The county's housing stock — slate-and-stone cottages and fell-side farmhouses — wind-load ratings and heritage detailing both matter here — shapes our recommendations here more than any brochure could.
Frames are thermally broken aluminium, glazing is 28mm argon-filled with self-clean and solar options, and everything is made to measure. Buy supply-only with kerbside delivery, or have our fitters handle the lot under a written workmanship guarantee.
Typically 25–40% on a like-for-like size, depending on spec. On a standard kitchen-extension lantern that's a saving worth having if the slimmer aluminium bars aren't a priority.
Not in current systems — anthracite foil finishes and improved proportions have closed much of the visual gap. At larger sizes aluminium still wins on slimness, which is why we'll show you both.
Quality modern uPVC carries UV stabilisation and colourfast foils with long guarantees. The yellowing associated with older white plastic belongs to a previous generation of material.
With reinforced ridges, uPVC handles standard domestic sizes comfortably. For very large spans we'd steer you to aluminium, where the engineering headroom is greater.
Send the form and we’ll come back with honest prices — supply-only or installed — with a response within 1 working hour.
