PVC and uPVC are two vinyl materials used in the construction industry thanks to their durability and flexibility.

What are the common problems with uPVC Windows?

One of the most common problems with uPVC windows is rusting or damaged screws, hinges or locks. Leaving your windows open for a long time can corrode these materials and your windows may become stiff. Another common problem is when the small oblong drainage holes become blocked, meaning water cannot drain out and internal dampness develops. However, a quick fix to these problems is regularly cleaning and closing the windows to keep their metalwork good as new and drain holes clear. Although they are easy to clean and low-maintenance, unfortunately, they cannot be customised once installed. This means you can’t sand, paint or polish your windows after installation. We suggest you choose the style you know you’ll be happy with for a long time.

How strong are uPVC Windows?

UPVC is a robust, rigid material to choose for your windows. UPVC windows are very secure as they incorporate multi-locking systems all around the sash and frame providing a high level of security for your home. The secure frames and unique locking system provide the necessary strength to make it tough for anyone to break in and they are not easily messed with. Double-glazed uPVC windows are resistant to impact and it would take a real effort to break them. This is also true of triple-glazed uPVC windows, for added protection and thermal resistance.
