The 5 best window replacement services in Canberra that are trusted by locals By Mia Hayes
It was only after a cold draft started sneaking through our living room that I realised we needed to replace our decades-old windows. That kicked off my search for the best window replacement services in Canberra.
I wasn’t just looking for someone to fix a pane; I wanted trusted professionals who could offer energy-efficient upgrades, solid warranties, and honest advice.
So, after scouring online reviews, testing customer service responses, and getting a few quotes myself, I’ve put together this list to help others make informed choices.
Whether your windows are fogged up or just outdated, these companies are definitely worth a look.
How much does window replacement cost in Canberra?
Replacing windows in Canberra generally costs between $250 and $900 per window, with custom installations and double-glazed options often ranging between $1,000 and $2,500. Factors affecting the price include size, material, glazing, and labor.
1. Value Glass Canberra

Address: 60-62 Oatley Court, Belconnen
Phone: (02) 6189 3773
Business hours: Open 24/7
If you’ve got a smashed window at 2 AM, Value Glass Canberra is your best bet. These guys operate round-the-clock, and they mean it — no auto-replies or scheduling delays.
What impressed me most was how fast they responded when I tested their emergency line: a real human picked up and gave clear guidance within minutes.
Beyond emergency repairs, they also offer window replacements for homes and businesses, including energy-efficient and laminated options. They’ve been around since the early ‘90s, and their reputation for fast, fuss-free service holds strong.
However, they don’t offer as many style customisations, and you’ll need to call to get a quote because they don’t have an online cost estimator available.
Excellently and quickly did the job
“Fantastic service. Direct text messages within 24 hrs of submitting inquiry to set up a quote. Arranged with cheerfulness and efficiency. Excellent tradesman arrived a little early and quickly did the job. Installed large pane of laminated glass with no fuss, despite some trickiness. He was very considerate of our crazy puppy who greeted him very affectionately before I could contain him. And very good value. Couldn’t ask for better. Thanks Value Glass.”

Excellent, honest, and quality service
“They provided us with excellent, honest, and quality service. The team was highly professional and very prompt, which we greatly appreciated. Pete and Terry turned up on time and helped us repair our shower glass. They were both very friendly and helpful, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. We must say, they and the company deserve a solid 5-star rating indeed. We highly recommend Value Glass to anyone in need of their services.”

2. Discount Glass Canberra

Address: 4 Purdue St, Belconnen
Phone: 6253 1099 / 6188 4454
Business hours: Monday to Friday, 7:30 am – 4:30 pm
True to their name, Discount Glass Canberra is the go-to for budget-conscious homeowners and small businesses who still want solid quality. The company provides both residential and commercial window replacements, offering float glass, laminated, and double-glazed options.
When I reached out for a quote, their team was refreshingly straightforward. They didn’t push for any unnecessary upgrades or confuse me with technical jargon.
They listened, gave straightforward suggestions, and explained the difference between their glass types in plain English. They also helped me match the best option to my space and usage.
The only downside is that they don’t operate on weekends, and their catalogue is limited to standard glass types without much in terms of premium decorative styles. If you’re after custom finishes or high-end decorative glass, you may need to look elsewhere.
Great price, great service
“The team at Discount Glass is amazing. I can’t thank them enough for their responsiveness and care during our emergency window situation. Thank you! The team has also did a fantastic job installing a pet door in one of our windows. Great price, great service. A fantastic locally owned business. 5 stars. ⭐”

Professional, pleasant, and considerate customer service
“Adrian replaced a couple of windows in our home. He was very professional and pleasant, and the entire process—from the initial estimate to today’s completion—was extremely smooth. We’re completely satisfied with everything. Our home has a no-shoes policy, and we were especially impressed by his thoughtful attention to that detail. We’ve had many contractors come into our home over the years, but I believe Adrian is the first to show such a high level of consideration. Thoroughly recommend Adrian and Discount Glass – if we ever have any issues with our windows again, we’d happily use them again.”

3. Architech Windows

Address: 38 Paterson Parade, Queanbeyan
Phone: 02 6284 3288
Business hours:
- Monday to Friday, 9:00 am – 5:00 pm
- Saturday to Sunday, By appointment
Architech Windows is a bit of a hidden gem for those after sleek, modern designs paired with energy performance. They specialise in architectural aluminium windows and doors, including thermally broken frames and double glazing for better energy efficiency.
Their products are engineered to meet high design standards and are often used in luxury builds and high-end renovations.
I loved how tailored their approach was. Someone from their team offered a free site inspection and explained how different frame profiles could complement my home’s design. It didn’t feel like a sales pitch but more like a design collaboration.
They cater mostly to high-end homes and renovations, and while the quality is excellent, expect higher prices and fewer options for timber window frames, since their core expertise lies in aluminium systems.
Top-quality windows installed
“Thank you, Jason, Karen and the Installation Team, so much for the professional installation of our beautiful windows. We could not be happier. Jason worked after hours to get all the measurements passed on, while Karen patiently and professionally answered all our inquiries. The installation of all our windows and doors (10 all up) has been done efficiently and skillfully. The staff left the building site neat and tidy, and all rubbish has been removed. We are very happy with the whole process and the top quality of our new windows installed by Architech Windows.”

Outstanding customer service even after several years
“This is a company that you can trust to stand by their products for the long run. We had ArchiTech fit our triple-glazed windows almost seven years ago, and we couldn’t be happier with their products or the work they did. Recently, one of the locking window handles developed a problem, which I reckoned was due to ‘fair wear and tear’, so I approached ArchiTech again to purchase a replacement. They immediately provided me with a replacement at no charge – after seven years! This is outstanding customer service in this day and age. I cannot recommend the company and their products highly enough – well done and thank you again. I would recommend ArchiTech without hesitation as a reliable company to do business with.”

4. Windotek

Address: 13 Bedford St, Queanbeyan
Phone: 0451 727 517
Business hours: Monday to Friday, 8:00 am – 5:00 pm
What sets Windotek apart is its strong focus on uPVC double-glazed windows. If insulation and noise reduction are high on your list, this Canberra-based team really delivers.
Unlike providers that spread their services thin, Windotek specialises in this window type using Australian-made, energy-rated profiles tailored for local conditions.
They offer both retrofit installation for older homes and new-build options, with every unit custom-made to fit.
When I chatted with one of their team members, they clearly knew their stuff. They took time to explain how their window systems block heat and sound, how UV protection works, and even demonstrated their locking mechanisms for added security, which is impressive.
Just note that they don’t offer weekend consultations, which may be inconvenient for some. Also, their modern designs may not be suitable for heritage restorations.
Clean, quick, and high-quality job
“Yu Tee and the team have done an amazing job installing new double-glazed windows in our brick home. He has been responsive on emails throughout the process, and the team did a great high quality job cleaning up after themselves at the end of every day. They replaced 16 windows and doors all completed on time in 4 day. Thanks again Windotek team!!”
– Emma Stuart, Google Review
Professional and great customer service
“Just had 9 old rusty steel windows fitted with double glazed uPVC over 3 days with Windotek.
Yu Tee is very professional, always available and happy to answer any of my questions. He gave me some ideas and suggestions which I went along with no regrets. The installers were friendly and arrived on time and worked nonstop until finished. They did an excellent job and made sure the windows were working properly before they left. No mess and a full clean up to the end. The windows looked amazing. Windotek was recommended by my colleague and would highly recommend Windotek to my family and friends.
Thank you, Yu Tee and your team.”

5. Performance Windows & Doors

Address: 58 Townsville Street, Fyshwick
Phone: 02 622 62881
Business hours:
- Monday to Thursday, 9:00 am – 3:30 pm
- Friday, 9:00 am – 12:00 pm
Performance Windows & Doors is ideal for homeowners seeking high-performance windows with sophisticated design.
The company specialises in both thermally broken aluminium, which is great for reducing heat transfer, and multi-chambered uPVC windows, which offer strong insulation and durability.
Along with a sleek European-inspired design, their products are suited for contemporary and energy-efficient homes.
I appreciated the attention to detail during the consultation. They asked about the home’s orientation, ventilation needs, and even my preferences for handle styles.
Unlike others that provide a quick over-the-phone quote, Performance Windows & Doors requires a site visit and detailed measurements before issuing a formal, written quote. While this adds a step, it ensures accuracy and transparency.
However, their lead times for custom orders can be longer than average. The price point may also be a bit steep for budget-conscious clients.
Excellent attention to detail
“Performance Windows did a brilliant job on our house. They replaced all windows and sliding doors. They look great! They showed excellent attention to detail and made sure they left the place tidy at the end.”
– Jen Ferris, Google Review
Smooth from start to finish
“Recently replaced all the windows in my house with double-glazed windows including a sliding door. Everything from measure to install went smoothly, and the Performance staff were a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend.”
