There is a common assumption that all aluminium windows are cold, because older uninsulated aluminium frames earned that reputation decades ago. Modern aluminium windows are built with a thermal break — a section of insulating material that separates the inner and outer aluminium profiles, stopping heat conducting straight through the metal.
It is a question we get regularly in Bath, usually from people extending or renovating a property who want windows and doors that look considered rather than off-the-shelf. Aluminium's narrow frames and strength-to-weight ratio make it the natural choice for larger glazed openings.
Aluminium windows on Victorian and period terraces
Period terraces around Bath sometimes have original steel-framed Crittall-style windows, now often stiff, rusted or draughty, alongside more standard timber sash originals. Georgian architecture in golden Bath stone; Royal Crescent and the Circus; identical terrace facades giving palatial scale means an accurate survey matters before choosing a replacement style.
Heritage-style aluminium windows are designed to replicate the slim glazing bars and proportions of original steel or timber windows, keeping the period look of the frontage while gaining modern thermal performance and security.
Local supply and fit, no subcontracting
A genuine thermal break and energy-rated glazing mean aluminium windows deliver the light and looks of a slim frame without the cold-bridging older aluminium was known for.
A straightforward guide to aluminium window costs

Aluminium Windows in Bath: common questions

- Accurate to the actual opening: Surveys are based on your real openings and requirements, not a generic online estimate.
Slim frames, real thermal performance
More light, less frame, and a genuine thermal break — aluminium windows fitted properly, backed by an insurance-backed guarantee.
Do aluminium windows corrode or rust?
No — aluminium is naturally corrosion-resistant, which combined with a quality powder-coated finish makes it well suited to exposed positions without the maintenance timber or lower-grade materials would need.
Are aluminium windows cold in winter?
Older aluminium windows without a thermal break could feel cold and cause condensation, but modern thermally broken aluminium windows perform well thermally, keeping the internal frame surface much closer to room temperature.
Are aluminium windows secure despite the slim frame?
Yes — aluminium's inherent strength means a slim frame can carry quality multi-point locking hardware just as securely as a thicker frame, so the contemporary look doesn't come at the expense of security.
