Replacement Window Prices in Houston (Installed, Per Window)
These are our installed prices per window for window replacement in Houston, the same figures our window cost calculator uses. Where your home lands in a range depends on window size, style, glass package and whether the opening is on the second story.
Storm protection, TWIA windstorm zones, street noise
Included in every installed price: the window, removal and disposal of the old one, installation by our own crew, flashing and sealing, interior and exterior trim, cleanup, and the warranties.
Common add-ons: Grids (grilles) add $50 to $150 per window. A non-white frame color adds 10 to 15 percent.
Example: a 15-window Houston home in vinyl typically runs $9,750 - $19,500 installed. In thermally broken aluminum, the same home runs $19,500 - $25,500.
We keep the lineup short on purpose. Each line is one we install every week, so our crews know its details and we know how it holds up in Gulf Coast heat.

Glass Packages for Houston Heat
What are the best double-pane replacement windows for hot and humid weather in Houston?
Look for a double-pane window with a solar control Low-E coating, argon gas fill and a warm-edge spacer, in a frame that will not warp in the heat. That combination blocks most of the sun's heat and UV while the glass stays clear. The packages we install are MW Heat Reflector on MW Hybrid vinyl, LoE-366 on Don Young aluminum and Quad LoE-452+ on NT Windows.
West and south walls take the hardest afternoon sun. That is where the strongest solar control coating pays for itself.
North and shaded walls can use a standard package and save money.
Which Houston window companies are known for good warranties and service?
Compare the installation warranty first, since that is what covers leaks around the frame. Among the Houston companies we compared, written labor coverage runs from 1 year to lifetime. Ours is a Lifetime Installation Warranty with our Leak-Free Guarantee, on top of the manufacturer's window warranty, and service calls come to our own local team.
Every customer gets one price, locked in writing, under our Best Price Guarantee.

How much do replacement windows cost in Houston per window installed?
Vinyl replacement windows run $650 to $1,300 per window installed, and thermally broken aluminum runs $1,300 to $1,700. Composite, fiberglass and impact windows are quoted per project. A typical 15-window home in vinyl lands between $9,750 and $19,500. Size, style, glass upgrades and second-story work move the number within those ranges.
What is included in the installed price?
The window, removal and disposal of the old window, installation by our own crew, flashing and sealing, interior and exterior trim, cleanup, the manufacturer warranty and our Lifetime Installation Warranty (Leak-Free Guarantee). Your written quote lists every line, so nothing is added later.
Is vinyl a good choice for Houston heat?
Yes, when the frame is built for it. A quality vinyl frame with UV stabilizers, welded corners and a Low-E glass package handles Houston summers for decades, and it is what most Houston homes get from us. Thermally broken aluminum is the better fit for slim black frames and very wide openings.
What is the difference between MW Heat Reflector, LoE-366 and Quad LoE-452+ glass?
All three are Low-E solar control packages for hot climates. MW Heat Reflector is the Low-E and argon package on our MW Hybrid vinyl windows, with an Elite upgrade. LoE-366 is the triple-layer coating Don Young pairs with its aluminum frames. Quad LoE-452+ is the four-layer coating that comes standard on NT Windows Twinsulator. We recommend one by the sun exposure of each wall.
Do you install composite and fiberglass windows?
Yes. Composite and fiberglass are quoted per project because the price depends heavily on the series, color and size. We show you how they compare with vinyl and aluminum for your openings during the in-home assessment.
How does financing work for replacement windows?
Financing is offered through Synchrony, subject to credit approval. Plans include 18 months with no interest if paid in full, plus longer fixed-rate terms. Current plans and sample payments are on our financing page.
How long is a replacement window quote good for?
Your written, line-item quote is held for 30 days under our Best Price Guarantee. Take the time to compare it with other bids. We will review any competing written quote line by line with you.
