marchitects home alterations

Bi fold doors are now commonly asked for when altering homes. Clients specify upvc to save costs but the resultant frame width and restricted sight lines can create a clumsy appearance. Always consider the remaining  visible glass as a upvc frame can diminish this considerably especially on narrower openings.

Many clients remain unconvinced about the extra up front costs and maintenance of good quality timber or aluminium windows against pvc. But given concerns over end of life recycling of plastics and the use of environmentally polluting plastic material in their manufacture we are trying to move to plastic free approach in our specification of these elements.
