uPVC Windows Renovation & repair


uPVC Problems
Modern uPVC windows are made of insulated glazed units (single, double, or triple), plastic frame, contact trims and rubber seals.

Throughout its life windows get affected by mold and moss which penetrates thru rubber seals and makes its way to the internal part of the window. After penetrating, window lose it's ability to withstand outdoor elements and keep temperature inside your home.
This will cause a number of issues such as:


- poor termal performance (window is no longer able to hold high termperature resistance);
- poor acoustic performance (noticeable difference in noise level from outdoor environment);
- visible mold on the outside surface of the frame / condensation between frame and walls;
- smell and high humidity level;
