Replacing your windows can make your home warmer, quieter and more energy-efficient. High-quality PVC windows reduce draughts and heat loss while improving sound insulation. For this reason, many apartment and house owners want to know how much window replacement costs in 2026.
It is impossible to provide one exact price without measuring the windows first. The final cost depends on the window dimensions, the number of opening sections, the selected window profile, the glazing unit and the amount of installation work required. Window sills, exterior flashings and interior finishing can also affect the price.
What is included in the cost of window replacement?
When comparing quotations, you should not consider only the price of the window itself. An initially cheaper offer may ultimately become more expensive if installation and other necessary work must be ordered separately.
Our example prices include:
- a PVC window;
- window installation;
- a PVC window sill;
- exterior and side flashings;
- the necessary interior finishing work;
- removal of the old window;
- disposal of the old window.
Before confirming an order, it is always advisable to check exactly which materials and services are included in the quotation.

What affects the final price of PVC windows?
The dimensions and construction of the windows have the greatest effect on their price. A fixed, non-opening section is generally more affordable than an opening section. The more opening elements and hardware a window has, the higher its price will usually be.
The main factors affecting the price include:
- the width and height of the window;
- the number of opening sections;
- the selected window profile and glazing unit;
- the colour and finish of the window;
- the dimensions of the window sills and exterior flashings;
- the complexity of removing the old window;
- the condition of the installation area;
- the amount of interior finishing work required.
Replacing a standard apartment window is generally more affordable than installing a large balcony unit or a custom-sized window.
Which window configuration should you choose?
When choosing a suitable solution, you should consider the type of building, how the room is used and the location of the windows. If a window faces a busy road, improved sound insulation may be particularly important. In a private house or an apartment with high heating costs, greater attention should be paid to the thermal performance of the window.
A higher-quality configuration may cost more initially, but it can reduce heat loss and improve the indoor climate. A window specialist can help you compare different profiles, glazing units and hardware options to find the most suitable solution.
Can windows also be replaced in winter?
PVC windows can be professionally installed throughout the year. Window replacement is most popular in spring and summer, but the work can also be successfully completed in autumn and, under suitable weather conditions, during winter.
During colder weather, windows are replaced one at a time and the opening is left exposed for as short a period as possible. It is therefore not always necessary to postpone window replacement until spring.
Window replacement prices in 2026
In 2026, the cost of replacing a PVC window, including installation and the necessary additional work, starts at approximately €470. Larger windows and solutions incorporating a balcony door can cost up to approximately €930. The exact price always depends on the individual window, the selected configuration and the amount of work required.
