Deganwy: replacement aluminium windows
The price of aluminium windows depends on the size and number of frames, the profile system, opening sashes, colour and finish, glass specification and access. Dual colours, special finishes, glazing bars and triple glazing add cost. See the guide prices for typical ranges, and the written quote fixes your figure.
Aluminium frames are usually finished with polyester powder coating, baked on at the factory in a choice of RAL colours and in matt, satin or textured finishes. Dual-colour frames are possible, such as anthracite grey outside and white inside, so the windows can suit both the street and the room.
Aluminium windows are fabricated to order: profiles are cut, coated, assembled and glazed to the survey sizes. Lead times can be longer than for standard white uPVC, particularly for special colours or steel-look designs, and the expected timescale is confirmed in writing when you accept the quote.
Steel-look aluminium windows reproduce the slim frames and glazing bars of traditional metal windows while adding a thermal break and double glazing. They are often chosen to replace failing original steel windows in 1930s houses, though conservation areas and listed buildings may need consent for the change.
Included as standard
- Survey, measuring and structural check of each opening
- Sealed double or triple glazed units to specification
- Fitting, sealing and finishing the reveals neatly

About Deganwy for this job
- Postcodes covered
- LL31 and the surrounding area, including Llandudno, Colwyn Bay and Abergele
- Coast
- Deganwy is about 2 km from the coast or a tidal estuary, so salt air and wind-driven rain are worth planning for. Salt air attacks metal finishes, so aluminium windows near the coast need a coating and pretreatment suited to marine exposure, stainless or protected hardware, and more frequent washing. Check that the coating terms allow for a coastal site before ordering.
- Daylight and sun
- In Deganwy the midwinter sun reaches about 13° above the horizon at noon, with roughly 7.3 hours of daylight, rising to about 60° and 16.7 hours in midsummer. Slim aluminium frames let more daylight through the same opening. Large south or west-facing panes can overheat rooms, so solar-control glass may help, while north-facing rooms benefit from high light-transmission low-E glass that keeps heat in during short winter days.
- Access and setting
- Rural homes often mix old stone walls with modern extensions, and aluminium suits both when profiles are chosen carefully. Irregular openings are measured individually, and exposed sites benefit from systems with high weather ratings and well-sealed joints against driving rain.
- Rules in Wales
- In Wales, Approved Document N covers safety glazing: safety glass is needed in and around doors and in low-level glazing where people could walk into it.

Wales sets its own energy standards in the Welsh Approved Document L. Replacement windows, doors and rooflights must meet the limiting values set there, which your quote will reference.

Side-hung, top-hung or fixed sashes in slim aluminium frames, suiting most houses and extensions, with flush or stepped sash designs.
Flush casement

Aluminium Windows in Deganwy: questions
How do I look after powder-coated aluminium windows?
Clean powder-coated aluminium windows with warm water and a mild, non-abrasive detergent a few times a year, then rinse and dry. Avoid scouring pads, solvents and pressure washers close to the seals. Keep drainage slots clear and put a little light oil on hinges and locking points. Near the coast, more frequent washing removes salt deposits.
What colours can aluminium windows be?
Aluminium windows can be powder coated in almost any RAL colour, in matt, satin, gloss or textured finishes, and many systems offer a different colour on each side. Anthracite grey, black and white are common choices, but heritage greens, creams and bronze tones are available too. Special colours can extend the manufacturing lead time, which is confirmed with the quote.
How long does it take to install aluminium windows?
Most single windows are fitted within a day, and a typical house takes a few days on site depending on the number of windows and the access. The longer part is manufacturing, because frames are cut, coated and glazed to the survey sizes. The expected lead time is confirmed in writing when you accept the quote.
Can aluminium windows replace original steel windows?
Yes, steel-look aluminium windows are designed for this. They copy the slim frames and glazing bars of old metal windows while adding double glazing and a thermal break. Original steel frames are often set into the masonry, so removal can disturb render or plaster, and the survey checks this. Listed buildings and conservation areas may need consent first.
