How Much Does It Cost To Replace Windows Or Doors?
Every window and door replacement project has different factors that affect the project’s overall cost. To plan your budget for replacement windows and doors, you need to know the ‘installed window or door’ cost. To understand this, you need to understand the key factors.
These include window or door material (wood, fiberglass, vinyl, or aluminum), window or door styles (casement, double-hung, sliding, etc.), full or partial replacement, new or reused trim, condition of the opening, access to your windows and your home (for loading & unloading).
Each factor contributes to the cost of your replacement, which is why it’s critical to get a quote from a reputable replacement dealer. Otherwise, you risk getting an inferior installed product or hidden charges. Please look at some of our information on styles and materials to understand what products might suit your home. Once you have that, schedule an in-home window or door replacement consultation to get started on your project.

Replacement Window & Door FAQs
On the day of your in-home consultation, we ask that one of the homeowners or decision-makers is present to meet with our sales representative. Our sales representatives often have questions that must be answered to ensure the right products are quoted.
Technically yes; however, we generally refrain from doing so because the way you measure may or may not be the way Woodland would measure; therefore, it can confuse and, ultimately, make errors in what is quoted. We will help you estimate the cost to plan your budget. We’ll do our best to give you a price range.
Generally, your sales rep can provide a written proposal before leaving your home. There are some instances, however, where a product has to be quoted from our vendors. In that case, we will have to get back to you with a quote, generally within 24-48 hours, depending on the manufacturer.
The estimate you need to create a budget should include the ‘installed window or door cost.’ This is essential because the window choice, your home, and the installation requirements are inextricably linked. Estimates can be created for contractors and DIY homeowners who wish to purchase replacement windows or doors to install themselves.
Some homeowners install their windows if an insert window is an option for their project. Insert windows installed directly into an existing frame of the window being replaced. The frame needs to be square, in good condition, and the same size as the new window. Other replacements can be difficult if you have previous experience replacing windows. Manufacturers supply installation instructions.
We call that the ‘time management discount’ sales pitch. It’s a tactic to get homeowners to spend more than they might otherwise be ready to spend. Woodland uses a precise job costing system that allows us to price our installations by window openings, not the number of windows you buy, like most of our competitors. Our customers receive great pricing and consistent installation quality.
Step 2: The Right Solution
Woodland prides itself on a no-pressure sales environment. We want to make sure you’re not pressured into a sale. We want your business, but we would be grateful if you could take the time to process this decision. We offer expert in-home window and door replacement consultations. Our window and door experts will spend about an hour examining and taking measurements of your home and listening to your window and door replacement design goals. The representative will show you various window or door options that match your requirements and ensure you’re fully informed about all your options.
Choosing The Right Window or Door For Your Home
Several choices and specific options are tailored when replacing your windows and doors for a single-family home, a condominium, or a townhome. We’ll help you narrow your choices based on your unique home and recommend a brand and style from our wide selection of replacement windows and doors.

Step 3: Get Your Window Or Door Replacment Proposal
If you’re comfortable with your salesperson’s recommendations, you will be given a quote for your window or door replacement project. We don’t quote projects to make a sale; rather, we select the replacement solution for your home and factor in the installation costs associated with your specific project, so it is done right and there are no hidden costs.
Generally, your sales rep can provide a written proposal before leaving your home. However, there are some instances where the product has to be quoted from our vendors. In that case, we will have to get back to you with a quote, generally within 24-48 hours, depending on the manufacturer. Your sales representative will continue to answer questions or other options you’d like to compare.
Step 4: Ordering Windows & Doors
Ordering your replacement windows or doors is the first step in transforming your home and starting your window or door replacement project. Your order is placed when you’re ready to sign the proposal and make a 50% deposit (50% upon job completion). Our project coordinator will contact you to schedule final measurements at your home by our expert window and door replacement technician.

Step 5: Seamless Quality Installation
You’re all set for your window or door replacement project with those final measurements and your order placed. We’ll track your order progress, and when your order is received in our warehouse, our coordinator will call you again to schedule a convenient time for your replacement window or door installation.
We’ll give you a checklist in advance of how you can prepare your home for the installation day. The crew leader will review the process with you on the appointment day while the crew protects your hallways and work areas. Generally, our installers can replace 3-4 full frame replacement openings daily, and 6-10 insert replacement units per day. There may be exceptions to this, depending on the work that needs to be done.
Upon completion, your property will be cleaned up, and the crew leader will demonstrate how to use your windows, answer questions, and obtain your signature that the work was complete. Woodland is a phone call away should you have any questions or problems with your installation.
