Put the paintbrush down

Gruelling weather conditions can really put your property through its paces and now that spring has sprung and we’ve dusted off the winter months it may be evident that the exterior of your home is looking less than fabulous. So, if your windows and doors have taken a battering this winter, we’ll explain why it may be a better option to invest in replacing them instead of just giving them a quick fix with a lick of paint.

It may be tempting, and seem like a more cost-effective option, to paint your windows and doors, but by doing so, you’re simply temporarily masking issues that will still be present in the long run. If you're thinking of selling your house, it’s worth noting that well-maintained windows and doors are a key decision factor for a house buyer. They’ll see it as a key feature that doesn’t require immediate financial outlay for replacement. Therefore, unless they are relatively new and painted with a seamless and professional finish it could devalue your home, plus deter potential buyers. If you’re staying in your property but you feel as though time hasn’t been kind to the exterior of your home, it’s worth considering that replacing them is a worthwhile investment to ensure your property looks fresh and flawless for years to come.

Harsh weather conditions can take their toll on your home, especially if your windows and doors are older and already looking a little worse for wear. However, choosing to paint them may bring more problems than actual benefits. Paint naturally doesn’t stick well to PVCu, therefore you would need to sand and prime before painting, which could significantly compromise the already dubious state of your windows and doors by affecting their structural integrity. So, why not put down the paint brush and take a closer look at the benefits of the composite doors and PVCu windows we offer…
