Windows
Utah Windows cost. These are your home's eyes to the outdoors. This scope includes energy-efficient window supply and installation.
What’s Included
Includes purchase and installation of residential windows: vinyl, composite, aluminum-clad, or wood. Pricing includes nail flange install, insulation, flashing tape, and foam. Screens and hardware typically included. Grids, color upgrades, and specialty shapes (arches, transoms) increase cost. May include egress basement windows. Excludes doors, garage windows, or commercial glazing.
Notes:
Includes full window package: windows + standard install + flashing
Builder Tips:
Ask for window U-values and SHGC ratings — most Utah cities require energy code compliance. Vinyl is most affordable, while aluminum-clad wood (e.g., Andersen 100/400 series) offers better looks at higher cost. Order early — custom windows can take 6–12 weeks. For modern homes, oversized or black-frame windows are trending but add 20–30% cost.
Real World Example:
A 4,200 sq ft home with 38 vinyl windows, mostly standard size:
Window package: $18,000–$23,000
Installation: ~$3,000–$4,500
Total: ~$21,000–$27,500
Price per opening: $550–$725 average
