Help with choosing replacement windows

3 years ago

I am planning to replace my UPVC double glazing with aluminium. Should I stick with white or go for colour, such as grey? If I go for colour, should I match my fascias, drain pipes etc? is the current trend for greys likely to look dated in a few years? Thanks

I think the colour of the bricks would look good with a darker contrast, therefore go with grey. I know people often wonder if it’s here today gone tomorrow but it’s been in fashion for several years now and more people seem to be having them.

Will you be having different size windows?

If not - and they‘re in good condition - I was wondering if it’s an idea to have your current windows (spray) painted.

My house 1970s house has quite wide (2.35m) windows that I struggle to know what to do with. I love the look of plantation blinds but it would be over £1000 to do the two front windows and that’s from a DIY website. I looked at wooden Venetians but they don’t sell them in the width I want. Would it be weird to have two side-by-side? My son wants a plain roller blind for his window but I sort of like the idea of his window matching the one below as they are the only two windows at the front of the house. The downstairs front window really needs a bit of privacy as lots of people walk past every day but it’s not an issue upstairs as there is only a high school across the road. At the moment the front and rear living room windows have shabby old vertical blinds which I know many people hate. However, they are good for privacy and filtering light, which is particularly important as the back of the living room has a large sliding patio door. Picture with ladder shows new upstairs window going in. The ground floor window was also replaced with one made up of 8 panes.

When was your house built? Chartwell Green is a lovely shade. I think because the brick is dark I would choose white windows or a pale taupe/cream. Dark grey windows can, I feel, look really grim with dark or red brick. It only seems to look good with a pale render. I think this picture shows how lovely Chartwell is with white. Another popular shade is Agate grey which is grey with a tiny hint of green, second pic.

Thank you for your suggestions. The windows aren’t too bad, so I will consider spray paint options in the mix also. Cheers.
