Then all you really need to do is replace the bad glass. Much cheaper than replacing the entire window. Unless you don't like the windows and just need an excuse to replace them.

Default Re: Replacement Windows

I have a house built in the 1920's and recently replaced all the single-pane windows with low-budget, but way warmer, double-pane vinyl.

I spect about 2 hours per window and $200 each including tax and delivery.

It was a fun project. Not too tough.

Default Re: Replacement Windows

its easy to do yourself after the first one. if you go with simple vinal windows 100 to 400 depending on size and glass.
andersons are 400 and up. go with low e glass if you want heat retention and blockage. but you pay more for that.
this doesnt include labor which is about 200 per window depending on the job. do not get metal windows as they all sweat.
if your glass is getting foggy then your thermo panes have failed and if you like your windows you can just change the glass but the cost may not be much less than half of new ones.

My parents are replacing every window in the house this week and are paying around $700-800 per window, including installation. (The entire windows are being replaced, not just the glass.)

They're getting ripped off if those are standard windows. If they have some weird windows being replaced with standard windows there's extra work though.
