Clean uPVC Windows, Doors, Guttering, Facias & Conservatories

How to Clean uPVC Windows, Doors, Guttering, Facias & Conservatories

It’s really quite surprising just how dirty your uPVC windows and doors can get. Whatever the time of year they will be exposed to all weathers and elements outside and the same on the inside as well. Whether you have newish uPVC windows or older style ones they will all start to lose their brightness and shine after being exposed to the elements. 

The winter weather can cause black mildew, mould, moss, general dirt, dead insects, cobwebs and the build-up of dirt and grime on your windows and doors outside and this can make your property seem dull and unkempt. Giving them a good clean with the right product will clean and brighten them and you’ll see such a difference. 

The same for the inside of your uPVC windows and doors, they will be exposed to the colder winter months and in contrast, the central heating can cause first and sometimes mildew to build up, especially where the panes of glass meets the uPVC. 

You may look at your windows and think they need replacing which is a huge cost when all they actually need is a good clean using Eco Solutions uPVC Cleaner.

Replacing your windows with uPVC Double glazing will vary depending on the types of windows you want, the size of windows you need and the number of windows you have. Generally, depending on where you are in the country and if you use a local or national company, the average price per uPVC frame is known to be around £300. As an example, a bay window normally has 5 frames so would cost on average a total of £1,500.

The average double glazing cost for a standard 3-bed semi-detached UK home can cost anything between £5,000 and £8,000 dependent on the above factors. 

With this in mind, cleaning them and making them white and bright again will save you a huge amount of money and mess in the long run. 

Traditional Way to Clean uPVC Windows, Doors, Guttering & Facias

Wash thoroughly with soap and water

Mix a cup of white vinegar with 4 cups of warm water

Add the mixture to a sprayer

Spray onto the uPVC 

Leave to work for 10 minutes

Use a dry clean cloth to wipe away the dirt

Often this will need repeating and the deep areas of grime will need to be worked on to remove the dirt

If there are still areas of dirt then baby wipes can sometimes remove stubborn grime

How to Not Clean uPVC Windows, Doors, Guttering & Facias

Never apply too much pressure or work too much into a uPVC window frame or seal as this can damage it

Never use bleach. Bleach can damage the top layer of the uPVC and it will often turn a yellow colour when the sun has been on it for a while

Never use cream type cleaners as they will scratch the surface of the uPVC and permanently remove the shiny surface

Don’t use methylated spirits, nail varnish remover, WD40, white spirits as all can damage and break the surface layer of the uPVC

Never use a scourer pad, wire wool or iron wool to clean or to try and remove stubborn areas of dirt as again it will scratch and damage the top layer of the uPVC
