Before anyone thought of mixing chemicals in the lab to produce manmade materials like vinyl and fiberglass, window frames were simply made of wood. While not as common today, wood windows are still revered by many because they are classic, beautiful and timeless.<\/p>\n
There are two basic types of wood windows: solid wood and wood clad. Wood clad windows are wood on the side that faces the interior for aesthetics but a more weather-resistant material like vinyl or fiberglass on the outside. Fiberglass can be designed to mimic the look of wood; vinyl cannot. <\/p>\n

Wood windows are widely considered more attractive than their manmade material counterparts, and they\u2019re built to last for generations. However, they do require significant maintenance, including regular painting. <\/p>\n
Like vinyl and fiberglass, wood windows come in many different styles, including: <\/p>\n

Wood is the most expensive material for window frames, but the windows tend to last longer if they\u2019re properly maintained. Most wood windows cost $400-$1,200, but the price varies based on size and quality. <\/p>\n
Wood clad with vinyl on the exterior usually falls on the low end of that range – $650 or less<\/strong>. Wood clad with fiberglass ranges anywhere from about $500-$800<\/strong>. Solid wood is the most expensive, with custom windows reaching the thousands of dollars.<\/p>\n If you already have wood windows but they\u2019ve seen better days, you might not need to replace them entirely. Often, even wood windows that appear to be in terrible shape can be repaired or restored for about $200-$300 each.<\/strong><\/p>\n
