UPVC frames are making headway as homeowners are drawn to the low levels of maintenance needed. How can you compare these two materials and is there a clear winner between them? The answer depends on your circumstance and tastes.Benefits of Wooden Window FramesThe traditional choice for framing of both windows and doors, timber does not conduct heat and so creates an effective insulation barrier for your home. Wood frames can also be made to fit any size of shape, given the versatility of the material and the affordability of manufacturing. Wooden frames are also chosen to match with existing features on period homes. When this level of authenticity is what you want, nothing but wood will do. UPVC and composite products can offer a similar appearance, but the texture and feel of wood is difficult to replicate.Wooden frames can also be repaired fairly easily with basic tools, especially when compared to the more complicated design of uPVC frames.
