# PVC or aluminium windows – how to choose the right one? One of the most common questions we hear from clients – should you choose PVC or aluminium windows? Both are excellent solutions, but each has its own advantages depending on the house, the budget and the look you want. ## PVC windows Advantages: - Excellent thermal insulation – a great solution for living spaces - Comparatively lower cost - Practically maintenance-free - Wide range of colours and finishes Best suited for: Family homes and apartments where energy efficiency and value for money are the main priorities. ## Aluminium windows - High strength and long service life - Allows large, slim frames – more glass, more light - Modern, minimalist appearance - Resistant to deformation over time Modern homes with large glazed surfaces, commercial buildings, and any case where appearance and long-term durability matter most. ## So which should you choose? If warmth and budget are the priority, PVC windows are a smart solution. If design, large glass areas and durability matter more, aluminium is worth it. In reality, many homes benefit from both – for example, PVC in the bedrooms and aluminium for the large terrace window or façade. ## Related reading Detailed PVC vs aluminium comparison → 5 most common mistakes → Window ordering guide → ## Not sure which solution fits your home?
