Replacement Windows in Ottawa
Ottawa has one of the coldest winter climates of any major Canadian city, and windows are the weakest thermal link in most walls. If your windows in Ottawa are drafty, fog up between the panes, ice over in January or drive up your heating bills, it is time to consider replacement. New, airtight European windows do more than improve comfort — they protect your home, cut outside noise, and lower what you spend heating through a long Ottawa winter.
Eurostar Windows & Doors brings more than 30 years of European window expertise to Ottawa homeowners. From century homes in the Glebe and Old Ottawa South to newer builds in Kanata, Barrhaven and Orléans, we deliver precise, clean window replacement in Ottawa with units engineered specifically for our climate — and we serve the region in both English and French.
As a Greater Ottawa Home Builders' Association (GOHBA) member with a perfect 5.0 rating from 60+ verified reviews, our reputation across the National Capital Region is built on doing the job right the first time.

Window Styles We Install Across Ottawa
Because every opening and orientation is different, we install the full range of European window styles and match the right one to each opening rather than forcing a single solution on your whole home:
- Tilt-and-turn — the European standard: swing in to clean, tilt in for secure winter ventilation.
- Casement — airtight four-sided seal and full ventilation, our most efficient operating style.
- Awning — hinged at the top to shed rain while letting fresh air in.
- Slider & single/double hung — classic, easy-to-use styles that suit many Ottawa facades.
- Fixed picture & slim-frame — maximum glass and light for unobstructed views.
Serving Every Ottawa Community
Ottawa is a greenfield market for European windows, and we are actively expanding across the National Capital Region. Whether you are in the urban core or the growing suburbs, our certified installers bring the same standard to every home:
Signs It's Time to Replace Your Ottawa Windows
A few clear signals tell most Ottawa homeowners it is time: visible fog or moisture trapped between the panes (a failed seal), drafts you can feel with the window closed, frost on the interior glass in deep cold, frames that are cracked or painted shut, rising heating bills, and outside noise that seems worse each year. Windows 20 years or older, or builder-grade from the start, rarely justify repeated repairs — the money is better invested in modern, warrantied units that pay you back every winter.

What Replacement Windows Cost in Ottawa
Window pricing varies widely because “a window” can mean anything from a basic vinyl unit to a triple-glazed European tilt-and-turn system. As a general 2026 guide for supplied-and-installed windows in Ottawa:
| Window type | Typical installed range (per window) | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Standard vinyl double-glazed | $650 – $950 | Budget replacements, sheltered openings |
| Energy Star casement / awning | $900 – $1,400 | Efficiency, tight seal, ventilation |
| European tilt-and-turn (triple) | $1,200 – $1,900 | Best comfort, quiet and winter warmth |
A typical 10–15 window Ottawa home commonly falls between $12,000 and $24,000 installed. Full-frame installation, which air-seals the whole opening, costs more than a retrofit insert but is often where the real comfort and energy savings come from. We provide a free, itemized in-home quote so your exact price is clear.
