Four letters to put off buyers: UPVC

Article Abstract:

Windows are a very prominent feature in a house, and replacement windows which do not suit the period of the house can therefore act as a deterrent to potential purchasers. Many people feel that double glazing will be a good selling point, but research is now indicating that double glazing is in fact not very effective in saving energy, and can therefore be a wasted investment. It is worth paying more to buy wooden frame windows which exactly match the style of the house.
