Window, door & balcony installation

Window, door and balcony installation in the Philippines

Updated 4 November 2026

A replacement window fitted in the Philippines costs about ₱5,150 to ₱8,400 each, according to sellers' websites, November 2026. Aluminium glass doors are listed at ₱6,790 per square metre for materials alone, so installation labour comes on top. For prices on your own openings, the quickest route is a request on BlaBlaPrice.

Permits and deposits to check

The Quezon City building official's office states that construction permits must be secured before construction, alteration or repair work, so ask your installer who files the application and whether the quote includes it. In condominiums, the building management often charges a work permit fee and a refundable security deposit, and many quotes leave both out, so add them before comparing offers. If a door is part of an exit route, the National Building Code (Presidential Decree No. 1096) requires every required exit doorway to take a door at least 900 millimetres wide.

Timing in a tropical climate

The Philippines has a tropical climate, hot all year with wet and dry seasons instead of winter and summer, so rain, not cold, sets the timing. Sealant and glass fitting go better on dry days, so agree a start date with a dry spell in mind and a fallback date for rain. Ask the installer how they protect the opening if a shower comes during the work.

How the work is priced

Window prices are quoted per unit, and one listing includes old frame removal, installation, sealant and testing. Door materials are quoted per square metre, and a materials-only price leaves installation labour out, so compare offers line by line. Measure in millimetres for windows and doors, and in metres for balcony openings. Say which city you are in (Manila, Quezon City, Cebu City, Davao City or Makati) so the seller can confirm they reach your site.

What to put in your request

Describe the work in your own words in the chat. Useful details are how many windows, doors or balcony openings you need, their width and height, the frame material and glass you want, whether you or the seller buys the products, whether old frames must come out, your site address, your deadline and your budget. A photo of each opening helps the seller understand the job.

On BlaBlaPrice, describing the job is free for buyers. The AI reads your request, asks for missing details and looks through sellers' websites and price lists in the Philippines, then shows the prices and businesses it found. Registered sellers reply in the chat with their own price, terms and delivery, and your contact details stay hidden until you decide whom to contact.
