Double-Glazing - Doors and Windows

karvala

I was wondering what sort of price I should expect to pay for full double-glazing job (doors and windows) in a fairly standard 3-bed terraced house. It would be for white uPVC without any optional extras such a trickle vents, brass handles, composite doors etc., based on the following sizes:-

WINDOWS
Bedroom 1: 231 x 102, 4 panels, 3 openers (2 side, 1 top)
Bedroom 2: 175 x 102, 4 panels, 3 openers (2 side, 1 top)
Bedroom 3: 175 x 102, 4 panels, 3 openers (2 side, 1 top)
Bathroom: 114 x 102, 2 panels, 1 opener (1 top)
Landing: 58 x 178, 1 panel, 0 openers
Kitchen 1: 117 x 102, 3 panels, 2 openers (1 side, 1 top)
Kitchen 2: 41 x 74, 1 panel, 0 openers
Kitchen 3: 43 x 104, 1 panel, 0 openers
Hall (side panel next to door): 53 x 170, 1 panel, 0 openers
Living Room 1 (side panel left of patio door): 41 x 132, 1 panel, 0 openers
Living Room 2 (side panel right of patio door): 41 x 132, 1 panel, 0 openers
Living Room 3 (side panel right of patio door): 234 x 173, 5 panels, 4 openers (2 side, 2 top-side)
DOORS
1 Front door (white uPVC panelled; top Georgian glass arch)
1 Back door (white uPVC, single pane half-glazed)
1 Pair of patio doors (white uPVC, single pane)

It looks like a lot of items there, but many of them are just small single panes, or next to doors.

What sort of price range should I be thinking of for this? I'm based in Lincolnshire if that makes any difference. Cheers.

Quick update on this situation: had a few quotes, which were mostly in the £6k-£7k region, which based on what I've seen other people posting here, seems too much?

The best I now have is around £5300 from a reputable local company, but could only be done on a commercial basis, i.e. pay up front for the after the survey is completed and contract signed. Normally I would run a mile from that, but the company have a good reputation and have been around for nearly 50 years, and I had to push them hard into lowering their quote to that level.

Has the price of double-glazing gone up significantly in the last year, or is there something I'm missing here? I was honestly expecting normal quotes in the £4k-£5k region for a job like this.

Any info/comments would be appreciated. Thanks.

Prices havent really gone up that much in the last 10 years as frames and glass have either stayed or come down. Price doesnt seem that bad just trying to understand the Living room 3 seems like a bay. cannot understand the commercial thing either and is there some words missing too. A good long established company thats local is a good start though and knowledge of jobs theyve done too.
