There will really come a time when most, if not all, of your windows will need replacement. But since this is a large project with significant costs, some homeowners aren’t ready to have all their windows replaced at once. Here are a few tips on replacing multiple windows.

How Many Windows Should I Replace at a Time?

Do I Need to Replace All My Windows at the Same Time?

Although it has some benefits that are worth considering, you don’t necessarily have to replace your windows all at once. It’s OK to phase replacements over several years or according to a timeline that suits your needs.


However, keep in mind that you should always prioritize safety. If your home has several old windows that are a potential hazard, you might want to start with those. Defective glass, inoperable windows and rot along the window frames are some of the signs that your windows could be a safety risk.


If you need more specific advice, a designer, consultant or retail dealer can offer window design suggestions that will help you keep the architectural integrity of your home and save money. They can also help you decide which windows to replace first if none of your windows need urgent action. Typically, they focus on regaining functionality and retaining the aesthetics of your home.

How Can I Save on Window Replacement

Although it’s not necessary to replace all your windows in one go, you might still want to consider changing multiple windows at a time so that you can take advantage of the savings that you can get from special deals or discounts. It’s common for dealers to offer deals on installation when customers buy five to eight windows at a time.
