Window replacement: what moves the price in Oregon
Frame material
Vinyl windows run $350-$1,500 each installed, fiberglass $400-$2,000, composite $400-$2,300, and wood $800-$3,800 (HomeGuide).
Window type
Single-hung and picture windows are cheapest; bay and bow windows can reach $3,000-$8,000+.
Count
Replacing 10 to 15 windows runs $4,500-$22,500; at 25 windows it is $11,250-$37,500.
Permit
Window permits are $50-$200 each, or $400-$600 total for a multi-window job, and are often only needed when you change the opening (HomeGuide). No permit fee is included here because many cities do not ask for one on same-size replacements.
Oregon seasons and windows
Season matters for windows. For each Oregon metro below we took NOAA's 1991-2020 monthly normals from the nearest suitable station and counted comfortable months for exterior installation.
Portland has the longest comfortable season of the metros we cover in Oregon at 12 months; Medford has the shortest at 10 (September through June). Rainfall runs from 11 inches a year in Bend to 41 inches in Eugene.
We do not adjust prices by month, because we have no reliable published data on seasonal pricing. Timing is still worth raising when you collect bids.
| Metro | Jan avg low °F | Jul avg high °F | Precip (in/yr) | Comfortable months |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Portland | 36 | 82 | 37 | 12: all year |
| Salem | 36 | 84 | 40 | 12: all year |
| Eugene | 35 | 84 | 41 | 12: all year |
| Bend | 25 | 84 | 11 | 10: February through November |
| Medford | 33 | 92 | 18 | 10: September through June |
Which Oregon city is cheapest for windows?
2 of the 5 metros sit above the statewide midpoint of $10,500, and the top-to-bottom gap is 5%. Each row prices the default size with that metro's own BLS wages and BEA price levels, so the gap between rows is real local variation rather than a flat markup.
| Metro | Range (10 windows) | Midpoint | vs. state |
|---|---|---|---|
| Portland, OR | $5,050 – $16,500 | $10,800 | +3% |
| Salem, OR | $4,950 – $16,300 | $10,600 | +1% |

What glaziers and the other trades earn in Oregon
Statewide wages come from BLS's state-level estimates, which blend big cities with small towns and rural areas. 3 trades drive the labor line for this job, and the weighted ratio against the national wage level is 1.15 for Oregon.
For glaziers (47-2121, weighted 50%) the local median is $34.08 an hour, which is 24% above the national $27.44. The middle half of them earn between $24.40 and $48.34 an hour. BLS counts 700 of them working in the state, 3.6 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 3.8), so the local bench is about average.
For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 40%) the local median is $30.23 an hour, which is 4% above the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $24.26 and $44.89 an hour. BLS counts 15,110 of them working in the state, 76.8 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is deeper than average.
General maintenance and repair workers (49-9071), 10% of the weighting: a median of $26.13 an hour, 10% above the US median of $23.84. The middle half of them earn between $21.97 and $30.56 an hour. About 16,160 work in the state. That is 82.2 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 98.4 nationally, so expect fewer local crews to bid.
A crew paid at the 75th percentile for glaziers ($48.34 an hour) would add about $690 to the statewide midpoint; one at the 25th percentile ($24.40) would take off about $470. Use that as a rough guide to how far a bid can sit from our midpoint on wages alone.
BLS counts 1,967,130 jobs across Oregon (May 2025), which is 1.3% of US employment.
| Trade | Weight | 25th pct | Median | 75th pct | US median | Ratio | Level used |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Glaziers (47-2121) | 50% | $24.40 | $34.08 | $48.34 | $27.44 | 1.24 | state |
| Carpenters (47-2031) | 40% | $24.26 | $30.23 | $44.89 | $29.12 | 1.04 | state |
| General maintenance and repair workers (49-9071) | 10% | $21.97 | $26.13 | $30.56 | $23.84 | 1.10 | state |
