Vinyl
These types of frames are made from PVC (polyvinyl chloride) with ultraviolet light stabilizers to keep sunlight from damaging the material. They don’t require painting and are quite good at waterproofing or keeping moisture out. We can also provide you with Insulated vinyl frames if your concerns are for energy efficiency. These are just like standard vinyl except they come equipped with insulation inside the frame.
Fiberglass
Similar to vinyl except made with fiberglass, they’re hollow inside but can be filled with insulation to be made thermally superior to wood or standard vinyl frames.
Aluminum or Metal
Aluminum frames are known for being strong, light and being practically maintenance free. However, when compared with vinyl and fiberglass, metal makes a very poor insulating material.
Composite Wood
These are made of combined wood products and are generally known for being stable and energy efficient. They also have excellent waterproofing and decay resistance.
Low-E Glass
For high performance replacement windows, this is a great option for those who are energy efficient minded. It comes with the best possible solar gains and can truly help you save on the energy bill.
Tempered Glass
This is also known as safety glass and is designed to break in a way that significantly reduces injury. If broken, it will break into tiny granular chunks of glass instead of shards. We commonly install this within windows that are close to the ground, windows within a bathroom or within doors.
