Replacing Old Windows and Doors with uPVC Modern Upgrades
We are not recommending any double glazing brands, just construction advice with links to reputable websites.
Old and tired windows and doors not only detract from your home’s appearance but can also be energy-draining and unsafe, costing you more in the long run. Upgrading your windows and doors with double glazing not only enhances your home’s value but also improves energy efficiency, reducing heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer.
Newer installations are both visually appealing and energy-efficient, which is essential in today’s climate. uPVC window installations are a popular choice when replacing old units due to their low maintenance and durability. Look for the Brackenwood BSI kitemark and opt for FENSA-approved installations for quality assurance.
Replacing old windows and doors with modern, energy-efficient options not only improves aesthetics but also contributes to a quieter, more comfortable home, reducing noise pollution. With the UK property market increasingly valuing sustainable features, these upgrades are wise investments that boost market appeal.
The Glass and Glazing Federation has a calculator that demonstrates how much you could save with uPVC, new timber or Aluminium frame bifold doors to open to your garden, with matching double-glazed replacement products.
Financial reasons to extend your home in 2025
Extending or renovating your home can be a major investment, but it can also pay off financially in many ways.
You may be dreaming of an extension, but perhaps you are struggling with how you would incorporate one within your plot of land. We are very happy to come visit you to discuss how best you can make maximum use of the available space. Our house extensions have provided people with extra bedrooms, extra public rooms, studies, toilets, garage or workshop space, as well as dream kitchen-diner areas. Sometimes our experts can help you work out the possibilities – and you might be pleasantly surprised at what we can do for you, and how little it will cost.
Here are some of the key financial benefits of home extensions:
Home Improvements increase the value of your property
Adding extra living space, modernising outdated areas, and improving your home’s layout and functionality can significantly boost your property’s value. Recent home value data shows that a well-designed extension can increase a home’s value by 10-20%. This provides a major return on investment when the time comes to sell.
Trust the team here at Buildworks, we are prompt and polite, clean and sustainable and above all value lots of communication. Your Project Manager is Dave, and you can speak to him in the office on 07860 191 395.
Extra Living Space for Your Growing Family
Whether you need more room for a growing family, home office space, or leisure areas, extending gives you the chance to gain valuable extra square footage without the hassle and expense of moving. Even a modest single-storey extension can add a bedroom, bathroom, open plan kitchen-diner, or other useful living space. See our home extensions services for more information.
Improve Your Home’s Energy Efficiency
Newer home extensions allow you to install better insulation, draught-proofing, windows, and doors. This can reduce your energy bills and carbon footprint. Extra space also lets you install more efficient heating systems and renewable energy sources, like solar panels or heat pumps. Improving your home’s energy efficiency is not only cost-effective but also environmentally beneficial.
Create a More Functional and Comfortable Home
Remodelling or extending areas like the kitchen, bathroom, and living spaces lets you design a more ergonomic, practical layout with the latest fittings and technologies for modern family living. Open-plan designs, bi-fold doors, and clever use of space improve day-to-day comfort. To view our gallery of recent projects, click here.
Make Your Home More Attractive to Buyers
Updating tired, old-fashioned areas of your home with contemporary extensions and renovations enhances its kerb appeal and desirability when you come to sell. Well-designed new spaces help your home stand out and sell quickly in a competitive market. Our client testimonials demonstrate our commitment to quality that appeals to potential buyers.
In summary, the financial gains from increasing living space, improving energy efficiency, and boosting your property’s sale appeal make home extensions a worthwhile investment. A well-designed extension that suits your needs can be a real asset, providing excellent returns in the long run.
Investing in Efficient Home Energy Solutions
Investing in efficient home energy solutions not only saves money on energy bills but also enhances your home’s appearance and safety. Prioritising energy efficiency, choosing styles that complement your home’s architecture, consulting professionals, and selecting quality products contribute to higher returns when it comes time to sell.
