Where the Eugene price comes from
We price the labor side from BLS wage data for 3 trades: glaziers at 50%, carpenters at 40%, general maintenance and repair workers at 10%. Weighted together, Eugene wages are 1.13 times the national level. Labor makes up about 29% of the midpoint estimate (27% at national prices). BLS does not publish this trade for the metro, so we used the Oregon statewide median.
Materials are scaled with BEA's regional price parity for goods. Eugene is at 105.3 against 100 for the US, so a materials line of $7,100 nationally becomes $7,450 here (midpoint, 10 windows). Permits follow the all-items index of 101.6: $0 to $0.
Data note: 50% of the labor weighting for this project uses a statewide median because BLS has no published metro figure for that trade in Eugene. The wage table below marks each row.
Eugene weather and the window replacement calendar
Climate numbers on this page come from NOAA's 1991-2020 U.S. Climate Normals at the nearest suitable station, Eugene Mahlon Sweet Ap (5 miles from the city center). They are 30-year averages, so any one year can run hotter, colder or wetter.
Weather is not a serious constraint for exterior installation in Eugene: no month in the averages is cold enough (an average daytime high under 45°F) or hot enough (an average daytime high of 90°F or more) to rule it out, so the workable window is all year.
Eugene gets about 41 inches of precipitation in a normal year. The wettest months are January, November and December (7.2 inches in December). The station averages about 18 days a year at 90°F or above.
We do not adjust the estimate by month, because we have no reliable published data on seasonal pricing. It is still worth asking contractors whether an off-peak start date changes their bid.

What local crews earn in Eugene
The labor line is built from BLS wage data, one trade at a time. This job draws on 3 trades. We compare each trade's local median with the US median, weight the ratios by how much of the job each trade does, and apply the blend to the national labor cost. For Eugene the blend is 1.13.
Glaziers (47-2121) carry 50% of the labor weighting. BLS does not publish this trade for the Eugene metro, so we used the Oregon statewide median: $34.08 an hour against $27.44 for the US. The middle half of them earn between $24.40 and $48.34 an hour.
Carpenters (47-2031), 40% of the weighting: a median of $30.09 an hour, 3% above the US median of $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $24.10 and $35.05 an hour. About 710 work in the metro. That is 45.0 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 43.1 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.
For general maintenance and repair workers (49-9071, weighted 10%) the local median is $23.67 an hour, which is in line with the national $23.84. The middle half of them earn between $21.54 and $28.44 an hour. BLS counts 1,600 of them working in the area, 101.5 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 98.4), so the local bench is about average.
A quick sensitivity check: moving the lead trade (glaziers) from the median to the 75th percentile wage adds about $690 to the midpoint estimate; the 25th percentile takes off about $470. That is a swing of roughly 4.5% to 6.6% of the total, which is useful for judging whether a bid reflects wages or something else, such as scope or margin.
Eugene-Springfield has 157,710 jobs in total (BLS, May 2025), ranking 150th by size among the 300 metros on this site.
| Trade | Weight | 25th pct | Median | 75th pct | US median | Ratio | Level used |
