tract area. At least two seals also broke.
[Website Editor Reply]Rachel, so the company who installed these are replacing them for free? I'm going to assume this is right.
Window Cost By SizeDane, I’d appreciate your thoughts on the following bids to replace 33 windows, 1 set of double French doors, and 1 single French door:
[Site Editor's Answer]David, the price differences between your bids is about what I'd expect. The Del Mar is the better window and sliding door. As to whether you should pay the extra $10K for the Anlin over the other two is kind of a toss up for me. Typically, I would say that your projected timeline for staying in the home (and budget of course) would be the best factor(s) to come at this issue. Ballpark, I would say 12 years is your over under.
Big Window Prices By SizeHi Tim, I am looking to install new windows in my home. The sales person told me there are 14 windows of various sizes with three of those being large picture windows. Supposedly there is no charge for installation and sales tax. The product being used is Anlin Del Mar series. I was quoted $13,500. The sizes are: 72x62; 72x62; 38x58; 36x36; 30x30; 96x64; 30x36; 30x30; 30x30; 30x30; 30x30; 30x30; 30x30; 48x52
Does this sound like a good deal?
[Website Editor Reply]Kathy, if the installation is full frame, then it's a fair price. If it's simply a retrofit install, then it seems high to me. I'd get a couple more bids to compare it to...that's the only real way to know how fair the bid is...
CWS Window Size QuoteHow fair is my quote? I was quoted $48000 for Solar Max with Neat Technology, white, from Custom Window Systems. Thanks for taking your time with this request.
[Site Editor's Answer]Sandy, sounds pricey to me. I don't think I would ever spend $48,000 unless I had at least a few other bids to compare this one to, especially with the big panels. There can lots of price differences here between different brands and companies. I would get a bid from a local company who carried PGT and another from someone who carried the Sunrise Coastal or the Soft-Lite Barcelona Impact.
Okna Window Prices By SizeTim, I have been using your recommendations to get bids of some of the products you mentioned below. Unfortunately, some of the brands are not sold in NC and others are based in Raleigh (50 miles away) and will not come out here. However I was able to find two highly rated companies, in Durham (70 miles away) who do cover Rocky Mount. One is a Okna dealer and the other is Soft-lite. Both have been in business for over 30 years. There was one other Okna dealer, but they only sell the 800 series and just entered my market 2 years ago when they bought out some local dealers - their main business is bathroom remodeling. I am not considering WindowWorld.
[Site Editor's Answer]Scott, sorry for the lag in reply. Both excellent, top tier products -- like comparing a Tesla and Mercedes (actually probably not like that at all, but you get my drift). I personally would go with the Okna 600 because of the $1100 savings...unless you are worried about the Okna dealer's installation. I'd check their reviews in the last two years and make sure they have solid customer ratings.
Anlin Window Prices By Size Tim - I realize that giving free advice isn't exactly RWR's mission statement, but we only discovered you after having gotten multiple bids. Our Zip is 95628. RETROFIT.
[Site Editor's Answer]Kat, this bid from Anlin actually looks pretty close to what I would expect from them in your area. Those 71 inch windows are BIG windows and this is a good example of how size dictates price. Anlin bids lately have been high, as have many window quotes. The smaller sized windows surprise me a bit, but not by a huge amount. My only real advise is to maybe grab a Milgrd Tuscany or Trinsic bid and, assuming it's less than the Anlin Del Mar bid, take it to the Anlin dealer and see if he will match it.
Okna Window Prices By SizeHello: I received a quote for Okna. I have 10 Okna casements in the front of my house and love them. They are 4 years old.
[Site Editor's Answer]Craig, that quote seems high unless they are doing full frame installation. Prices have jumped since Covid began and home improvement projects have become much more popular. However, casements are typically more expensive than double hungs (not by a ton, but 5% to 10%). So should the price have doubled in 4 years, no. Again, unless you are doing full frame replacement due to damage to the frame and/or sills.
Window Quote Based On SizeThank you for your help. I am looking to replace 5 arched, fixed frames. Rough dimensions are L x H:
[Website Editor Reply]Tim, if you want to go with a low profile, I would recommend an aluminum thermally broken window. These will be very strong, but mediocre in terms of energy efficiency. Milgard sells an aluminum window. Marvin does not. The Pella Impervia is a fiberglass window that may have a thin frame, but in terms of quality it's not a window I would really recommend.
Replacement Windows Prices By SizeHello Dane/Tim, I'm planning to replace 9 windows in my house and looking for your feedback to finalize the window from these shortlisted options.
[Website Editor Reply]Rakesh, great pricing on all of these windows. For me the Vinylmax Edison is the best of the bunch. Plus, it's the least expensive. Assuming the local Vinylmax dealer has a great track record and great online reviews, this would be a no brainer for me. The Soft-Lite Classic Plus would be my second choice, but quite a ways back of the Edison option.
Anlin Windows PricesGood Morning, I really enjoy your site. I was hoping you could help us out, we live in Tucson, AZ and we recently received a quote for a window replacement. Full frame installation, quote details below.
[Website Editor Reply]Jacob, I don't necessarily think that's a high quote for full frame replacement and Anlin Del Mar. It's not cheap. Home improvement projects are in demand right now so companies are not bidding out projects on the low end, that's for sure. If this were my project, I'd get two more bids and see what they came back with. I'm do a Milgard Tuscany quote and an Amerimax Masters Grande cost quote (if available). The other option might be a Simonton Reflections 5500.
Sunrise Window Prices By SizeHello, I recently had Sunrise vinyl replacements installed & need to get an estimated cost per window. I had 3 sliders 72 x 44 and 2 double hungs 26 x 44. I would just like to know a break down of what one of the sliders and one of the double hungs cost approximately for tax purposes.
[Website Editor Reply]Kay, if you had the windows installed, don't you know what you paid. On average, a Sunrise double hung windows should run $550 to $650 installed. However, it's like asking what a Toyota Highlander costs -- it can run $32K to $45K based on all the features and packages.
Window Prices By Size Of FrameA couple of quick questions: do those prices mean per frame or per pane (or a double casement should I expect double that price)? Also, is that for inserts or full replacement?
[Website Editor Reply]It's for say a 32" w by 42" h window replacement, not full installation. Honestly, projects have too many factors to give definitive pricing. It's just a guide. The bids are going to be the best way to judge the fair cost.
Window Cost By SizeQuestion, I am pricing large windows for our church,, like 52" wide 134" in heights. My quote went from a barrington to an Soft-Lite Imperial LS series due to the fact that we wanted tinted glass and the dealer said we had to go to a heavier frame, required 3 separate panes of glass. Does that make sense?
[Site Editor's Answer]Pauline, without seeing the particulars of the opening, I can't honestly say. As a general rule of thumb, a larger opening does often require a stronger frame to insure that the frame doesn't warp over time with the stress of the extra weight across the span. Here is what I would suggest -- get a couple more opinions from other companies like the one that carries Soft-Lite.
Del Mar Window Prices By SizeWe have received an estimate to replace 22 windows and 1 slider for $22,252.99. This is for Anlin Del Mar and Malibu slider. Nine of them will have grids. Just trying to determine if the is a good estimate or inflated. We do have two windows that are 95 & 96" wide and our slider is 96" wide. However, we do have 8 what I would consider small openings as well. Three of them do not open so do not even have sliders.
[Site Editor's Answer]Diana, this seems high to me, although I don't know what's involved in the installation so I will not say for sure that this is unreasonable. Assuming that the slider is $2000, which is on the expensive side for a vinyl patio door, that's over $1000 per window. Typically, I would say that you should be able to get a good quality vinyl window installed for $400 to $600 per window. Of course, there are lots of factors that can push this number above or below the number I quoted.
I think you need to check out our recommended windows page and search for local companies that carry the brands listed in the mid range and premium categories. Getting a few more bids will tell with reasonable certainty whether the bid you have is fair or too high. West Coast vinyl manufacturers that I typically recommend include Milgard, Amerimax, Anlin (which you already have), and the premium models from Simonton.
Anlin Patio Sliding Doors QuoteHi Dane, Recently we got a quote for Anlin brand patio doors and French doors from American Vision. We need 2 patio doors and 2 single French doors to replace. The price is as follows and includes installation. Is that a fair quote?
[Site Editor's Answer]Elaine, the prices quoted don't seem outrageous to me by any means. Doors are tricky due to custom sizes etc. But a sliding door at that size for $2600 installed is a pretty decent price. However, don't take my word for it because obviously I don't know the specifics behind the install etc.
Renewal By Andersen Price By Sizewanted to replace 7 windows plus a slider but the Renewal by Andersen pricing was astronomical. After 5 hours in my house with their salesman pitching the superiority of their windows I ended up purchasing one casement (34.5 x 57.5) and one double-hung (47 x 57) window for $4427 plus $288.30 for a mandatory building permit. I planned to complete the rest of them within the year, however due to a breach of trust and discomfort with the salesman I am now looking for a different company. I love the windows, I don’t love the price tag, I really don’t like the changing prices and sales tactics.
[Site Editor's Answer]Jacque, RBA makes a nice window, but they are VERY expensive. The Andersen 100 window is made of the same fibrex material and is often sold in home depot for around $250 to $450 for the window, depending on the upgrades, glass, etc. that you want. You would obviously have to find your own installer -- I wouldn't recommend going with the HD subcontractors, but you could find an experienced installer and get them to install it for you.
Anlin Windows Costs By Sizes Our recent American Vision windows cost quote on the Anlin Del Mar series took our breath away! To summarize, out of 25 replacement windows plus 8 sliding (Malibu) doors and 1 single French door, our quote was $55,224. But the rep gave us enough credit to drop it down to $42,860! Examples were 31" X 78" single French door $1959 + $500 installation. A 94" X 78" OXXO slider $2990 + $500 installation. Three tiny 12" X 28" stationary glass replacements were each $400 + $175 installation. Needless to say, we will continue to shop for bids.
[Site Editor's Answer]Krissy, it does sound like the bid was higher than it should have been, although I will say that patio doors can be expensive, especially for custom sizes etc.
