Just cracked my living room window—curious what others paid to fix theirs?

Good call on painter's tape—total lifesaver for clean edges. Learned that after my kitchen backsplash fiasco... silicone everywhere, hours scraping it off. For the window, I skipped DIY and called around; quotes ranged from $150-$300 depending on glass size and labor. Ended up paying $180 for double-pane replacement. Worth it to avoid the headache, honestly. But props to you for sticking with DIY—I admire your patience!
