Choosing between upvc and wooden windows

Depending on the style of your home you may have the predicament of whether to go for wooden or uPVC windows. We come across this a lot with our customers and thought it may be useful to share our views and experiences.

uPVC windows are becoming increasingly popular and many people tend to go for uPVC windows over wooden windows for the following reasons:

uPVC double glazed windows are tougher than timber windows and they also cost a lot less to maintain. A simple spray of detergent or any cleaning product and a wipe with a clean piece of cloth can easily keep these windows clean and help them to last longer. Dirt and other filth that sticks itself to wooden windows can take some time to clean.

• You do not have to regularly paint your frames to get your desired color as you can buy uPVC double glazing windows in any color you choose. If you have wooden windows they need to be constantly repainted otherwise they will begin to rot.

• A major benefit of Upvc double glazed windows over wooden is their strength and durability. They are built to last and to stand up to any conditions. In fact it is very hard to damage uPVC windows, making them a great choice for any home.

• The security on many uPVC windows tends to be more robust than with wooden windows. This is obviously a very important factor when choosing your new windows as you want total peace of mind that your home will be safe and secure.

Many people with a traditional style house may not like the idea of having uPVC windows installed as it may not suit the house and they want to keep it looking as original as possible. However, you can get uPVC windows with a wood grain finish which gives the effect of timber windows, but the effectiveness of uPVC. To the untrained eye it is hard to notice the difference.
