How Much Do New Windows Cost in Scotland? (2026 Price Guide)
By Elite Group Scotland | Windows, Buying Guides
One of the first questions homeowners ask when thinking about new windows is: how much is this going to cost? It's a fair question, and the honest answer is that it depends — on the type of window, the number of windows, the size of your property, and the specification you choose.
In this guide we break down typical window costs for Scottish homes in 2026, so you know what to expect before you get a quote.
What Affects the Cost of New Windows?
Several factors influence the final price of a window installation:
1. Window type
Different window styles come at different price points. Casement windows are typically the most affordable, while sash windows and tilt-and-turn windows cost more due to their more complex mechanisms.
2. Size
Larger windows require more material and more labour to install, so they cost more than smaller windows.
3. Number of windows
Most installers will offer a better per-window price if you're replacing multiple windows at once, since it reduces the number of separate visits and setup costs.
4. Glazing specification
Standard double glazing is the most common option. Triple glazing is available and provides better thermal and acoustic performance, but comes at a higher price — typically 20-40% more than double glazing.
5. Colour and finish
White uPVC windows are the most affordable. Coloured or woodgrain-effect finishes cost more, as do dual-colour options (different colour inside and outside).
6. Installation complexity
Difficult access, non-standard openings, or older properties with unusual frame sizes can add to the installation cost.
Typical Window Prices in Scotland (2026)
The following are approximate supply-and-fit prices including VAT. These are broad guidelines — your actual quote may vary depending on the factors above.
Casement Windows
The most popular window style in Scotland. A standard casement window, supply and fit, typically costs between £640 and £1240 per window. For a typical 3-bedroom house replacing all windows, you might expect to pay £5,500 to £9,000 in total.
Tilt & Turn Windows
Tilt and turn windows are slightly more expensive due to their dual-opening mechanism. Expect to pay £500 to £900 per window supply and fit.
Vertical Slider Sash Windows
Sash windows are the most expensive uPVC window type, due to their more complex counterbalance mechanism. Prices typically range from £700 to £1,200 per window supply and fit.
Are Cheaper Windows Worth It?
It can be tempting to go with the cheapest quote, but windows are a long-term investment. A poorly installed or low-spec window will cost more in the long run through higher energy bills, failed seals, and early replacement.
Look for an installer who uses reputable profile systems (such as VEKA, which we use at Elite Group Scotland), offers a meaningful guarantee, and has verified reviews from local customers.
