Double glazed windows in Milton Keynes

Nine styles, in uPVC and aluminium. The differences that matter are how it looks from the street, how it opens, and how slim the frame is. Pick the one that sounds like your house and we will confirm the specification at survey.

The choice that matters

Both are A+ rated. The difference is the frame.

These are the two systems we fit, and we are glad to fit either. uPVC reaches the lower U-value and comes in the widest range of styles and shapes. Aluminium holds the slimmest frame, so more of the opening is glass, in any RAL colour you name. Both are A+ rated, both are made to measure, and both will outlast the mortgage. The figures below are the ones that actually separate them.

Before you ask

If you want a figure before you speak to anyone: Double glazing costs Aluminium window prices Sash window prices

Which of these has the lower U-value?

uPVC, at 0.95 W/m²K against 1.0 for aluminium. The gap comes from the frame rather than the glass, and both are A+ rated and comfortably inside what a replacement window has to reach. It is a small enough difference that most people choose on how the window looks instead.

Can I have one colour outside and another inside?

Yes, in both materials. On uPVC the colour is a foil bonded to the profile, on aluminium it is a powder coat, so a dual finish means two separate treatments rather than one.

How secure are they?

The uPVC range is PAS 24 accredited, which is the enhanced security standard, with multi-point locking as standard. We confirm the exact hardware at survey against where the window is and what it opens onto.

What does the guarantee cover?

Ten years on a new window installation. Repairs, replacement glass on its own, roofline, integral blinds and pet flaps sit outside it. We would rather say that here than leave it in the small print.
