Common uPVC window problems

There can be a variety of reasons this happens, but it usually happens because of wear and tear. In kitchens and bathrooms, moisture can get into hinge joints and cause them to stiffen up and seize.  Windows left closed for long periods and suddenly opened can cause a hinge to buckle. At uPVC Door Repairs Doncaster, we recommend a squirt of GT85  twice a year to help maintain the hinges, though nobody ever does or even thinks about it.

Another common problem is that the hinges operate but let in cold air at the edges. One of the hinges is not pulling the window in fully, leaving a gap around the edge. The way to check is to run a thin piece of plastic—a credit card is perfect—around all the edges of the window. The card should be held lightly in place. If it isn’t gripping, it’s probably a hinge problem. Getting your window hinge repair in Doncaster soon will save you money in the long run.
