What Affects the Cost of Installing New Windows?

 

Infographic titled “Factors Affecting Window Installation Costs,” featuring six key elements in a circular layout: window size & style, frame material, labor complexity, energy efficiency, permit needs, each with icons and brief descriptions.

 

Several factors can affect the final price of your project, including:

 

Window Size & Style

 

Larger windows or specialty shapes—like bay, bow, or custom arched units—require more materials and are more complex to install. That directly increases both product and labour costs.

 

Frame Material

 

Your choice of material impacts durability, aesthetics, and budget. For example, vinyl is the most cost-effective and low-maintenance, while fiberglass and wood offer premium finishes but come with a higher price tag.

 

Labour Complexity

 

Installing on upper floors, in brick walls, or fitting custom sizes requires more time, tools, and skill, raising the overall labour cost.

 

Energy Efficiency Features

 

Upgrades like triple-pane glass, low-emissivity (Low-E) coatings, and argon gas insulation help reduce energy bills, but they’ll cost more upfront.

 

Permit Needs & Wall Modifications

 

If you add a window where there wasn’t one before, there’s more to it than just cutting a hole. Structural framing changes, city permits, and inspection approvals increase the final price. 

 

How Much Does Labour Cost to Install Windows?

 

Wondering how much of the total cost is for labour?

 

On average, professional labour runs about C$100 to C$250 per window.

 

If you’re installing a bay window, basement egress, or adding a new opening, labour can rise to C$400–C$700 or more.
