Renovating Window Frames

3 years ago

Purchased a house recently. It needs a bit of a TLC. This is my first time; so looking for general advice. The house has aluminium double glazing. Although the windows are in good nick, the wooden frames are worn out. Spoke to some builders who advised I will need to replace the double glazing if I want to replace the frames. Looking for guidance and solutions. Pictures attached below.

Replacing the whole window, frame and cill would be the easiest solution.

The frames look pretty bad. I think replacing all of the windows as Sarah suggests is essential. New windows have good insulation and you will feel a huge improvement.

Wow you really seems to have made a choice of wooden flooring along with the furniture displayed. But do take proper care of them else pest or termites can ruin all your hard work.

Hi I have a dilemma... For a new build. I love sleek and modern and going for a high gloss kitchen with creams and nudes... From front door through to kitchen I want tiles I am thinking oak wooden floors so my question... What color interior doors do I choose? I love the look of the 2 panel white shaker door but are they a nightmare with kids and traffic and keeping clean? Also what color window frames would you suggest for this? Thanks a million

1980s bungalow renovation ideas

We have a very 1980s bungalow. We are looking to update the exterior but I’m at a loss as to what will look best. Really want to plaster over the brick. The windows and sliding door definitely date the property. Should we change the windows and door (maybe add a porch)? What style windows and doors? Modern windows and add on a brick porch or sash windows with Georgian style door? Or go contemporary with dark paint and maybe some sort of wooden feature? Sorry, not very technical with the terms!! Open to all suggestions! Thanks!

Have a brows on YouTube re doing projects yourself, access recycling websites that may have some end of stock windows that may fit as this looks like a side window it won’t need to match the front .. if you can get a window at reduced price and feel replacing is outside your remit, having a glazier refit new window should be far more cost effective.. good luck whatever you do and congratulations 👏🏽 on our new home, I am questing you will be having some exciting times and fun projects to plan

Thanks everyone for Reponses. Feedback is much appreciated. Going to have a browse now, and see what's available. Got a glazing company to come and give a quote.
