When it’s Time to Replace Your Windows & Doors

Windows and doors play a substantial role in keeping your home comfortable, liveable, and safe. Although they do have a lifespan of their own, there are plenty of reasons other than physical damage and aesthetic differences to have them replaced. Here are a few pointers to look for, so you know when it’s time to replace your windows and doors.

THEY’RE NOT PERFORMING OPTIMALLY

Functionality is key to your windows and doors, no pun intended. Those that are difficult to open or close, have corroded locks, or produce frequent cold drafts, certainly are not performing optimally and are potentially impacting the security of your home – consider changing them as soon as possible!

NOISE PENETRATION

Whether you live on a busy street, or have some noisy neighbours – you may want to think about switching your doors and windows for something more sound resistant if it’s keeping you up at night.

Luckily, Bradnam’s offers Sound Smart technology on our windows and doors, which alters the frame design, seal type, and glass type to effectively reduce sound transmission. Meaning you can say ‘goodbye’ to barking dogs, honking horns, and late night house parties, and ‘hello’ to privacy and better sleep!

YOU WANT TO REDUCE YOUR ENERGY BILLS

Yes, your windows and doors can play a part in reducing your energy consumption, and even your carbon footprint!

Introducing the wonderful innovations that are Bradnam’s Thermal Breaking and Solar Comfort; which utilise temperature regulating technology and Double Glazing to help to keep your home warm in Winter and cool in Summer.

If Double-Glazed Windows aren’t within budget, Bradnam’s Solar Block is a simple alternative solution that reduces the chance of the heat and glare of the harsh Australian sun from infiltrating your home.

Less reliance on artificial air conditioning and heating means that you’ll see a major difference in your power bills – thank us later!

YOU’RE RENOVATING A HERITAGE HOME

We love a home with character, however, older windows might mean less security, potentially posing a safety hazard during an emergency. Giving your heritage home a 2023 refresh without compromising its history is a great way to improve its value – and Bradnam’s just the people for the job!

LEAKS ARE FORMING

Do you notice a couple of little leaks forming on rainy days?

This is a telltale sign that your seals are no longer performing as needed, and are allowing water to make its way between the glass panes and frames. Proceed with caution, as if this issue is left unresolved, it may lead to decay and permanent water damage in the future.

IS IT TIME TO REPLACE YOUR WINDOWS & DOORS?

Don’t leave something as important as your windows and doors to the last minute! If these issues start emerging, it’s best to resolve it as quickly as possible.

That’s where we come in! Feel free to contact us today to get your window replacements ready to go
