uPVC, aluminium or timber window frames: how to compare them
Compare frame material, maintenance, sightlines and product availability before selecting new windows.
Compare the actual products offered for your property. uPVC is currently listed by the group; confirm availability and specification before treating aluminium or solid timber as quotation options.
Compare material and maintenance
Ask what the frame is made from and which cleaning, finish and maintenance instructions apply. Woodgrain is a surface appearance and does not mean the frame is solid timber.
Products within one material category can differ. Use manufacturer information rather than assuming every uPVC, aluminium or timber frame has the same performance.
Review sightlines and opening choices
Frame depth, opening mechanism, glass area and bar pattern all affect appearance. Compare product drawings for each material on the same window schedule.
Ask which colours and opening styles are available for each range and whether any choices change lead time, hardware or warranty.
Confirm the offered range and written specification
The group advertises replacement uPVC windows, but a comparison article does not confirm that every material is available. Ask the team what it can supply and fit for your property.
Request material, glazing, finish, installation and aftercare details in writing. Do not assume a repair service for a material means the company supplies new windows in it.
