Why we made this PDF
Window replacement is one of the most quoted-vs-actual-cost asymmetric home improvement categories. The same vinyl double-hung window can be quoted at $650 by a local independent installer or $1,400 by a sales-organization. Both quotes look professional. Without a reference framework, homeowners pay $750+ extra per window for no actual product upgrade.
This cost sheet gives you that reference — state-specific pricing, brand reality, contractor red flags. Print it, bring it to your contractor visits, and use it to spot quotes that fall materially outside the typical range.
