About Windows & Doors
Door material pros and cons
Composite doors combine a timber core with a glass-reinforced plastic skin and resist warping. Solid timber looks great but swells in wet seasons. uPVC doors stay stable but can fade after 10 years of strong sun. Steel doors give the best security but need a thermal break to stop cold transfer.
Picking the right window frame
Frames come in uPVC, aluminium, timber, or composite. uPVC needs little care and holds heat well. Aluminium is slimmer but adds thermal breaks to fight condensation. Timber looks classic but asks for repainting every 6 to 8 years. Ask the fitter which profile rating matches your wall and local weather.
Damp around frames and where it hides
Damp patches near the head or sill often point to a broken bridge in the frame, not the wall. Run your hand along the reveal and feel for cold spots. Ask the fitter to drill a small inspection hole in the frame cavity and confirm the insulation is continuous.
U-value and what it means for your bill
The U-value measures heat loss through the whole unit, frame plus glass. Lower numbers mean better insulation. A standard double-glazed unit sits around 1.4, while better options drop to 1.0 or below. Ask the supplier for the certified U-value for the exact frame and glass combination you order.
What changes the final price
Size, frame material, and glass rating drive most of the cost. Colour foil, woodgrain finish, or dual-colour frames raise the bill. Bay or shaped windows cost more because templates are custom. Removal of asbestos-lined sills, scaffolding, and skip hire add separate line items to the quote.
How long installation takes
A standard casement window swap takes 1 to 2 hours per unit. A full house of 8 to 10 windows usually finishes in 2 days. Front doors take 3 to 5 hours, French doors up to a full day. Rendering, plaster touch-ups, or structural repairs add extra time to the schedule.
Making good the plaster after fitting
New frames often leave a 10 to 20 mm gap around the perimeter that needs filling. Ask whether the quote includes making good the plaster or just the foam and silicone seal. Photograph the wall before work starts so any cracks afterwards are easy to pin on the fitter.
Ironmongery that survives daily use
Hinges, handles and multi-point locks carry the weight of the door every day. Stainless steel or marine-grade hinges resist rust near coastal air. Ask how many locking points the strip has, and check that cylinders carry a current security rating rather than a brand logo alone.
Guarantees and paperwork to keep
Ask for a written warranty covering frames, glass units, and hardware separately. Sealed glass units often carry a 10-year fog-free guarantee. Installation labour should be warranted for at least 2 years. Keep the FENSA or equivalent certificate for insurance and future property sales.
Security fittings to look for
Windows should carry PAS 24 or Secured by Design certification. Multi-point locking on doors needs hooks at the top and bottom, not just a centre latch. Ask for 3-star euro cylinders, anti-snap barrels, and hinge bolts on the inside frame. A 1-star cylinder is too easy to bypass.
