What’s Involved
What’s Involved in Replacing Your Windows?
Window replacement involves more than simply taking one window out and putting another in. Every opening needs to be measured carefully so the new window fits correctly without unnecessary damage to the surrounding brickwork, render or internal finishes.
1. Measure Existing Openings
We inspect your existing windows, opening sizes, surrounding finishes and access requirements.
2. Select Your Replacement Windows
We’ll help you choose a suitable aluminium window style, glass specification and finish for your home.
3. Custom Manufacturing
Your replacement windows are manufactured to suit the existing structural openings.
4. Remove Existing Windows
Old windows are carefully removed with attention to surrounding render, brickwork and internal reveals.
5. Install & Seal
The new aluminium windows are installed, aligned, secured and sealed.
6. Final Finish & Disposal
We inspect the installation, clean the work area and remove the old windows from site.
Cost Section
How Much Does Window Replacement Cost in Sydney?
Aluminium window replacement cost depends on the size of the opening, window style, glass specification, access, condition of the existing frame and the amount of finishing work required.
For accurate pricing, every replacement project should be measured individually.
The easiest way to get an accurate figure is to send us photos of your existing windows and arrange a measure.

Timeframe & Disruption
How Long Does Window Replacement Take?
Window replacement is planned to minimise the amount of time your home is exposed and reduce disruption to your normal routine.
Manufacturing Lead Time
Your new windows are manufactured before the existing windows are removed.
Will My Home Be Left Open Overnight?
Replacement work is planned so openings can be made secure before the installation team leaves site.
What About Bad Weather?
Weather conditions can affect removal and installation schedules, particularly where openings would be exposed to rain.
Protecting Your Property
Will Replacing My Windows Damage the Walls or Render?
One of the biggest concerns with window replacement is what happens to the area surrounding the existing frame.
Our installers carefully remove existing windows with the aim of protecting surrounding brickwork, render and internal reveals wherever possible.
The amount of disturbance depends on how the original windows were installed, the age of the property and the condition of the surrounding finishes.
If additional making-good work is likely to be required, we’ll discuss this with you before the replacement begins.
Matching Existing Windows
Can New Windows Match the Rest of My Home?
Replacement windows don’t always need to look obviously new.
We can help you select aluminium profiles, frame colours and window styles that complement the remaining windows and architectural character of your home.
Frame Colours
A wide range of powder-coated finishes is available, including popular contemporary and traditional colours.
Window Profiles
Where possible, we can recommend profiles that maintain similar proportions and sightlines to your existing windows.
Traditional Homes
Double hung, awning and other suitable aluminium window styles can help maintain the appearance of older and character homes while providing the benefits of modern aluminium frames.
Timber to Aluminium
Replacing Timber Windows With Aluminium
Replacing ageing timber windows with aluminium can reduce ongoing maintenance while giving your home a cleaner, more modern window system.
| Timber Windows | Aluminium Replacement Windows |
|---|---|
| Require regular painting and maintenance | Low-maintenance powder-coated finish |
| Can swell, rot or deteriorate | Won’t rot or warp |
| Older seals may allow drafts | Modern seals improve weather protection |
| Existing glass may offer limited performance | Modern glazing options available |
| Ongoing upkeep required | Designed for long-term durability |
Repair or Replace
Should You Repair or Replace Your Windows?
Not every damaged window needs complete replacement.
Repair May Be Better When:
- Only the glass is cracked or damaged
- Locks or hardware need replacing
- The aluminium frame is still in good condition
- The problem is isolated to one component
Replacement May Be Better When:
- Frames are badly deteriorated
- Windows no longer seal properly
- Multiple windows are failing
- You want to change window styles
- Existing windows are difficult to operate
- You’re upgrading glazing or energy performance
- Timber frames require ongoing repair or maintenance
If the frame is still in good condition and only the glass is damaged, glass repair or replacement may be the more economical option.

Approvals
Do You Need Council Approval to Replace Windows in Sydney?
Like-for-like window replacement will generally not require council approval where the opening, appearance and structural configuration remain substantially unchanged.
However, additional requirements may apply where:
- The property is heritage listed
- The property is within a heritage conservation area
- The window opening is being structurally altered
- The building is strata titled
- External appearance changes are controlled
If your property has heritage, strata or other planning restrictions, approval requirements should be confirmed before work begins.
Strata Window Replacement
Window replacement in strata buildings may require approval from the owners corporation before work starts.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does window replacement cost in Sydney?
Window replacement cost varies depending on window size, style, glass specification, access and the condition of the existing opening. We provide a measure and quote so pricing can be based on the actual replacement work required.
How long does window replacement take?
The installation timeframe depends on the number of windows and complexity of the project. Your replacement windows are manufactured before removal begins, helping minimise the amount of time openings are exposed.
Will replacing my windows damage the render or brickwork?
Existing windows are removed carefully with the aim of protecting surrounding render, brickwork and internal finishes. Some disturbance may be unavoidable depending on the original installation and condition of the opening.
Can you replace old timber windows with aluminium?
Aluminium replacement windows can provide a lower-maintenance alternative to ageing timber frames.
Can you match my existing windows?
Yes. We can help select suitable frame colours, profiles and window styles to complement the remaining windows and character of your property.
Should I repair or replace my windows?
Repair is often suitable where the problem is limited to glass, locks or hardware and the frame remains in good condition. Replacement is usually more appropriate where frames are deteriorated, windows no longer seal correctly or you’re looking for a broader upgrade.
Can you replace just the glass?
Yes. Where the existing frame remains serviceable, glass replacement may be possible without replacing the complete window.
Do I need council approval to replace windows?
Like-for-like replacement generally won’t require council approval, but heritage properties, conservation areas, strata buildings and structural changes may have additional requirements.
Can replacement windows be double glazed?
Yes. Compatible aluminium window systems can be manufactured with double glazing for improved thermal and acoustic performance.
Can I change the style of window when replacing it?
In many cases, yes. Depending on the opening and project requirements, an existing window may be replaced with a different style such as sliding, awning, double hung, louvre or fixed.

Yes. Aluminium sliding and other door replacement can be assessed alongside window replacement.
