Where you live. Local labor costs, demand and travel time move prices up or down from the national average.

How to pay less

Replace several windows at once. Bigger orders often lower the per-window price.
Ask whether a retrofit install will work. It costs less than full-frame replacement.
Compare quotes on the same frame material and glass package.
Compare at least two or three quotes for the same scope. Pros on Job Hound never pay for leads, so no lead fee is built into their price.
