What Affects the Cost?

Number of windowsThe more windows you replace at once, the lower the cost per window tends to be — you save on labour and call-out costs.
Window sizeLarger windows cost more than standard casement windows. Bay windows, floor-to-ceiling windows and large picture windows all carry a premium.
StyleCasement windows are the most common and affordable. Tilt-and-turn, sliding sash, bay windows and bow windows all cost more.
MaterialuPVC is the most affordable option. Aluminium costs more but offers slimmer sightlines and a more contemporary appearance.
GlazingDouble glazing is standard. Triple glazing costs more but provides better insulation and noise reduction. Specialist glass (toughened, obscure, Georgian bar) adds to the price.
ColourStandard white uPVC is the most affordable. Foiled colours — grey, black, anthracite, cream — typically add 10–20% to the cost.
