Wheeling window installation costs will always depend on the design of the window that you like, the materials, its size and the number of windows you want to be installed in your house. The average cost of window installation in Wheeling is estimated to be around $1,815 up to $2,458 with most homeowners paying $450 on average. This price applies to less than 5 installations. The average cost of installing 5 up to 10 windows is approximately between $350 and $650. Technically, the more windows that you want to install, the higher the cost of installation. There are standard sizes of windows available. However, if you want manufacturers to customize a window for you, it will be costlier. Vinyl windows are considerably inexpensive, durable, and low in maintenance. They don’t shrink nor swell even if exposed to nature elements. But then again, they are not as attractive as wood. Wood-framed windows are typically expensive and require careful maintenance. They also need to be refinished every now and then. But, when it comes to the architectural and aesthetic appeal combined with its strength, nothing will beat wood.

A high-performance double pane window is estimated to have a U-factor of 0.30 or lower, while it is reported that triple panes can have as little as 0.15.

What is better, wood window or vinyl window in Wheeling?
