Glass block window prices will vary based on whether you buy the blocks themselves or buy a pre-assembled unit, if you purchase standard blocks or high end blocks that have unique surface finishes or colors, as well as whether the installation is a simple replacement or needs to be custom sized, fitted and mortared in place. For additional info, see our page on glass block windows.
Glass Block Window Prices (per block price)
Entry Level Price: $5-$20
High End or Custom Blocks: $40-$60
Buying per block is more expensive than buying pre-assembled units. The more expsensive per block price is for specialty glass products that have unique finishes, patterns or colors.
Pre-Assembled Glass Block Window Cost (per block unit)
4 by 4 block unit: $60 – 90
8 by 8block unit: $150 – $200
Standard pre-assembled glass block units (2 x 4) (4 x 4) (6 x 6) will be less expensive than custom assembled units. Obviously the grade of blocks used in the units will also affect price.
Glass Block Window Cost For Installation
Expect to pay $100 to $800 for installation. The cost of glass block windows installation is very similar to normal window installation. If you are using pre-assembled units that simply pop into place then you can expect the lower end of the cost scale. If the project is custom sized or uses individual glass blocks, there will be additional contractor costs involved with placing and mortaring the glass block windows. Replacement windows have mounting flanges which helps create a tighter seal when placed in openings that aren’t perfectly sized – glass blocks need to be custom mortared into place.
