COLOUR CAN COST DONE

There are far more options available to homeowners when it comes to designing or renovating a home and which need to be made quickly. The windows and doors on any home make a massive impression and can affect the kerb appeal of a home when it comes to selling. These are really important points for installers to raise with any potential investors.

A touch of colour in the window frames may seem an old topic nowadays with so much choice already on the market, but not to the consumer who may need help, or at least light steering, in the right direction. There is understanding the location, any local council restrictions that may be in place and knowing the difference between rustic warmth or urban cool when planning with homeowners - done properly colour makes for a good success story all round and will naturally lead to referrals.

Once the homeowners have decided on the style of windows for their home, the colour of the frames should then be the next big aspect to discuss. Whilst it may seem like a simple choice, and for some it really is, there are those who need guidance on colour options available for design styles of both windows and doors if it is to add value. There are now so many colour options for windows, doors and their frames - but working from the style of property, will help create a great finished result and of course, those all desired recommendations.

For a traditional property, the window frame colour should contrast well with the exterior of the building. By contrast, for more modern properties trends show that different colours that blend well with the house exterior are preferred. Whichever style of property it is important to give as much choice as possible while co-ordinating with the final appearance of the home. Cream frames for example, work well with red brick houses and are an excellent alternative to white and black. Wooden or timber effect frames also would work well on this type of property in a number of colours.

The consumer needs to know how they want their home to look once the project is finished to determine the right colour choice. Of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder but generally people do like to feel that ‘value for money’ includes advice on the best options for their own individual house. Replacing windows, is a big project with a big budget for some, and the desire is that the look will not be a trend one year, that does not add true value the next.

Keeping all things the same helps greatly! Matching existing colours or adapting it slightly may be preferable for a more traditional property. What is on the inside will be a good pointer as to the type of finished appearance the owners may want to see once the install is finished. The windows will need to blend in harmony with the rest of the house, not detract or de-value it.
