Designers have used acrylic glass block for years because it creates a striking focal point while providing a light airy feel to a room. Remodeling contractors choose block windows to replace old windows, especially where you want to bring daylight into a room like a kitchen; but also maintain privacy. While many acrylic block windows are solid, an opening block window adds more to a room by providing ventilation. An opening window is a solution in many old bathrooms when a rotted windowsill and framing is beyond repair.
A window installer will charge $2,026, which includes the labor and material, to replace a window with a new 48-inch-by-48-inch acrylic block unit. A homeowner with experience in carpentry can do the job for $1,050, the price of the unit. But this job requires serious carpentry skills — like cutting an opening in a wall — and construction knowledge and the tools to do the job. If you have any reservations, this job is best left to a professional.
