Determining the Cost of Custom Window Replacement
It may be easy enough for you to figure out that you need new windows. If you have single pane windows that are sad looking and rather drafty, it’s time for new windows. However, determining what your budget should be for the project can be a bit tougher. You want to get quality windows in Ventura, CA, but how much will you have to spend? Let’s take a look at some of the determining factors when it comes to custom window replacement projects.
Windows + Installation = Cost
Whether you’re good at math or not, you know the windows you purchase aren’t all involved in the cost of custom window replacement. You also have to pay for the installation of the product you choose. When you add those two elements together, then you will get your final cost. However, there are a lot of details that go into the windows themselves and what custom window replacement will end up costing.
Size
The size of the window will, of course, help determine the price. When you buy a large drink, it usually costs more than a small drink, right? The same is true for your windows. Larger windows cost more. So if you are getting a huge picture window, it will cost more than a smaller picture window.
Interior/Exterior Color
If you are going for custom window replacement, that means you get to choose the colors of the windows both on the inside and the outside of your home. Sometimes, windows come in a certain color. If you are getting vinyl windows for example, they come standard in certain colors. If you want a custom order with a certain color, that will cost extra as well.
Glass Options
There are a variety of different glass options for your new windows. Of course, you want at least double pane glass, but some homeowners in Ventura, CA go for triple pane glass to further insulate their homes. You can have air fillings between the panes or you can go with the more energy efficient option of argon glass. You can also get low-e coatings to keep the UV rays out of your home. The options are yours, but any upgrades cost more.
Hardware Finishes
When you get custom window replacement, you even get to choose the hardware, but some hardware costs more than others so that will determine at least a little bit of the final cost as well.
Installation
The cost of the custom window installation will largely be determined by the company you work with. You don’t want a company that gives you a low ball offer only to leave you with a less than stellar installation job. When you contact Quality Windows, you get nothing but the best when it comes to windows and installation.
