Dual Colour Options
One of the most exciting developments in uPVC window colours is the ability to choose different colours for the interior and exterior of your windows. This dual colour option allows you to match your home’s exterior while complementing your interior decor.
For example, you might choose a classic cream colour for the exterior to match your home’s traditional facade, while opting for a crisp white interior to brighten your rooms.
Factors to Consider When Choosing uPVC Window Colours
When selecting colours for your uPVC windows, keep these factors in mind:
- Architectural Style: Choose colours that complement your home’s overall style and era.
- Neighbourhood Context: Consider how your chosen colour will fit with neighbouring properties.
- Longevity: While bold colours can be striking, neutral tones tend to have more staying power and broader appeal.
- Energy Efficiency: Darker colours absorb more heat, which can affect your home’s thermal performance.
- Maintenance: Lighter colours may show dirt less readily than darker shades.
- Resale Value: If you’re planning to sell in the future, more neutral colours may appeal to a broader range of buyers.
The Colour Application Process
uPVC windows are coloured using one of two main methods:
- Foil Lamination: A coloured foil is heat-bonded to the uPVC profile, creating a durable, long-lasting finish.
- Spray Painting: Specially formulated paints are applied to the uPVC, offering more colour flexibility but potentially less durability than foil finishes.
Caring for Coloured uPVC Windows
Coloured uPVC windows are generally as low-maintenance as their white counterparts. Regular cleaning with mild soap and water is usually sufficient to keep them looking their best. Avoid abrasive cleaners or materials that could damage the colour finish.
Making Your Decision
With so many colour options available, choosing the right shade for your uPVC windows can seem overwhelming. Consider requesting colour samples from Astraframe to see how different options look in various lighting conditions at your home.
Remember, your windows are a long-term investment in your home’s appearance and functionality. Take your time to explore different colour options and choose a shade that you’ll be happy with for years to come.
By embracing the wide world of uPVC window colours, you can enhance your home’s curb appeal, express your personal style, and create a cohesive look that ties together your property’s interior and exterior design. Whether you opt for classic white, a warm woodgrain, or a bold contemporary hue, coloured uPVC windows from Astraframe offer an exciting opportunity to make your home truly your own.
