Many customers visit our website looking for specific prices for window repairs or glass replacement and are surprised to find that there are no fixed prices. We understand your surprise: when it comes to household services, you want to plan your budget in advance. But when it comes to window repairs, there are simply no universal prices. Each individual case must be considered on a case-by-case basis, which is why we do not post average or approximate prices on our website, as they do not reflect reality anyway. Let’s take a closer look at this issue!
Factors affecting the price of the window repair
The price is based on many factors that vary from order to order. Window repair and replacement are services that are assessed based on the actual condition of the structure:
- window size
- window material (vinyl, aluminum, wood)
- extent of damage
- number of elements requiring repair
- need to replace glass or only individual parts
- difficulty of access
- type and quality of materials
- scope of work (one window or the entire house)
For example, the cost of replacing a rotten section of a wooden frame differs from the cost of completely restoring a sash or installing a new element. We always strive to repair rather than completely replace. It is cheaper, and we are capable of doing so. Only in extreme cases do we recommend installing a new window.
The type of window also affects the cost of its repair/installation. We work with different types of windows:
- Casement windows
- Double-hung windows
- Single-hung windows
- Garden windows
- Picture windows
- Awning windows
- Bay windows
- Bow windows
- Sliding windows
- Patio and french doors
The type of glass also plays an important role in determining the price. We work with the following types:
- Insulated Glass Units (IGU)
- Annealed glass
- Tempered glass
- Low-Emissivity (Low-E) glass
- Patterned and colored glass
Important! We do not produce the glass or window elements by ourselves. Rotten Window Repair works with popular American brands. We repair and install all popular American window brands. For example we have an extensive experience in repairing windows from popular American brands such as ANDERSEN windows & doors, Marvin windows and doors, Pella windows & doors and others. We order glass from Cardinal Glass Industries (modern glass units with a 20-years warranty on thermal seal). It’s crucial for us to work with timetested high-quality materials.
A free in-home measurement is the best way to find out the price of window repair
So how can a potential customer find out the cost of the service? It’s very simple: we take an individual approach and give each customer our full attention. Once we receive your request, we will work with you to schedule a free assessment of the condition of your windows. This does not commit you to anything!
During the visit, the technician:
- conducts a detailed inspection
- assesses the extent of the damage
- determines which elements require repair or replacement
- explains possible solutions
- selects materials
- calculates the exact cost
And most importantly, the price is fixed immediately. Once the estimate has been drawn up, the cost will not change, so you don’t have to worry about any hidden fees, additional surcharges, or unforeseen work.
If everything suits you, we will agree on a convenient day and start the repair work.
Why individual calculation is beneficial for the customer
- You only pay for what you really need.
- You get a fair, accurate price. No ranges or surprises.
- You understand exactly what will be done. The technician explains each step and shows you the problem areas.
- You can make your decision with peace of mind. A free measurement does not oblige you to anything.
We do not hide the cost; we calculate it individually so that each customer receives a fair, transparent, and reasonable price.
