New Windows Aviemore

Maybe you’ve picked up on a drop in temperature around your house. Energy bills climbing. Or condensation collecting on or inside your windows each morning.

Ring a bell? Your windows are sending you a signal.

Old windows lose their seal over time.

Gas seeps out from between the panes. The rubber gaskets harden and pull away. What once did stop the cold now barely makes a difference.

In Aviemore, where the rain and wind can feel more frequent than sunshine, ageing windows really change how warm and comfortable your house feels.

No need to stress about it! The Advanced Group has been helping homeowners for over 38 years. Whether you are after new windows for just one room or every room of replacement windows and doors, we’ll guide you to the right choice and get it all installed the right way.

Some issues are easy to spot, such as cracked glass, rotten timber frames, and handles that won’t lock correctly.

Other signs are harder to notice. By the time you do, they’ve been losing you money for months or years.

If you notice moisture or fogging between the two panes of glass, this is a clear sign that the sealed unit has given way.

When the seal breaks, the argon gas that provides insulation leaks, and the window loses a big amount of its thermal ability.

Increasing heating bills don’t have to keep climbing. Perfectly sealed new windows will bring back your home’s thermal efficiency and start to bring those costs back down.

On a windy day, place your hand near the edges of the window. If you can feel cold air getting through, this means the seals have deteriorated.

Draught proofing strips buy you time, but they’re a sticking plaster at best. The rubber keeps degrading, and the issue only grows.

If your windows catch, won’t lock properly, or are difficult to operate, this creates both a security risk and an insulation concern. Warped frames, worn hinges, and failed mechanisms are all signs that the window has reached the end of its functional life.

Multi-point locking systems on modern windows are far more protective than the single-point catches on older frames, and options like toughened glass add additional safety.

Did you realise that windows are behind a large share of heat loss in any home? They’re the bridge between your house and the outside world.

Your old double glazing? It’s a thing of the past! The energy ratings are way below what’s available now, even if the original spec was good back then.

Installing new double glazed windows and doors is one of the smartest ways to guard your house from high energy costs.

Aviemore houses come in all styles and types, and the right window type depends on your house, the room, and how you live in it.

The Advanced Group provides and installs a full choice of windows and doors in double glazed and triple glazed options, including uPVC casement, sash, tilt and turn, and top hung styles.

Quite likely the most widely chosen window style in the UK, casement windows are side-hinged and open outwards, which makes them ideal for ventilation and easy to clean from inside.

Casement windows fit with most property types. Modern houses, traditional villas, the lot in between. Provided in a wide selection of colours and finishes, including woodgrain effects that replicate the look of timber without the maintenance or warping worry.

The sliding sash windows we install mirror the look of original wooden sash frames, while delivering modern thermal efficiency and security.

The proportions, sight lines, and opening mechanism all match the traditional style, which is great if your property’s in a conservation area or you just want to hold onto its personality.

Tilt and turn windows are genuinely handy! They tilt inward at the top for secure ventilation and swing fully inward on a side hinge for simple cleaning.

They’re particularly well-liked in upper-floor flats, where getting up a ladder to clean the outside of the glass isn’t realistic.

The tilt mode offers you airflow without the safety concerns of a fully open window, which is especially valuable for families with young children.

Top hung windows open outward from the bottom while being hinged at the top, which is brilliant for letting air in without letting rain in.

You’ll find top hung windows in bathrooms, kitchens, stairwells, and bay window arrangements, essentially anywhere that privacy and airflow are both important.

Full-length windows that open outward like French doors. That’s exactly what French windows deliver.

They look well in pairs and can be combined with sidelights to cover a wide opening with glass and natural light.

The Advanced Group’s speciality is uPVC frame materials, and this choice is backed by good reasons.

Scottish weather is harsh, and uPVC is built to be hardwearing and resilient to wild, windy, and wet weather. Unlike timber frames, uPVC won’t have the same warping or rot issues.

Low maintenance is baked in as standard with uPVC.

A brief wipe down with soapy water is all it takes to have your uPVC windows looking good as new.

But more importantly, our uPVC windows are extremely energy efficient. Designed with multi-chambered uPVC, some of our frames can achieve a U-value as low as 0.8 W/m2K, working to recover energy efficiency to your home.

Better of all? uPVC double glazing is the most budget-friendly option.

This allows you to often choose higher-spec glazing without exceeding your budget. We also stock glazed uPVC doors, including uPVC doors, composite doors, and patio doors to coordinate.

Scotland gives cold, wet, and windy weather for a large chunk of the year.

That climate means the energy rating of your windows counts. It affects how much you pay on heating and how comfortable your house feels from one day to the next.

Thermal performance is measured by U-value.

The lower the value, the less heat gets out through the glass and frame. Scottish building regulations currently set a maximum U-value of 1.6 W/m2K for replacement windows.

Standard double glazed windows: 1.2 W/m2K. Premium models: as low as 0.8 W/m2K. That’s twice as effective as the regulatory minimum.

The difference turns up on your energy costs.

A-rated energy-efficient windows and doors with argon gas filled sealed units and low-E glass coatings are brilliant at sending heat back into the room while still letting lots of light through.

If you are replacing from old single-glazed sash windows or early double glazing from the 1990s, you should notice a significant decrease in your heating costs within the first winter.

A number of double glazing firms in Aviemore sell entry-level products, but not many can compete with the quality of the windows and doors we fit.

Our trusted installers are often asked about our triple glazing options.

With an extra pane of glass, triple glazing offers stronger insulation and better noise control.

If your property is in an exposed area, at a high altitude, facing north, or close to a busy road or flight path, The Advanced Group would be more than willing to guide you through the advantages of triple glazing.

We understand that new windows are a considerable purchase, and paying for them in full all at once isn’t always realistic.

So we make available 0% APR and up to 4 years of interest free credit. Straightforward.

This lets you get the windows you need by spreading the cost of your new windows and doors in a way that works around your budget.
