Casement Windows in Orlando, FL
Casement windows are hinged at the side and crank outward, operating like a small door rather than sliding up and down. In Orlando’s climate, they earn their keep by sealing tighter than double-hungs when closed, which matters during summer thunderstorms and hurricane season. Hale Windows Orlando installs and services casement windows from professional-grade lines including PGT, CGI, and CWS, with a written price in your hands before any work begins. Call (850) 613-9382 for a free estimate, or read on to understand what casement replacement actually costs here in Orlando. If you’re weighing casement against other styles, our Window Installation in Orlando page covers the full range of options.
We opened in 2009 as part of the Threshold Group family of home-service brands, and we’ve kept a simple policy since day one: a live person answers every call, 24 hours a day, and every technician who comes to your door is background-checked, identity-verified, photo-badged, and pre-announced by name and photo before the visit. You’ll know exactly who is walking up your driveway before you turn the deadbolt.
Key Takeaways
- Casement window replacement in Orlando typically runs $650 to $1,900 per window installed, depending on size, glass package, and frame material.
- Casements seal tighter than sliding windows, which helps with energy costs and storm-driven rain, two things Orlando homeowners deal with constantly.
- Every Hale Windows Orlando job gets a written price before work starts, and every repair carries a written guarantee.
- Our 365-Day Done Right Promise means if the work isn’t right, we make it right. No argument needed.
- We install casements from PGT, CGI, CWS, and ES Windows, matching the product to your home rather than pushing one brand.
When You Need Casement Windows
Casement windows aren’t the right choice for every opening, but Orlando homeowners run into specific situations where they’re clearly the best answer. Here’s what typically brings people to us:
- You’re replacing builder-grade aluminum windows on a home in College Park, Conway, or the Milk District. Those original single-pane frames from the 1970s and 1980s leak air and rattle during afternoon thunderstorms. Casements, because they compress against the frame when closed, seal dramatically better.
- You want maximum airflow in a Florida room or sunroom. Casements open outward and can catch side breezes from directions a slider or double-hung can’t. In neighborhoods like Audubon Park or Baldwin Park, where older homes often have limited cross-ventilation, this matters more than people expect.
- You have a window over a kitchen sink, counter, or piece of furniture. Casement cranks are easier to operate when you have to reach across something, and the crank mechanism is simpler for older hands than lifting a double-hung sash.
- You’re in a wind-mitigation retrofit after an inspection flagged your current windows. Homes in Orlando that get hit with wind-mitigation rating issues often need impact-rated casements from manufacturers like PGT or CGI, which meet Florida Building Code requirements for wind-borne debris regions.
- You want a specific architectural look. Homes in Thornton Park and Delaney Park with Craftsman or mid-century styling often look better with casement windows than with generic sliders, and we can match the sightlines without sacrificing sealing performance.
- Your existing windows have crank failures, broken hinges, or fogged glass. Sometimes the right move is repair rather than replacement. We’ll tell you straight if a new crank mechanism and sash rebuild gets you another eight years before replacement makes sense.
A note on the last point: window glass, particularly tempered panels in larger casements, is not a casual DIY project. If a sash is cracked or a hinge has let go, the weight of the glass is enough to cause a serious injury. Call us. A technician will assess what’s actually wrong and explain your options, including whether repair or replacement is the better value.
Our Casement Windows Process
Here’s exactly how a casement window project goes with Hale Windows Orlando, from first call to final walkthrough:
- You call (850) 613-9382 and a live person answers. No voicemail tree, no callback queue, no “press 2 for sales.” We’re available 24/7, so if a casement window gets knocked out by a storm at 11 p.m., someone picks up and starts scheduling.
- We schedule a measurement visit and tell you who’s coming. Before the appointment, you’ll get the technician’s name and photo sent to you directly. That’s our Threshold Standard. Every technician is background-checked, identity-verified, uniformed, and photo-badged. You’ll know who to expect at the door before you open it.
- We measure, inspect, and talk through your options. Casement windows come in different frame materials, glass packages, and hardware configurations. We’ll walk you through what makes sense for your home, your budget, and Orlando’s wind and heat profile. We’ll also tell you if a casement isn’t the right call for a particular opening, because pushing the wrong product is how you end up with unhappy clients.
- You get a written price before any work begins. Not an estimate with an asterisk. A written price that doesn’t change when the invoice arrives. Every job, every time.
- We install, test, and clean up. The team removes the old window, preps the opening, sets the new casement, levels it, seals it, and tests the crank operation multiple times. We remove the old window and the packaging from your property. You shouldn’t find a stray screw or a piece of old flashing in the flower bed.
- We walk the job with you and hand you the paperwork. That includes the written guarantee on the work. And the 365-Day Done Right Promise applies: if something isn’t right, within a full year we come back and make it right, no argument.
Casement Windows Pricing in Orlando
Casement window replacement in Orlando typically lands between $650 and $1,900 per window installed. That’s the honest range, and it moves based on a handful of factors we’ll explain below. Before you call for a quote, here’s what drives the number:
- Window size and configuration. A basic 24-by-36 casement costs less than a 36-by-60, and a single casement is less than a two-lite pair with a central mullion. Larger glass panels and twin-casement assemblies push the price toward the top of the range.
- Frame material. Vinyl frames start lower than aluminum. Aluminum frames, which many Orlando homeowners choose for coastal or modern looks, cost a bit more. The exact price difference depends on the manufacturer line and the color finish.
- Glass package. Standard low-E glass (a thin coating that blocks heat while letting light through) keeps Orlando cooling bills in check. Impact-rated glass, which is heavier, laminated, and Florida Building Code-compliant for wind-borne debris zones, adds $300 to $700 per window depending on the manufacturer. In Orlando, many homeowners opt for impact glass on primary bedroom windows and standard low-E elsewhere, balancing cost with storm protection.
- Hardware and finish. Crank handles, folding handles, and different lock sets all vary in price. Most people spend between $40 and $150 per window on hardware upgrades.
- The condition of the existing opening. If there’s rot in the frame or water intrusion around the original installation, remediation work adds time and materials. In older Orlando neighborhoods like Colonialtown or Lawsona-Fern Creek, we see this more often with wood-framed houses from the 1950s and 1960s.
- Number of windows. Replacing one window costs more per window than replacing eight, because setup, travel, and project management costs are spread across fewer units. A whole-house casement replacement in a mid-size Orlando home typically runs $7,000 to $15,000 depending on count and glass package.
Here’s a straight breakdown of typical per-window pricing for the brands we install:
- PGT casement windows: $700 to $1,700 installed per window, depending on impact rating and finish.
- CGI casement windows: $900 to $1,900 installed per window. CGI is a premium impact line, and the price reflects it.
- CWS casement windows: $650 to $1,400 installed per window. CWS offers solid mid-range vinyl and aluminum options that work well for Orlando homes that don’t need full impact ratings.
- ES Windows casement windows: $750 to $1,600 installed per window. ES Windows makes a clean aluminum product that suits contemporary Orlando architecture well.
Those numbers include installation, haul-away of the old window, sealing, and the written warranty on our work. They don’t include structural repairs if we find rot or water damage once the old window comes out, and we’ll flag any issues during measurement so you’re not surprised.
Every quote is free, and it’s a written price delivered before you commit to anything. Call (850) 613-9382 and we’ll get you scheduled for a measurement.
Repair vs. Replacement: What Orlando Homeowners Should Know
Sometimes your casement windows don’t need to be replaced. A crank that’s stripped, a hinge that’s sagged, or a lock that doesn’t catch can often be repaired. Repair pricing for casement windows in Orlando runs $150 to $450 for hardware work, and $200 to $600 if the sash needs to come out and be rebuilt. Glass replacement for a failed insulated unit is typically $250 to $700, depending on whether the glass is tempered or impact-rated.
We follow a simple rule: if the frame is sound, the sash is intact, and the only failures are hardware, we’ll tell you to repair. If the seal has failed, the frame is warping, or the window predates modern low-E coatings from the early 2000s, replacement usually makes more sense over a 10-year window of energy payback and reduced maintenance. And every repair we do carries a written guarantee in writing. If the repair fails, the second visit is free.
If you’re in Winter Park, Maitland, or anywhere in the greater Orlando area and you’re not sure whether you need repair or replacement, call us. We’ll send a technician, they’ll assess it in person, and you’ll get a straight answer and a written price either way.
What to Consider Before Choosing Casement Windows
Casements aren’t the default window style for every home. Here’s how we advise Orlando homeowners thinking through the decision:
Sealing performance vs. hurricane code
A closed casement compresses its weatherstripping uniformly, which means less air infiltration than a double-hung or slider. In Orlando, that means less humid air creeping into your home from June through September. If you’re also in or near a wind-borne debris zone, impact-rated casements from PGT and CGI meet Florida Building Code standards for both structural and missile impact. If you’re not in a wind-borne debris zone, standard low-E casements will still seal well and cut your cooling load.
Operability for older homeowners
The crank mechanism on a casement window means you aren’t lifting a sash. For many of our clients in their 70s and 80s, that’s the deciding factor. One hand turns the crank. The window opens outward. No lifting, no tugging, no straining. We bring samples with working hardware to the estimate visit so you can try before you commit.
Cleaning access
Casements hinge outward, which means you clean the outside from the inside. If the window opens into a tight spot, check for clearance before committing. A 24-inch casement swings 24 inches into the space outside the frame. We flag clearance issues during measurement, because a casement that can’t fully open behind a hedge or a fence is a casement that underperforms.
FAQs – Casement Windows
How much does it cost to replace a casement window in Orlando?
Casement window replacement in Orlando costs between $650 and $1,900 per window installed, with most Orlando homeowners spending $800 to $1,300 per window for a standard low-E vinyl or aluminum casement. Impact-rated options from brands like PGT and CGI push the price higher. Call (850) 613-9382 for a free written estimate based on your exact window openings, and we’ll quote you a firm price before any commitment.
Are casement windows better than double-hung windows for Florida homes?
Casement windows seal tighter than double-hung windows, which means less air leakage and better humidity control in Florida’s climate. They also catch side breezes better when open, which helps in Orlando neighborhoods with limited cross-ventilation. The trade-off is that they open outward, so they don’t work in every location. For Orlando homes, casements are often the best choice for windows you want to open regularly for airflow, while double-hungs work well in tighter spaces.
How long does casement window installation take?
Standard casement window installation takes two to four hours per window for a like-for-like replacement, including removing the old window, setting and sealing the new unit, and cleanup. A whole-house project of eight to twelve windows usually takes two to three days. If you’re replacing a standard casement with an impact-rated unit that requires a heavier frame, the opening may need modification, adding to the timeline. We’ll give you a schedule in writing before work starts.
Can you repair a casement window crank that won’t turn?
Yes. A casement crank that won’t turn is usually a stripped gear or a seized mechanism in the operator, and replacing the operator typically costs $150 to $300 in Orlando. If the sash itself has warped or the seals have failed, you’re likely looking at replacement rather than repair. We’ll inspect it and tell you the truth about which path makes sense for your window, and every repair carries a written guarantee.
