Double Glazed Windows

Windows to match your home’s aesthetic in West Yorkshire

At Sheffield Double Glazing Company, we install a wide variety of windows for West Yorkshire homeowners.

Whether you’d prefer a high performing and cost-effective uPVC window upgrade or a stylish set of aluminium windows, we’ve got you covered from start to finish. All our windows are of the highest standard, professionally installed, and come with a comprehensive 10-year guarantee to protect your investment from any unforeseen circumstances.

Which is better uPVC or Aluminium Windows?

Both uPVC and aluminium frames are great options when replacing your existing windows. They both come in a range of colours and can be designed to perfectly harmonise with your home; however, they do slightly differ.

Aluminium and uPVC windows are incredibly secure and energy-efficient, yet if you are looking for a low maintenance option, then uPVC is a great choice. Though aluminium windows are also low maintenance, they will require more upkeep in comparison to uPVC. They both can withstand extreme weather and we utilise a powder coat finish on our aluminium to ensure they are completely weatherproof.

So, if you really want your windows to endure the harshest coastal weather, the most reliable window material is aluminium. Another factor that differentiates the two materials is their life span. uPVC windows are expected to last around 25-30 years whereas aluminium windows can last up to 40 years!

Coloured uPVC and aluminium windows

Our premium windows come in a plethora of colours, from contemporary tones such as black and anthracite grey to classical hues such as Chartwell Green and vintage cream, which means you can design your windows to seamlessly blend with your exterior or use them to create a striking feature on your façade. We even offer authentic woodgrain textures such as Irish Oak, Golden Oak, and Rosewood. Our timber effect windows have all the intricate details of original wood windows and can be the finishing touch to your home.

uPVC Windows

For our range of uPVC windows we use a foil finish to give the colour and texture of an authentic woodgrain. The foil is applied via a heat bonding process which creates a virtually resilient, durable, long-lasting finish.

Aluminium windows

Aluminium coloured windows use a technique called Powder Coating. During the powder coating process the aluminium frames will have an electrical charge applied to them and the powder will be sprayed onto the aluminium.  This charge helps the powder adhere to the aluminium, which provides a long-lasting attractive finish.

Is it worth replacing double glazing?

It’s always worth replacing your double glazed windows if:

• They are over 20 years old
• They are letting condensation in between the glass panes – condensation can lead to areas of damp to appear and mould to grow if left untreated. This therefore does not only have the potential to be a bad thing for your home, but your health as well.
• You are getting large draughts from the windows – look at any failed seals, signs of damage, mould, rotted wood and make sure that your windows are properly insulated.

Old double glazed windows will not benefit from the new security and thermal efficiency technology incorporated into modern double glazing. Replacing draughty, old or condensing double glazing will save you money on energy bills in the long run and make life more comfortable.
