ECLIPSE ALUMINIUM WINDOWS

At TWC, we offer both aluminium and UPVC windows, catering to homes in locations like Swindon, Oxford, and Didcot.

Aluminium windows, crafted from robust metal, boast a sleek, slim profile, providing a contemporary aesthetic and maximising glass area. They’re durable, requiring minimal maintenance and are highly resistant to weather elements like corrosion, warping, cracking, and fading.

UPVC windows offer commendable thermal insulation but appear bulkier due to their material nature. They too require minimal maintenance, primarily occasional cleaning, and are budget friendly.

While aluminium windows are sleeker and more durable, UPVC windows excel in insulation and affordability. Aluminium tends to be pricier upfront due to materials and manufacturing costs.

At TWC, our experts consider your home’s architectural style, functional needs, and budget, guiding you to make an informed choice between aluminium’s modern aesthetics and durability or UPVC’s insulation benefits and cost-effectiveness.

When it comes to TWC’s aluminium window frames, a range of glazing options caters to diverse needs and preferences.

Double glazing, comprising two glass panes with an argon gas layer between them, significantly enhances insulation, minimising heat transfer and noise infiltration. Ideal for energy-efficient homes, it’s a common choice for TWC customers.

For heightened thermal efficiency, triple glazing employs three glass panes and two insulating gas layers, making it perfect for colder climates or properties requiring superior insulation.

Tinted or reflective glass diminishes glare, regulates solar heat gain, and enhances privacy—popular options for both commercial buildings and residences where excessive sunlight is a concern.

Our textured or patterned glass balances privacy with natural light, often applied in bathrooms or for decorative purposes.

Choosing the right glazing for your aluminium frames should consider climate, energy efficiency goals, noise reduction, and aesthetic preferences. Consult our advisors at TWC to determine the most suitable glazing option tailored to your specific needs and ensure an optimal choice for your home.

Maintaining the longevity and performance of your aluminium windows from TWC is a straightforward but vital task.

Renowned for their durability, aluminium windows typically last 20 to 30 years or more due to their resistance to corrosion and minimal maintenance needs, making them ideal for various climates.

To ensure your aluminium windows remain in excellent condition, regular cleaning is key. Use a mild detergent mixed with warm water and a soft cloth or sponge to gently clean the surface. Avoid abrasive cleaners that might damage the finish. Thoroughly rinse to prevent streaks or stains. If your windows have moving parts, applying a silicone-based lubricant can ensure smooth operation.

With these basic care steps, you can preserve the benefits of your aluminium windows for years, making them a lasting and worthwhile investment for your home’s aesthetic appeal and functionality.

If you’re visiting TWC’s showrooms in Swindon or Oxford, it helps to come prepared.

Ahead of your meeting, gathering photographs of your current windows and their surroundings is beneficial. These visuals offer essential insights into your home’s structure and help our advisors better understand your specific window requirements.

Providing approximate window measurements, though not final, helps in getting an initial understanding of your needs. While our team will take precise measurements during the fitting process, your initial measurements offer valuable information.

Most importantly, sharing your preferences is key. Whether it’s a particular style, colour, material, or essential features you have in mind for your new windows, detailed descriptions are invaluable. Your ideas and preferences guide us in creating replacement windows that align perfectly with your envisioned design and functional needs.

At TWC, your input is crucial in crafting a successful window project that meets and exceeds your expectations. Prepare these details beforehand to ensure a smooth and productive appointment, facilitating a tailored solution for your home.
