Renewal By Andersen Window Cost Calculator
Why Is Renewal By Andersen So Expensive?Andersen is a big name in the window industry. That's a big part of it. People trust the name and that allows them to sell a product at a premium price. Another reason for the high price is the window is very nice looking. Yet another reason is that their salespeople are professional and put together -- generally more so than many other window companies -- especially local ones.
Are Renewal By Andersen Prices Negotiable?Well...yes and no. The Renewal salesperson often controls the "narrative" at the presentation by starting off with a steep per window price and then ending on what appears to be his lowest price. And often they will say that that price is only good for 3 days -- and then the price jumps back up. Typically, once the sticker shock has worn off a bit, the sales rep will begin offering discounts and special deals that bring the cost into the reasonable range. By the time they leave, the Renewal By Andersen cost per window might be down to $1500 to $1700 per window (still very expensive). Not all RBA franchises work this way and some have very good reputations -- but it pays to get multiple price estimates.
Renewal by Andersen ComplaintsLike any window company out there, there are Renewal by Andersen complaints — lots of them to be honest. One of the reasons is because the business is so large and does so many replacement windows across the United States. A company like RBA is bound to have a percentage of customers dissatisfied with their work.
Homeowner Questions And Answers ForumBelow, you will find consumer and homeowner price quotes, comments, complaints, etc on Renewal. We work hard to make sure that these are legitimate comments from real people -- and will continue to do so.
RBA QuoteHello, looking to get 11 windows and potentially a patio door replaced in my 1952 home in Grand Rapids, MI. 2 windows are 63” x 52” picture windows, 9 are double hung windows, and the patio door is a 72”x80”. Looking for basic vinyl windows in white. Plan on moving within 5 years so price is a large factor which many companies totally ignored.
Renewal vs Pella 250We have collected a few window bids, and would love to know which you think is the best option. We need to do a full tearout, which is the reason they are so expensive.
[Site Editor's Answer]Yolanda, I think the Renewal is too high. The Feldco Sophia is probably your best bet. I'm not sure that the Pella 250 is worth the price upgrade.
Renewal By Andersen vs AnlinHi Dane, I received my final quotes. I don't think I can do anymore. Ha! As you can tell, we have quite a few arch windows and special sizes - 28 windows in total.
[Site Editor's Answer]Eric, lots of options. I think the NT Executive is close to the Catalina/Panoramic - not quite there but close. I think the price difference is about what I would expect between these two. If your timeline is 10 years, then go with the NT option - this makes more sense from a ROI perspective. If your timeline is more like 20 years in the home, then I would say the Catalina/Panoramic at $31K makes more sense to me.
Renewal By Andersen PricingI live back east and have to replace all of my home’s windows sometime during the next calendar year. I’m really not excited about this but it has to be done. I found your site and you seem to be an unbiased opinion in a sea of very biased opinions. These are the bids and they are per window.
[Site Editor's Answer]Cassie, I like the Okna 500 series here. I think the Renewal and Window Nation are too expensive and the United is just not high enough quality to make it worth it. My pick would be the Okna.
Renewal By Andersen Window CostWe're in hot Arizona and have three quotes to pick from. It's only on five windows total. This is what we have.
[Site Editor's Answer]Bret, I think the Renewal bid is too high. The Del Mar is my pick.
Renewal By Andersen CostI live in Phoenix Arizona and have 22 windows to replace. This is what the bids came in at. I can't afford more than $30K a lot of them (most of them) had to be kicked to the curb as they say.
Renewal BY Andersen PricesHi Dane, earlier this year we had two quotes, one on the Provia Endure and another on the Renewal By Andersen fibrex. While we are unable to go with the Renewal quote due to budgetary constraints, we would love an opinion on the Endure bid from Zen. We have 12 double hungs that need to be replaced.
[Site Editor's Answer]Barry, that does sound like a fair priced based on the fact that Zen Windows Charlotte reviews are excellent and the quote on the Endure sounds about what I'm seeing lately. I give it the thumbs up.
Champion Windows vs Renewal By AndersenDane, thank you so much for your site. Replacing 4 windows due to hail damage and 4 windows due to sun damage. Also replacing 1 slider. Started out with quotes from Renewal by Anderson (before I found your website). Followed by Champion, Home Depot and two contractors.
[Site Editor's Answer]Troy, you have quite an array of price quotes, that's for sure! I would probably rate the Anlin Catalina and Soft-Lite Classic Plus as equals. So too with their doors, both very well made. I think this parity is reflected in the price quotes. Brand wise, these two (Anlin and Soft-Lite) are on par with one another -- again, both very good.
Renewal By Andersen PricingDane, we live here in northern Utah and have 3 price bids so far on our replacement project. We are replacing 6 horizontal sliders, one sliding glass door and one large picture window.
RBA vs ApexGood morning Dane, would you please send me your list.
[Site Editor's Answer]Those are expensive bids for 21 windows — I’d keeping looking…
Renewal By Andersen PricesHi Dane, ee need to replace a due east facing (lot of heat coming thru during the summer) bay window. The middle picture window has lost its seal and moisture has collected between the panes. The side windows are both double hung, which we like.
[Site Editor's Answer]Danny, hi, I've been travelling this week so I'm frantically trying to catch up with my work.
Renewal By Andersen Cost QuoteHello, this is Matt Cook. We are looking to replace all the wooden windows on our 11 year old home. There are 33 windows of various sizes. Came across your site which appears to be one of the few sources of unbiased information. I'm emailing directly. If you have a list of recommended option (for our area) that you share, I would be very interested in that.
[Site Editor's Answer]Matt, happy to provide you with the list -- the Okna EcoPro is on there. Honestly, that windows blows the doors off the Renewal window in terms of energy efficiency and its a wee bit less expensive in terms of your bids :)
Renewal By Andersen ComplaintsHi Dane, what a great site. I can't stop reading all the correspondence you have w readers. I recently was pressured into "if you sign today " deal w Anderson. Love there product but I thought $39k w the discounts was a little steep for 11 normal windows. I have a 1978 stucco exterior home. And having hard time finding a good installer and advice. You mention to many people if they email you, you can send a list of suggested manufactures and installers. Could you share that list with me? I live in Northern California Bay Area. Thank you for your time and advice.
[Site Editor's Answer]Ryan, that is a hefty bid and based on what I've been seeing lately, I can't say I'm all that surprised.
Window Replacement San Francisco Ca QuoteHere’s a copy of a RBA cost quote. To sum it up very quick we have 6 large windows and the final cost was $21K. Seems steep. Any window replacement san francisco ca recommendations.
[Website Editor Reply]Tracy, sorry for the delay, I was on a small trip. That is a pretty standard RBA quote, which is to say very pricey. Here is my recommended list.
Renewal by Andersen PricesHi Dane, I have a number of quotes attached to the email. I just saw the last company today. Anderson's, Pella's, Home Depot's and American Vision's bids do not include a small circular 24" decorative window above the glider in the living room that is included in theDesign bid. So all bids except one are for 12 windows and 1 patio sliding door. Several are decorative, non-opening picture fixed frames.
Renewal by Andersen Window CostHi Dane. We have an older ranch/brick home Built in the late 1960’s. We will have to replace all windows, 16, to include a large bay in the front. Lots of shade trees in and around the house. We got a Renewal by Anderson cost bid and it was about 35k for everything (window, install).
RBA Window Warranty QuestionDane, good day, came across your website and was reading a few reviews from RBA.
[Site Editor's Answer]Hi James. So RBA offers a good warranty on their windows, but I don’t think it’s any better than any quality company out there. I don’t put a ton of stock in warranties because at year 16, the warranty often does not cover labor or the owner of the RBA franchise has moved on etc. Best to buy a quality window from a well reviewed company and hopefully you won’t have issues until year 30 or well beyond this.
Andersen Window Prices In SFOHi! I saw your website and am so glad to have found it! I just spent 3 hrs yesterday with an Anderson rep. My quote after a 30% discount was $55k, for 5 windows and 4 doors. I had expected something closer to half that.
Andersen Renewal Windows Cost BidHi Dane, I received a very high quote from a rep from Renewal by Andersen and I am hoping you can provide other recommendations that may be similar.
[Website Editor Reply]KLM, that is a normal price quote for RBA -- and yes very high as always. Here's my list of recommended brands.
Renewal By Andersen PricesHi Dane, we live in the Raleigh Area. We received a quote for just over 60,000 to replace 22 windows from RBA. Liked the look and quality but they seem excessively expensive. Thank you!
Renewal By Andersen Cost BidOur Renewal By Andersen quote was 13 casement windows and they wanted $62,000. I just couldn't afford that much.
Andersen Renewal Prices QuoteThanks for the quick response Dane. Window replacement has turned out to be more complex and costly than I assumed as so many things are. I received a quote from Andersen Renewal which was steep! I’m considering if I should focus first on finding a well regarded installer. Window Nation is well reviewed by Forbes followed by Andersen Renewal. I would love to move forward with Andersen but the price per window is over 3K per window…..I have many windows….yikes.
[Website Editor Reply]Laura, Window Nation is a quality outfit (not available in your state as far as I know), but Renewal windows are worth $1300 -- an Anlin Del Mar window is better than a Renewal and the performance data backs this up -- Anlin is probably the highest quality option in your state.
Renewal by Andersen Price QuoteGood evening Dane. We are looking to replace the windows in our home as they are the original single paned windows from the early 1990's. Yesterday, Renewal by Andersen came out and quoted a shocking price of $49K for 16 windows, which was then discounted down to $35,000. If I didn't sign a contract that day, I was told that I would lose the discount price. The backlog was 4 to 6 months. I ended up signing a contract for three west facing Low-E4 SmartSun Glass windows for $8,300, which I can still cancel within a few days. After reading through all your reviews, I would love to get your list of your good and great replacement windows in the Phoenix, Arizona area.
[Website Editor Reply]Ken, that does seem to be the MO these days of RBA. Here are my Arizona recommendations: [list pulled].
Average Cost Of Renewal by AndersenGood evening Dane; we are looking to replace the casement windows in our home as they are single pane and 1985 install (Andersen). Today Renewal by Andersen came out and quoted a price of over $150K for 27 windows - some have to be tempered because of Georgia code and proximity to exterior doors or bathtub - they are currently double casements and would be replaced with single casements.
[Website Editor Reply]Amy, here's my list of recommended brands.
Renewal By Andersen Price Per WindowHello Dane. Love your website and it is so helpful. We met with RBA yesterday for the estimation of windows replacement. I’m so shock that the salesperson quoted me $14k for only 3 windows (regular living room’s size) after discount. So are you telling me that the renewal by andersen price per window is $4,500? Their windows are very nice and there are many options, but it is not worth of it, The quality might not be as expensive as the price. Would love your list of great replacement windows, patio door/companies in Bay Area, CA
[Website Editor Reply]Stephanie, I've been seeing more and more RBA quotes at this price point. It's a bit jaw dropping if I'm being honest. California does not have as many quality options as I would like, which I always find quite surprising. But here are my recommendations for replacement windows in Northern California. [List pulled]
RBA Cost Quote In Tuscon, ArizonaHi, we were just (RBA) quoted $8600 for 3 west/south facing windows in Tucson AZ for Low-E4 SmartSun Glass. If we don’y sign today price increases another 5%. Seems a little high even with all work included. Backlog is about 6 most. Do you have a list of other suppliers/installers for Tucson that you believe are reputable?
[Website Editor Reply]Abbie, that is quite a spendy quote -- I think there are probably some better options out there. Here's my list of recommended brands.
Cost of Renewal By Andersen WindowsHello, we recently had a quote from RBA for 26 windows for $50,000! Although impressed with their product, we don’t have that kind of money.
[Website Editor Reply]Julie, that does seem to be the going rate for RBA.
Renewal by Anderson Windows PricesBeen reviewing your on-line article regarding replacement windows. Would like your list of alternates from Renewal by Anderson.
[Website Editor Reply]Brian, that is an expensive bid to be sure! Here's my list of recommended brands.
Renewal By Andersen Cost Per WindowHi Dane, my wife and I live in The Woodlands, TX and received a quote from an Andersen sales rep today. The bid for 34 windows was $82,000. Ten of the 34 are relatively small transoms that don’t open. We were impressed with the look, options, and quality but would rather see if there is a better value. This essentiall means that the Renewal By Andersen cost per window is $2400 plus.
Who else makes a good quality window and can offer dark bronze color frames? Thanks for what you do!
[Website Editor Reply]Kyle, I don't have a lock on who offer the dark bronze frame colors -- alot of companies do, but definitely inquire as to the cost because some companies will charge you a 35% plus upgrade cost, which can really add up! Here is my list of recommended brands and options.
Renewal by Anderson Sticker ShockHello Dane, I just stumbled across your website and am grateful for it. I had Renewal by Anderson provide a bid back in May (see below). I have 29 openings, but I'm still shocked at the quote. Anyway, I'm re-starting the bid process with others and would love your list of great replacement options in South Carolina.
[Website Editor Reply]William, I would be happy to send you my list.
RBA Price QuoteHi Dane/Tim: Love your website - so helpful. Could you please send me your list of recommendations?
[Website Editor Reply]DMS, that's about the most expensive bid I've even heard of. I can send you my list of brands I like for you to peruse.
Renewal by Anderson's QuoteLive in the Nashville TN area. Had Renewal by Anderson’s out and actually loved their products and our rep was amazing! But the cost was in the 6 figures!! 35 windows and 5 doors (3 were French doors). Before discounts, the cost of the windows were almost have the price of our 7k square foot road bought only 12 years ago. I just don’t have that kind of money.
Renewal by Anderson Price QuoteWe are near San Antonio and are looking to replace 3 seven year old 8ft tall French doors. They are contractor doors - hollow core - and are under roof but already seem to be warping and splitting.
[Website Editor Reply]Robin, my top picks for storm windows and doors include the Sunrise Coastal Series, Soft-Lite Barcelona Impact Series, Soft-Lite Armor Impact Series, PGT WinGuard Series, Stanek UltraExtreme Series, CWS Windpact Series, and the Simonton Stormbreaker Series.
Renewal by Anderson Price ListHi Dane, I have a number of quotes attached to the email. I just saw the last company today. Anderson's, Pella's, Home Depot's and American Vision's bids do not include a small circular 24" decorative window above the glider in the living room that is included in the Window Design bid. So all bids except one are 12 windows and 1 patio sliding door. Several of our windows are decorative, non-opening picture windows.
[Website Editor Reply]Margrit, the window bid I would concentrate on is the Anlin Del Mar. It's the best window more or less on the West Coast and it looks like they are quoting you out at the same price as the Alside/Alpine and Simonton Daylight. That looks to me like a very competitive bid. American Vision has a decent reputation -- I wouldn't say stellar, but decent for sure. See if you can request their best installation team -- insist on it and be a stickler for letting them know you need the job to be done perfectly with their best guys. I think this will insure a solid end product!
Renewal by Anderson Windows ComplaintsGood Morning, we had Renewal by Anderson come to our home yesterday and shock us to death! We have 5 windows and a front door. The 5 replacement units were quoted at a "discounted" price of $24k!!! The front door is $10k!!! 2 years ago we had a 2 STORY/2 CAR GARAGE built with a custom garage door for $40k.
[Website Editor Reply]Yikes, that is one pricey bid. Keep looking -- Here is my list of recommended brands and options.
RBA in Bozeman MontanaHi, we just had an estimate completed by RBA in Bozeman, MT and despite it being a very large project (19 windows and 3 sliding doors), our "list price" was quoted at $127,000. With discounts, we were able to get to ~$97,000, but we are going through major sticker shock.
[Website Editor Reply]Paul, here is my list of good and great recommendations for your consideration. You will notice that many of the big players aren't on here -- but the list is based on the overall build of the window and the energy efficiency numbers. For specific numbers, you will have to refer to the pages that list each window... Here is my list of recommended brands and options.
Boston RBA Windows QuoteHi Dane, hoping you can send on your list of good and great recommended list. We received a quote today from RBA in Boston. $42K for 17 double hungs. Just starting our search.
[Website Editor Reply]Seth, no problem. Here is my list of recommended brands and options.
Renewal by Andersen Windows Prices RIRead your informative review on Renewal by Andersen and was hoping you could send a few recommendations for comparable window companies. We are being quoted $12,500 to replace our nine foot slider with a top of the line Andersen in RI.
[Website Editor Reply]Ed, I'm not surprised by that price quote, but I think you can do better for sure... Here is my list of recommended brands and options.
Renewal Andersen Double Hung Windows CostWest Shore Home gave me a bid for $26k on 11 double hung Renewal Andersen windows. Pella of Harrisburg, PA gave us a bid of $13,700 on the Pella 250 and $19,300 on the Pella Impervia. We also have a bid on the Okna 500DX for $9300 and Zen Nirvana for $7500.
Renewal by Anderson Price ListDane, the Renewal by Anderson sales guy just left. $47,037 for 14 double hungs, 5 need to full frame, because we have one window in the front of the house that the frame is rotting and in order to make them match we need to have them all re-framed - is that really how that works? And 1 awning window in the kitchen. They want over $12,000 when we sign the contract and $301 a month at 6.9% for 10 years (we can pay it early and the rate is fixed)
[Website Editor Reply]Stacy, Renewal By Andersen prices are really at the upper end of the spectrum. There are better options for less money in my opinion. Here is my list of recommended brands and options.
Renewal By Andersen Cost EstimateHey Dane, been reading all the info on your site about Renewal By Andersen. REALLY VALUABLE! We live outside Omaha, NE and received a quote tonight for 12 slider windows @ $30,000. Here are the window sizes: 2 @ 3' x 5' and 4 @ 3' x 3' and 4 @ 3' x 4' and 2 @ 6' x 5'. Frankly, I think we did not do a good job of negotiating. We signed the contract and so need to cancel it by Monday. I don't know what we were thinking without doing more research! I feel so stupid.
[Website Editor Reply]Marjie, I am not a real estate expert so my advice should be taken with a grain of salt. But here goes...you will not recoup your $30K investment in one or two year. However, you might be able to recoup $12K to $14K in the sales price of your home -- perhaps...I just don't know whether buyers put a dollar figure into realtor statements like "they just redid all of the windows" or "they just got solar installed."
how Much Are Renewal by Anderson WindowsTim, I just received a quote from Renewal by Anderson that even after all discounts and employee pricing came to over $12000 for four 50'x53" windows. That seems excessive even for a premium brand. I noticed similar experiences on your site and that you could provide a list of alternativea. I would be grateful if you could send me the list.
[Website Editor Reply]David, absolutely, here is the list. [Shoot us an email for our list]
Renewal by Andersen vs SunriseHi, again, Dane. We've revised our specs and I'd like your opinion on which is the better value.
[Website Editor Reply]John, the best value by far is the Sunrise Standard/Classic Ultra U Plus glass package for $32,400. This window is so much better than the Pella 250 and even the Renewal. The performance data supports this claim. It's not a cheap bid, but it's still nice to get the best window at the lowest of your bids.
Andersen Renewal PricesDane, we had our local Andersen Renewal rep out to quote 23 windows for replacement. All are double hung except one frosted picture frame window in the bathroom. They quoted $72,000 but had available discounts this month that totaled $21,000 bringing the final cost to $51,000. Shocked to say the least. I'd heard horror stories about vinyl replacement windows but really just want something mid grade. We move fairly frequently and will only be in this house for another 3-5 years. We live in Memphis, TN, very interested in your suggestions.
[Website Editor Reply]Brian, that price is about what I would expect from Renewal. Really not worth the price tag in my opinion. Quality vinyl windows are quite good these days -- but you will always hear horror stories from people who buy a Silverline window from Andersen as an example and think they are buying a well made vinyl window. Also, the installation company is very important so make sure to look up the company and their cumulative online reviews -- just google "[company name] reviews" and see what comes up. You want a company with lots of reviews and lots of good reviews.
Renewal By Andersen Price NegotiationI received a bid from Renewal By Andersen for 5 casement windows. The total price is $17,806. Are Renewal by Andersen prices negotiable?
[Website Editor Reply]Tray I think there is room to negotiate. Tell them that you are only willing to pay $--- per window (whatever price you feel comfortable with). Then say that if they get an opening in their schedule and want the work, then you're ready to go.
Renewal by Anderson Windows CostTim, my name is Greg, retired Fire Marshall from Moline, Il. I drive a pre-school bus and have a bus aide named Linda (74) She told me yesterday that she was buying Renewal by Anderson windows and was quoted 25,000 for 14 windows (1785) per. This does not seem right to me, you? Company might be out of Peoria, Illinois. Look forward to your response.
[Site Editor's Answer]Greg, the price quote sounds right to me based on what I know RBA charges. However, that is an amazing amount of money to spend on windows for a home. My advice is for your friend to not sign anything with Renewal and instead take some time to find a high quality vinyl window brand and series that is comparable and less expensive.
Renewal by Andersen Prices QuoteRenewal by Andersen quote for 13 windows in northern MI was 33k but with discounts 19.7k! Thought I was dealing with a used car salesman (he did sell cars previously). I liked their product bit seems way too expensive. MI was around 10-11k. More on what MI windows cost.
[Site Editor's Answer]Fred, the Renewal quotes are always quite high. The MI quote sounds quite high for them as well. Definitely best to collect a number of bids to see what you have.
Renewal by Andersen PricesHi, I saw your website and appreciate the question and answer section. My Renewal by Andersen cost quote for French doors and installation which went from about $18,500 to $13,500 by the end of the presentation. I know you only deal with windows but anyway you can let me if their quote is too high?
[Site Editor's Answer]Arnold, probably too high -- that's a lot to pay for a French door and installation. Keep going with your search...
How Much Does Renewal By Andersen CostHi Dane, I live in Portland, Maine - the renewal by andersen cost per window was $2300 - 2700. I laughed in the guys face and said they were off by an order of magnitude at least.
RBA Price QuoteFor 10 windows, one was a big window 8ft by 6 ft, few were 46in wide, I was quoted $35,000 and with discounts, I was at $27,000 for their Fibrex windows with "smart sun" glass, curious if this is about right or if it's too much for what the quote came in at.
[Site Editor's Answer]Way too much. Keep looking and keep getting some bids until you find the fair market price. Here are some suggestions for what to look for.
Renewal By Andersen vs PellaHi Dane, we are looking at replacing 10 windows total in the Milwaukee area. 7 double hung, 2 sliders and 1 larger 3 lite slider (60x96). White/white vinyl.
[Site Editor's Answer]Kevin, these all seem quite high to me. Because they are all high though, leads me to believe that the fair market price for your project is going to be higher than a simple retrofit job. I'd keep getting bids to see what else is out there though. At least until you determine whether your job indeed demands this price point or to see if you can't find a better deal somewhere out there.
Renewal By Andersen CostHello Dane, we've been looking at replacing 22 original 1940s wood windows, as they haven't had any maintenance done on them for at least a decade and it's showing pretty badly. We're in San Diego, about a mile from the coast- some seabreeze, lots of sun, temperature variations usually less than 25 degrees in a day. We're looking to do a mix of casement and double-hung, putting hungs where visible from the street and in a few key rooms, but with casements elsewhere for improved airflow. Keeping wood or a wood-like appearance matters for the style of the home.
[Site Editor's Answer]Hi Jeff. I keep saying that if a quality outfit like Sunrise came into the west coast market and offered high quality vinyl windows with their upgraded interior wood laminates, they would make a killing. The wood laminates are pretty darn realistic so you get the energy efficiency of a vinyl window with the look of wood (well pretty close anyway.) But I digress...
Renewal by Andersen Price ListHello! We have bids on six casement windows and two double-hungs. We have received three bids:
Why Is Renewal By Andersen So Expensive?Looking to purchase 9 windows from Renewal, but I think am being overcharged. These are the charges:
[Site Editor's Answer]Elizabeth, wow, those are some very expensive quotes. I would cancel any contract you have and keep looking. Here is my list of recommended brands and options.
Is Renewal By Andersen Worth The MoneyWe were all set to purchase replacements per the attached contract with Renewal by Andersen; we have since cancelled the contract and are doing more research. After reading the information and reviews on your website, this seems outrageously high, even for RBA (comes out to $2,430 per opening installed, which is 17 regular windows, 2 specialty windows and a patio door).
[Site Editor's Answer]Rachelle, that is very high, even for RBA. The irony is that the Andersen 100 frame is made of the exact same material as the Renewal window, both Andersen Fibrex, which is a composite mix of vinyl and wood. If you are stuck on a composite frame, there are not many options your way.
Renewal By Andersen PricesDane, hank you for taking the time to respond. I will look at the 5 Star quote tool. Are there any particular reasons you would not recommend either Pella or Renewal by Andersen for Houston area?
[Site Editor's Answer]Renewal By Andersen prices will start out at $2K a window and you have to get them down to $1200 to $1500...just not worth that price for what you are getting...essentially an Andersen 100 with some nice bells and whistles.
Renewal by Andersen CostsI live in the Philadelphia metro area and am replacing one slider and 8 double hungs. We have two quotes thus far.
Are Renewal By Andersen Windows Overpriced?I'm in Phoenix AZ and I'm looking to replace 7 windows and two sliding doors. I signed a contract that can be cancelled within 3 days with RBA. My biggest concerns is that the majority of my windows are on the very hot west side of my house. I have heard horror stories of vinyl and wood windows here. Below is what I'm contracted for. I'd love your recommendations for dry, hot climates.
[Site Editor's Answer]Hi Lisa, so...replacing 7 windows and 2 patio doors shouldn't cost $32,278. That's more or less highway robbery in my opinion. I would cancel the order -- at least until you get a better sense of what is out there.
Renewal By Andersen Price vs Pella ImperviaI live in Jacksonville beach Florida. I have a lot of windows in my home and am looking at a phased project. So far I have a Pella (fiberglass) quote at $21k and a Renewal By Anderson cost quote at $28k for 13 replacements. I have sticker shock. Why is it 1500-2000 an opening????
[Site Editor's Answer]Hi Alice, so those are very high bids, although I will say that COVID demand has really tweaked prices as of late (mostly because these companies have so much business that they can charge an arm and a leg.) Having said that, I'm still seeing very reasonable bids as well. Pella fiberglass and RBA are both way overpriced in my opinion.
Renewal By Andersen Window Cost Per WindowDane, I just received a Renewal By Anderson window cost quote and gave them a check for 1610.00 to start the project. I have three days to rescind this contract and would like your opinion.
[Site Editor's Answer]Alysyn, I agree with your assessment of $1500...although if additional work on the frames etc. is required, the price could be much higher. I'd say $1500 to $2000 for a large slider is about right. Yes, I would personally rescind the contract and continue my search. I just think that $4800 is too much money for the job. I'm sure the RBA salesperson was nice, but it doesn't mean that the Renewal By Andersen Window cost per window should be 2x pricing for a job. Renewal makes a nice product, but their prices are much too expensive for the quality of product. Here is my good and great list of windows for your consideration. All of these windows are going to beat the Renewal window in terms of energy efficiency, and be much less expensive.
Here is my list of recommended brands and options.
Andersen Renewal Cost EstimateHello Dane & Tim, we own a ranch in SE Michigan, and are looking for options to replace our windows.
[Site Editor's Answer]Sanchari, here is my list of recommended brands and options. I would start here. Alside Mezzo & Revere windows are fine, but not what I would consider good or great. The Power Home Remodel sounds like a bust to me.
Why Are Andersen Windows So Expensive?I live in NE Florida and will be replacing 20 windows and two sliding glass doors, both of them large.
Anderson Window PricesHello Dane, I have a question about pricing. I just had someone from Anderson come out and give me a quote on 9 windows. Here are the window sizes: 2, 23x58... 1, 23x34...4, 35x45...1 23x34, and 1 small bathroom window that I don't have measurements. The price was 23,000 and then it went down to 18,030. My question is is this over priced?
[Site Editor's Answer]Serreita, yes that is way too expensive for 9 windows. Definitely change your mind and spend some time searching around for a better deal. I'm going to send you my advice list that includes some options to look at. More on window prices by size.
[Site Editor's Answer]Good Morning Dane, thank you so much for getting back to me I really appreciate it. I did cancel my contact with Anderson, $18,030 is a lot of money for me. I did get another bit from Community Builders they had a better price and I think was good windows.( 9,000 to 13,000) I will keep looking before I make a decision. Thank you for your help.
Renewal by Anderson Window CostHello, I got a couple quotes. The Renewal by Anderson price was $86K I am not even considering and another from Apex. The Apex windows cost for $30k flat. I signed with Apex but I still have a day to rescind my contract. The quote says it's for 43 windows but they are counting several transoms and a couple half circles. No idea if that's standard or a sales tactic. I don't mind paying a fair price but I have no idea what that is in my case.
[Site Editor's Answer]Terry, I can’t tell you if this is a fair price or not just by these two bids. It’s certainly in the ballpark of fair, especially given the Renewal cost quote. I don’t think its unfair. To truly know if its fair, I would think you’d need to get two more like bids. Apex should honor that price, but their sales tactics aren’t always the best.
Is Renewal By Andersen OverpricedThough I would share my bids with others: 1 sliding door, 7 single hungs, 6 sliders, 1 rather large XOX slider, and 1 picture window.
Renewal By Andersen Window CostHi, I just met with an Andersen rep tonight -- the Renewal By Andersen window cost was $45K and change prior to a 25 % discount and a 2.99% rate for 10 years (one option). The windows are pretty standard double hung using the existing frames (in a house built in 1782). The cost seems to be about twice what you've referenced as being on the high end. The monthly payments wouldn't be a big stretch (for 10 years!), but after reading your online info, I feel like I'm really being taken for a chump.
[Site Editor's Answer]Judith, it sounds like you got a quote from a Renewal By Andersen rep. That sounds like their price scheme to me —- they have a tendency to bid out projects in that $2000 to $3000 range. Some consumers bite, and others go with them when they bring the price down to $1200 a window. Either way, that is a lot of money to be paying for a window and installation.
Renewal By Andersen Window CostsI have a all-brick house with original Andersens. I have six (6) single hungs 32"W by 60"H. In addition, we have ten (1) "double wides" -- measuring 64" W by 60" H.
[Website Editor Reply]Dale, I have no idea what the Renewal dealer in your area will charge you for this job. Usually their double hung in a 32” by 60” size will be bid out at like $1200 per window. Very expensive in my opinion and not worth the cost.
How Much Do Andersen Windows Cost InstalledDane, your site has been a wonderful resource. I am replacing wood clads in a house built in 1992 and think I have narrowed my search down to the Marvin Infinity. However, the quote I received seems high compared to the general price per window I see on your site.
[Site Editor's Answer]Vicky, so the Marvin Infinity quote is for $36,765 and the Sunrise Restorations is for $20,770. For me, the Sunrise Restorations is a fantastic window that is definitely as good as the Marvin Infinity. This would be my choice in a heartbeat (given the almost double cost of the Marvin). The inability of the window to be made in a round top is problematic. I would find another vinyl window manufacturer that uses a slim frame like the Restorations for the round top and see how close you can get the frame widths to match.
Renewal by Andersen PricesHi Dane, do you have any knowledge or info about Window World?
Renewal by Andersen Price QuoteHello,
[Website Editor Reply]Edie, I would say $6K for three windows is very very expensive. Here's my thoughts: take an hour and see if you can find any of the following brands.
Average Cost Of Renewal By Andersen WindowsHello, I'm wondering if you could help me with a purchase for my recently bought home that my significant other and I are remodeling. We had renewal come out and give a quote and the renewal by andersen cost per window was $2K. The lowest price I could get them to do was 22,000. They sell there installation well and say everything is warrantied for 20 years except hardware which is 10 years.
[Website Editor Reply]Hi Matt, so Renewal By Andersen window cost tends to be say $1500 to $1200 per window. They have really high overhead/marketing so they tend to charge alot. In my opinion, about twice as expensive as the quality of window they sell. Every company makes the windows custom for each opening.
Renewal By Andersen Window Prices in WisconsinHi Dane, I ran across your site information and found it very interesting and felt it might be helpful to me. Do you only deal with California window manufacturers or dealers and installers or customers?
[Website Editor Reply]Johnnie, there are some very good options for you in Wisconsin. Okna and Marvin will be available in your area for sure. Marvin makes a very good fiberglass unit, which will run 1/3 more than vinyl, but worth a look just to know their pricing etc.
RBA Quote We need window replacements for our 40 windows in our Georgia home. We have two bids.
[Site Editor's Answer]Each one seems high to me. I'd get more bids to see if you can't get a lower price point for your project.
Renewal Quote vs. Slocomb Solstice 144I have a quote on 34 casements and one sliding door. I have two bids, but I'm wondering if I should just call up Pella, who originally installed my window.
[Site Editor's Answer]Allison, the Slocomb Solstice 144 is the much better option over the Renewal for the price. Renewal makes a nice window, but that's a lots to pay for 34 windows and a door. I wouldn't go back to Pella for vinyl windows, only for wood clad.
Renewal By Anderson PricesI recently (3 years ago) bought bought Renewal By Anderson windows: 3 double hungs (1 wide) and 1 slider. Total cost was $5,236. I thought it was too much and now I want to consider going with a vinyl window. Is this smart?
[Site Editor's Answer]Suzanne, Renewal is not a cheap option. I personally think vinyl is an excellent way to go as long as you buy a quality vinyl window. Some brands I like include
Okna, Sunrise, Polaris, Soft-Lite, Kensington, Zen and Simonton. You can buy their premium window series and still save a good 30% over the Renewals.
Renewal By Anderson CostStarting to get overly confused on which window and company to use. Live western Suburb of Philadelphia. Just want a decent window that is somewhat efficient will last five years.
[Site Editor's Answer]Calvin, that RBA quote is pretty much what they charge for their windows. I agree, it seems pretty crazy to pay $1850 per window.
Renewal by Anderson Cost BidWe're replacing 20 windows, where about half are funky and odd shapes so not an inexpensive project.
[Website Editor Reply]The Renewal would probably be my pick here. They are often overpriced, but if that what the Marvin Infinity is being bid out at then the RBA may be call.
Renewal vs SunriseHi Dane, we have 42 windows that average around 36" x 60" with some quarter and half round shapes.
Is Renewal By Andersen OverpricedWe need to replace 3 sliders and 7 double-hung replacements.. We received Renewal by Andersen cost bid for $24,000 and another from Simonton on their Impressions 9800 for $7,000. I was sort of shocked by how different the pricing was for the same project.
Andersen Renewal vs PellaI have replace 50 windows, all different sizes.
Renewal By Andersen QuoteWe just purchased our first home, and all of the windows need to go. There are 40 windows in all. So far, we have received bids from two window companies. The bids are so far apart that it is difficult to know which is fair. Any clarity would be most appreciated.
[Website Editor Reply]Catharine, you are correct that the bids you have are completely different. The Renewal is very expensive, while the Alside price quote is probably a lower quality than what you should be looking for. The Mezzo is okay, but it uses a somewhat flimsy frame in my opinion and I don't feel like this is the sort of window that's going to last as well as better made products out there. I'd look at Okna, Soft-Lite, Sunrise, and Polaris and see if you can find a window in the $500 to $550 range that will give you better long term value, even if that means spending more today.
Renewal By Andersen Window Replacement CostI live in PA and recently got a quote from RBA —4 composite double hungs, 36" X 4" — cost was $6200.
[Website Editor Reply]George, RBA is very expensive. Although it is quite a good product with a good warranty, it's overpriced IMO.
RBA CostsI have 4 estimates on 8 windows (all 36 inch by 59 inch), 1 smaller bathroom window, and 1 bow window (3 windows mulled together).
RBA Window CostsI have 14 replacements and have two bids thus far. They are very different from one another. At first, the RBA was $1700 installed, but he got it down to $1333 per window. The Paradigm quote was for same job, $680 per window.
Andersen Renewal Windows CostI have an estimate, $18,000 to $22,000 for 9 windows. The $22K is for 1 awning, 6 double hungs, and 2 side-by-side casements. This price quote is so much higher than what I've seen so I'm trying to reconcile this.
Renewal By Anderson PricesHi, I live in a 1937 Tudor in N. Virginia. I'm replacing 47 windows and a patio door. All will be casements with large bay/box in front. The bay/box will be rectangular casements. The Renewal by Anderson window cost was $66k, although the bid was only for 42 windows and the door.
Renewal By Anderson QuoteHi we have 20 Windows need replacing. We had house built 1992. Had Renewal By Anderson come out quoted 31,445.00. We live in Nashville TN. I would like a good window but not with the price of Anderson. Can you help us. Anderson told us vinyl isn't any good. Thank you Judy
[Site Editor's Answer]Hi Judy, Renewal By Anderson quotes are often in that range. Interestingly, their performance data can't hold a candle to the top tier vinyl windows on the market. When it comes to looks, vinyl can be a bit boring, but the top tier vinyl windows are more durable and energy efficient than the composite fibrex that the RBA is made of. Several of the top vinyl windows do come in interior laminates that equal the interior look of the RBA (for half the cost).
Renewal By Andersen Window CostI received 4 quotes for 2 fiberglass replacement windows approximately 60 x60 each. They face the ocean side and the house was built in 1947. The quotes I received range widely.
[Site Editor's Answer]Joyce, in terms of the windows themselves, Milgard makes a good fiberglass series. RBA makes a good composite as well, but they are almost always quite a bit higher and not worth the price they charge.
Renewal By Andersen PricesDane, I recently bought Renewal. I bought 10 double hungs and 2 picture fixed frames (complete tear out) along with new trim and sills on the interior. I paid $19,000 after discounts, but we were very happy with the installation process, no mess or problems, and my energy bills did go down with the new windows.
Renewal By Andersen Window Costswanted to replace 7 windows plus a slider with RBA. After 5 hours in my house with their salesman pitching the superiority of their windows I ended up purchasing one casement (34.5 x 57.5) and one double-hung (47 x 57) for $4427 plus $288.30 for a mandatory building permit. I planned to complete the rest of the windows within the year, however due to a breach of trust and discomfort with the salesman I am now looking for a different company. I love the windows, I don’t love the price tag, I really don’t like the changing prices and sales tactics.
[Website Editor Reply]Jacque, RBA makes a nice window, but they are VERY expensive. The Andersen 100 window is made of the same fibrex material and is often sold in home depot for around $250 to $450 for the window, depending on the upgrades, glass, etc. that you want. You would obviously have to find your own installer -- I wouldn't recommend going with the HD subcontractors, but you could find an experienced installer and get them to install it for you.
The other option is to go with a vinyl window -- Milgard, Amerimax and Anlin should all be available in California and they make a good quality product at a nice price point. Have the local dealers or companies come out and give you a bid and compare how the window looks to your current Renewal Windows. Marvin Infinity is a fiberglass window, but it should look somewhat similar to the Renewal as well.
Renewal By Andersen Prices We have a farmhouse in Northern Wisconsin that was built around 1900. We need to replace 9 windows where the frames have rotted out. We had Anderson Replacement Windows come out for a consult and they are quoting us $16,000 installed for their Fibrex series. What makes this attractive is their 5 year, zero interest, financing and 1 day professional installation with replacement of all rotted wood. Is this a good deal - or is this ridiculously high?
[Website Editor Reply]Linda, in my opinion, $16,000 for 9 windows is ridiculously high, regardless of how you finance it or what terms they provide. The Renewal windows are nice, but they are actually more or less an upgraded Andersen 100 series, but much more expensive.
Renewal By Andersen Window CostHi Dane, we are contemplating a quote from RBA. It is for three double hung, one picture window, and one rather large bay window (92'x50"). the quote is for $13,400. I know that we could most likely have it done for a lot cheaper, but how much would the quality suffer, if at all. We don't mind paying more for quality, but is this excessive? We live in New England.The quote includes everything from the cost of the windows, to wrapped sills and installing a hip style roof over the bay window. Thanks

[Website Editor Reply]Paul, Renewal By Andersen prices tend to be at the top of the cost spectrum. The company makes a nice window, but it's nothing mind blowing in terms of performance etc. If it were me, I would get a few more bids -- see if there are any local dealers who sell Okna, Soft-Lite, Zen, Sunrise, Polaris, Andersen 100 Series (which is more of less the RBA frame), even Harvey.
Renewal By Andersen Cost Per WindowHi, I just got an estimate of $47,600.00 from Anderson Renewal on Runway Drive in Tucson to install 22 windows (2 are sliding glass doors). Is this ridiculous or is this how much it costs? Thanks so much.
[Site Editor's Response]Hi Carol, this is a pretty standard Renewal By Andersen window cost quote. As to the ridiculousness of the price, I suppose it is all in the eyes of the beholder. $1000 each is very expensive and that's typically what RBA quotes are, at the top end of the price range. Many consumers are willing to pay this and they like that the company has the JD Powers And Associates accolades, etc.
