It is easy to see whether your windows are old and inefficient. Our simple 4 step guide will help you to make a
considered decision as to whether you need to replace your windows.
Colour Fading
UV rays from sunlight and the seasonal elements, which will accelerate colour fade over time.
The result - a lack of kerbside appeal. New windows have better protection against fading and are also available in wood grain finishes.
Ineffective Hinges & Locks
Worn out and corroded hardware make it much easier for burglars to enter your home through the windows. New windows have vastly improved locking mechanisms and hinges making window entry much more difficult.
Worn Out Gaskets & Weather Seals
First generation PVCu windows had the gaskets and weather seals applied separately to the profile.
The Result - gaskets work loose and shrink allowing heat to escape and cold air to come in. Modern windows are fitted with an "all in one" gasket that is attached to the profile during extrusion. Effectively the gasket is part of the frame and as a result will not shrink and will remain weather tight over the whole life of the window.
Misted Glazing
Look out for glazed units which ‘fog up’ they are not only unsightly but they are a major source of heat loss as the double glazed unit is ineffective. Modern DGU’s are manufactured to a much higher standard and will stop heat loss but at the same time achieve solar heat gain.
