How does it work?
Existing joinery is removed entirely and a new window or door and framing structure is installed. It is a full replacement giving you the opportunity to completely change the colour, style and configuration of your windows and doors.
What's involved?
Existing joinery including facings, flashings and architraves are completely removed. The opening is then prepared with flashing tapes and sill pans. New joinery is installed; plumb, level and square before it is fixed off to the current NZ Building Code requirements.
External head flashings, facings, scribers (and decorative sills if required) are fitted. To stop draughts and air flow, an internal air seal is applied between the house framing and the new window reveal. Finally, the internal architraves are fitted.
Once installation is complete, you will need to fill and paint the interior liners and architraves, return furniture and reinstate your window coverings.
Replacement windows and doors allows you to have brand new joinery along with new window sills and architraves. Throughout the replacement process, there is the option to choose a specific joinery colour, update sills, change the configuration and size, and choose from aluminium or uPVC joinery. All of these preferences can be made with your current home design in mind.
Replacing with high performance double-glazing from our ThermalHeart+® range can hugely improve your home's thermal performance, creating a comfortable, warm, and healthy home.
