Dormer Window Prices & Costs

The dormer is the portion of roof that has been built ou, effectively turning unused attic space into a bedroom, living area or office. The prices vary depending on whether you need to construct an entirely new dormer or whether you are just replacing the windows.

Cost For A Dormer Window Itself
Entry Level: $150 to $250
Dormer windows prices at the entry level usually come with a vinyl frame and are fixed windows, this means they do not open, and are used for visual appeal and additional light in a small space. These will typically be small to standard in size and won't be custom made or include any upgrades. The glass will be a clear or lower end low-e glass without any energy efficiency upgrades.
Mid Range: $250 to $400
Standard dormer windows are available in a choice of frame materials from composite or fiberglass to low-end wood and higher-end vinyl. The advantage is that these are not fixed windows and can be opened with the choice of either double hung, awnings, casement or single hung windows. These are larger windows that use low-E efficiency glass with argon fills. Another advantage to these dormer windows is that they can be used as a fire exit.
High End: $400 to $1,500
The high-end dormer windows are often custom made, they can include a number of windows mulled together or a selection of larger windows. The frame options are often wood clad, but you can choose an aluminum cladding which will protect the outside. The glass offered is usually top quality with good insulation and energy efficiency.
Cost To Install The Window
The cost of installation can vary from $125 to $800. A basic installation for just replacing a window can cost around $125. If the window requires construction, framing, sealing and custom work, you can expect the price to increase quickly up to this upper range.
