A single replacement window starts from about £1,300 fitted. Below are eight example projects around Brighton and Hove, from one window up to a whole house, so you can see what a job like yours typically costs.
Each one is an illustrative example of a typical specification, not a particular customer's job, and the photos are illustrations. All prices are supplied and fitted, including VAT. Your own price comes from a free survey, and the written quote is the price you pay.
Kitchen window, any Brighton home
From £1,300
Typically £1,300 to £2,650, supplied and fitted including VAT
Window price: £1,200 to £1,950 for the window. Add about £500 for scaffold and making good if the window is upstairs.
Back of an Edwardian semi
From £2,400
Typically £2,400 to £4,200, supplied and fitted including VAT
Window price: £1,100 to £1,950 per window. Timber flush casements are typically £1,500 to £2,800 per window instead.
Ground floor of a Victorian terrace
From £2,850
Typically £2,850 to £4,200, supplied and fitted including VAT
Window price: £2,650 to £3,800 for the window. A good way to start with the window in the worst state and match the rest later.
Victorian canted bay, Kemp Town
From £8,200
Typically £8,200 to £15,200, supplied and fitted including VAT
Window price: £6,750 to £11,100 for the bay. Older bays sometimes need the structure under the frames repaired first. The survey will show it.
Victorian terrace, Preston Park
From £9,100
Typically £9,100 to £14,200, supplied and fitted including VAT
Window price: £2,650 to £3,800 per window. The spread comes mostly from the joinery specification and how much repair the brick openings need.
Edwardian semi-detached house, Fiveways
From £11,800
Typically uPVC £11,800 to £20,900. Timber £15,300 to £29,400, supplied and fitted including VAT
Window price: uPVC £1,100 to £1,950 per window. Timber £1,500 to £2,800 per window. Timber costs more to make and to finish, and suits the house better if the street still has original joinery.
Regency first-floor flat, Hove
From £12,100
Typically £12,100 to £22,000, supplied and fitted including VAT
Window price: £4,700 to £7,900 per window. Conservation detailing and scaffold height are the big variables. Listed buildings sit at the top of the range.
1930s detached house, Withdean
From £24,900
Typically £24,900 to £48,200, supplied and fitted including VAT
Window price: £1,350 to £2,550 per window. Curved bay £7,050 to £12,750. The curved bay is the least predictable item. A flat-faced bay costs noticeably less.
Material is the first thing. uPVC flush casements cost least, slimline aluminium sits in the middle for most sizes, and timber costs more to make and to finish. Heritage glazing with slim units and true glazing bars adds to the cost of a sash.
Access comes next. A ground-floor window needs no scaffold. A first-floor sash on a Regency facade can need a full scaffold, which is why small upstairs jobs cost proportionally more.
Then there is the state of the opening. Rotten sills and damaged brick arches need putting right before new frames go in. The survey shows this before you commit to anything.
