Can AluRestore be used for retro fitted double glazed joinery?
Yes. Choose any powder coat colours you want for the retrofits and we will complete the rest of the frames to match. (It is suggested to seek our advice on colours such as the “Metropolitan” or metallic range before retro fitting double glazing).
Can I get repairs done at the same time?
Yes. AluRestore applicators can replace catches, stays and handles to your requirements. No need to engage 2 tradesmen – AluRestore can look after it all for you.
Does AluRestore damage the rubber seals?
No. Everything is left intact and clean. But if the glazing rubbers have shrunk or gone hard we will replace them with our new window seal before recoating. If changing the colour all butterfly frame seals are removed and replaced after re-coating is completed.
Is it going to cost more to change the colour?
No. Basically any standard powder coat colour can be applied. This means that the old brown or bronze can be updated to the latest fashion colours adding street appeal to your house.
How durable is AluRestore?
Our warranty covers 10 years. Existing projects over the last 23 years are still in excellent condition. Our coatings are easily maintained with a light wash.
How long will it take?
An average 3 bedroom home may take a week or 2 for just the exterior and more if the interior is changing colour as well. With minimum fuss and little disturbance to the occupants of the house we will adjust our schedule to fit around you.
How does it compare to replacement of the joinery?
The cost of AluRestore is a fraction of the cost of full replacement. The additional benefit is there is no disruption to the integrity of the house with the damage to window reveals and paintwork etc that removal may cause. Cost savings increase with constructions types such as rendered (plastered) surfaces.
