Aluminium Windows across Devon
slim powder coated frames that carry big glass without heavy sightlines. Surveyed free, priced per opening, guaranteed for 10 years.
We supply and fit aluminium windows throughout Devon, from Exeter and Newton Abbot out to the coast and the market towns. An aluminium window is a thermally broken extrusion: two aluminium shells separated by a polyamide bar that stops the outer skin conducting cold straight through to the room. The strength of the metal is what lets the frame stay narrow while still holding a heavy sealed unit.
Every quote is surveyed on site, priced per opening in writing and covered by a 10 year guarantee. If you would like the local detail for your own town, the service pages cover the housing stock, the council and the exposure in each area.
What aluminium windows are, in plain terms
An aluminium window is a thermally broken extrusion: two aluminium shells separated by a polyamide bar that stops the outer skin conducting cold straight through to the room. The strength of the metal is what lets the frame stay narrow while still holding a heavy sealed unit.
That strength is the whole reason people choose it. A structural opening that would need a chunky mullion in another material can often be carried on a single slim frame, so the view stays open and the glass line dominates rather than the frame.
The specification points that decide the price
Quotes for aluminium windows vary widely because the specification varies widely. Ask for these lines in writing and two quotes become comparable.
- Polyamide thermal break of at least 24mm on habitable rooms
- Marine grade polyester powder coating for exposed and coastal elevations
- RAL colour matched inside and out, or dual colour where the interior needs to differ
- Concealed or minimal sightline hardware so the slim look is not undone by the handle
- Warm edge spacer units rather than aluminium spacer bars
Where aluminium windows are the wrong choice
We fit several window types, so we have no reason to push one. These are the cases where we would steer you elsewhere.
- On a small cottage opening the crisp modern line can read wrong for the building
- Conservation officers rarely accept it on a period frontage where timber was original
- It sits above uPVC on price for the same opening size
How we work
Every job starts with a free survey at your property. We measure each opening, look at the reveal, the drainage and the hardware, and tell you where a repair or an on site respray would serve you better than a replacement.
Pricing is per opening and in writing, dates are agreed before any money changes hands, and the work carries our 10 year guarantee. We cover Devon, Cornwall, Dorset and Somerset from our workshop at Cranbrook near Exeter.
Other window types we fit
Tilt and Turn Windows: two opening modes from one handle, secure background ventilation and inward cleaning. Bay and Bow Windows: structurally supported bays that keep the original proportions of the elevation. Flush Casement Windows: sashes that sit level with the frame, the way a traditional timber window does. Triple Glazing: three panes and two cavities where the room genuinely needs the extra performance.
Questions people ask
Are aluminium windows cold compared with uPVC?
Not once they are thermally broken. The polyamide bar between the inner and outer shells is what stops metal conducting heat out, and a properly specified thermally broken frame with a warm edge unit performs in the same band as a good uPVC casement.
Does powder coating fade?
A marine grade polyester coating holds colour for decades with nothing more than washing. Cheap architectural grades chalk faster in strong sun, which is why the coating grade is worth naming in the quote rather than assuming.
Do you cover my part of Devon?
We work across Devon, Cornwall, Dorset and Somerset from Cranbrook near Exeter. Every town listed on this page is covered on our normal rounds, and surveys are free with no obligation.
Can you match aluminium windows to existing windows?
Usually yes. We measure the existing sightlines and match colour, glazing pattern and hardware style so a phased job does not end up with two different looking elevations.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, 10 years on our installation and spray work, alongside the manufacturer cover on the units and hardware. The terms are set out with the written quote rather than after the job.
