New & Replacement uPVC Windows
uPVC windows are one of the best installed double glazing windows in Glasgow and Scotland - but not all uPVC windows are the same. There can be huge differences in quality, features, and performance among uPVC window products offered by different manufacturers and installers.
As a homeowner, how do you know which type of uPVC window to get - and what you’re being quoted for?
With Wholehearted Windows and Doors, we only use what we believe are the highest quality materials in all doors and windows installations. We only supply fully reinforced window frames that use galvanised iron, which means that they’ll always retain their shape and size, and stand up against the heavy winds and rain that we love so much in Scotland.
uPVC windows and doors can also be installed in a wide range of colours and finishes, ensuring that they can be customised to suit any property style, both modern and traditional.
If you’re confused about if you should choose standard reinforced uPVC windows or fully reinforced UPVC windows, get in touch - we’ll explain why we recommend installing fully reinforced, high quality, energy efficient uPVC windows to ensure your home is both secure and weatherproof for years to come.
What are the benefits of uPVC windows for your home?
As a homeowner, if you are looking for double glazed windows that have superior insulation, low maintenance, and enhanced security, uPVC windows are a cost-effective option.
What type of uPVC windows would be best for your home?
uPVC windows come with lots of options, and we’d love to talk more about what options might suit you best during a no-obligation consultation.
Have you considered:
Flush fit windows offer a sleek and modern appearance, sitting flush with the frame for a seamless look. They provide excellent insulation and security while adding a contemporary touch to any home. (We’d love to talk through how we advise that the handles be positioned - just ask!)
Reversible windows are designed to rotate fully, making them easy to clean from the inside. Ideal for upper floors or hard-to-reach areas, as well as general use, reversible windows offer convenience and functionality without compromising on style.
Tilt and turn windows do what it says on the tin: they tilt inwards for ventilation or open fully like a casement window for easy cleaning and access. Tilt and turn windows can also provide versatility, energy efficiency, and enhanced security features.
Casement windows are hinged at the side and open outward. They offer excellent ventilation and can be customised with various styles and configurations to suit your home’s specific design, to ensure you’re not annoyed for years to come by the window opening in the wrong direction - we’ll ensure that casement windows have the right fit for you.
Looking to increase natural light inside your home? Consider creating a bay window as an architectural point of interest! Bay windows protrude from the exterior of the home, creating a cosy alcove or seating area inside while providing expansive views of the outdoors.
Awning windows are hinged at the top and open outward from the bottom, allowing for ventilation even during light rain. They are ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, and other areas where privacy and airflow are essential.
Dormer windows are typically installed on the sloping roof of a house, adding both aesthetic appeal and functionality to attic or loft spaces. They provide additional headroom, natural light, and ventilation.
You may also be interested in options for fixed screen windows - separately or together with other types of windows in your home in Glasgow. Fixed screens are stationary panels that are installed alongside windows to provide insect protection while still allowing airflow. They are commonly used in combination with casement or awning windows to keep pests out while enjoying fresh air.
What do uPVC windows cost?
You’ve heard it before: the average cost of uPVC windows in Scotland can vary depending on several factors, including the number of windows you want, size of the windows, the style and design you choose such as sash uPVC windows, whether you plan to put up blinds or not, any additional features you may want, and of course, the supplier or installer. Additionally, factors such as installation fees, warranties, and any additional services offered may also influence the overall cost.
So what should you budget for double glazing in your home in Scotland? According to Checkatrade, on average, double glazed uPVC windows in Scotland can cost anywhere from £300 to £5,000+ per window. The average cost of a double glazing for a 3-bed house is around £5,000 to £7,000.
