What are common window replacement costs in Charlotte?
Your location affects your window replacement costs, and your final price depends on window size, brand, number of panes, material and labor. Here is a cost table for window replacement in Charlotte, based on data from RSMeans for different window styles:
- Arched: Arched windows are square at the bottom and have an arch on top. Prices range from $233–$1,427.
- Awning: An awning window is hinged at the top of the frame and swings open from the bottom. Costs vary from $336 to $937.
- Bay and bow: A bay window consists of three windows — a picture window at the center and two smaller casement windows on either side. Bow windows have four or more glass sections that go out from the home’s outside wall to form a curve. Plan to pay $775–$5,750 for either of these types of windows.
- Casement: Casement windows have hinges on the side and open out from the right or left. Prices fall into the range of $268–$1,555.

- Double-hung: Double-hung windows feature two operating sashes and typically cost $125–$809.
- Egress: Egress windows are small windows that serve as an emergency exit. Plan to pay $230–$574.
- Glass block: Glass block windows use a few large blocks of glass set into a window frame. A glass block window often costs between $46–$582.
- Picture: A picture window is a non-operating window that doesn’t open. Costs average between $202 and $1,491.
- Single-hung: Single-hung windows are like double-hung windows but with only one sash instead. Costs range from $91–$1,533.
- Skylight: Skylights are windows on the ceiling. They cost an average of $115–$1,384.
- Sliding: Sliding windows move horizontally along a top and bottom track. The price ranges between $264 and $1,342.
- Storm: Storm windows fit over the outside of an existing window to improve insulation. Prices begin around $55 and go to $379.

What should you consider before hiring a window repair pro in Charlotte?
Consider these important factors before selecting a window repair specialist in Charlotte.
Can you fix the window on your own?
Though DIY window repair could save money initially, it might result in higher costs in the long run. You could probably manage easy fixes like applying caulk, but hiring a specialist helps prevent issues.
Get quotes from multiple window repair pros to see whether the expense is worth it or whether you can do the fix yourself.
What type of window do you need repaired?
To get help from an expert, you first have to determine which window type needs to be fixed. Check our list above to determine what kind of windows you have.
Is your damaged window affecting your energy bill?
Defective windows could raise utility bills because of their inefficiency. Heat and cold seep through damaged windows more easily, forcing your home's HVAC system to work harder to keep your home comfortable.
Good energy-efficient windows can reduce your bills by around an average of $346 annually, per the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Data.gov. If your costs are inflating, ask your repair expert about energy-saving options.
Our methodology for selecting window repair services
The Homefront Local team employs a proprietary scoring algorithm that evaluates companies based on key factors you value, such as average customer review ratings and trustworthiness indicators. Our method for determining trust involves a comparative analysis of the number of reviews a company receives compared to its local competitors. This leads to companies that have earned more trust from your local community being awarded a higher score.
We review national windows providers against our full windows methodology. We score window repair providers based on window options, energy-efficiency features, warranties, reputation and reviews, customer service and services provided.
