There are a few key signs to look out for that would indicate it is time to look into replacement windows. Most signs of needing replacement windows are visual, making it easier to identify. First, look for any visible damage along the window or frames. If you see any rotting, cracks, or warping in the window or glass then the windows are failing and in need of replacement. You can also look for water leaks near the window which indicate a broken seal. Lastly, if there is condensation that is trapped in between the glass in a double pane window that is an indication that a seal is broken and the window has lost its energy efficiency. There are also some non-visible signs to look for when determining if a window is in need of replacement. Excessive noise near the window may mean that the window is not properly sealed causing outside noise to leak in. You may also feel drafts coming in from around the window resulting in significant heat gain or loss. To test for window drafts, blow out a candle or match and let the smoke rise around the frame of the window where you suspect a draft might be. If you see the smoke waver as it rises, or blows around, then there is air that is escaping or entering. Difficulty in opening or closing the window could mean that the frames are worn or damaged.
Age of the windows is another reason you may choose to replace your windows. Depending on the type of materials used, windows can last up to 50 years, however newer windows may offer better UV protection, or have higher energy efficiency ratings. If your home was built before 1970 you may also have single pane glass which is significantly less energy efficient than double or triple pane glass.
On average, in the tri-state area, the cost to purchase and install a replacement window typically falls between $600 and $1,500 per window—but that range can shift based on a few key factors: the type of window, the material, the size, the type of installation, and even the level of customization. If you’re replacing 10–15 windows in a standard home, the total cost could land somewhere between $8,000 and $20,000 or more, depending on your choices. So yes, it’s an investment—but it’s one that can really pay off.
Here’s a general ballpark for replacement windows in our region:
| Material | Insert Installation | New Construction Installation |
|---|---|---|
| Vinyl | $850–$1,100 per window | $1,100–$1,400+ per window |
| Wood | $1,500–$1,900+ | $1,900–$2,300+ |
| Composite | $1,000–$1,400 | $1,200–$1,800+ |
| Aluminum | $1,500–$1,900 | $1,900–$2,300+ |
Note: These are rough estimates and can vary based on brand, glass options (like triple-pane or Low-E), window size, and other details.
Brief tips on saving money
If you plan on replacing windows yourself it is important to be properly equipped. Replacing windows incorrectly can leave you with gaps and drafts that remove the benefit of energy efficiency from your new windows. Using the wrong tools or materials can cause damage to the window frames and its possible to void the products warranty if it isn’t installed correctly. While it is possible to install a window yourself, hiring a professional window replacement team comes with many benefits that can justify the cost of labor. For example, our teams at WindowRama can identify damage to the existing frames and help recommend the best window choices to get the most out of your budget. We also can provide extended warranties that cover the costs of labor if there is ever replacement or maintenance needed.
Long term savings are one of the primary benefits of replacing windows! Replacement windows can provide great savings from improving energy efficiency. The overall rating of the window may be better than your currently installed windows, or you might be able to fix drafts or heat gain and loss. Replacement windows, when installed properly, can reduce your energy bills by over $450 according to the department of energy depending on the type of window that is replaced and the energy efficiency of the new window. The DOE states that heat gain and loss make up 25-30% of energy costs that can be improved with modern windows installs. Replacement windows can also raise your home value with a return of over 80% depending on the type of window replaced.
How long does window installation take?
The average time it takes to install a window depends on many factors—such as the type of window, the condition of the existing frame, and whether it’s a replacement or new construction installation. Here’s a general breakdown:
Insert or Pocket Replacement Window Installation
Time per window: 30 to 60 minutes
Full-day install: A crew of 2 installers can usually complete 6–10 windows in a day
Best-case scenario: Simple vinyl replacements, no structural changes
Full-Frame Replacement or New Construction Window
Time per window: 2–4 hours or more
Total time: Could take 1–2 full days or more, depending on number of windows
Why longer: These installs often require removing trim, siding, and repairing or replacing framing
Other Factors:
No, you can replace your windows with any type of window you choose. When you partner with a certified window installation team such as WindowRama, we can help you pick out the best window brand based on your needs and budget.
