Advantages of painting aluminium window frames
First impressions matter. If your home, rental property or commercial building looks unappealing because the old aluminium window joinery is faded or dated, buyers and tenants are unlikely to ever step inside to look at your designer kitchen or bathroom!

Repaint or replace? What’s involved?
By repainting your aluminium windows and doors, you will end up with the same colour as if you replaced them.
The aluminium window and door frames are part of the structure of your home. Once you start to pull these out to be replaced, your cost will escalate very quickly due to the potential interior and exterior works that may be required. It is time consuming and very disruptive.
Systemex can repaint your aluminium windows, doors and frames without any of those hassles and with minimum disruption. All can be done on site, whilst you are still living in your home.
| Repaint | Replace | |
|---|---|---|
| Will it affect the structure of the house? |
Never |
Most of the time  Replacing opening windows and doors are not that difficult, what people do not often consider is the frames. The frames are part of the structure of your home. Once you start to pull the frames out to be replaced, there may be additional work to the interior and exterior of the house. |
| How disruptive is the process? |
Very low All of the work can be done on site, whilst you are still living in the house. And because we are not changing the structure of the house at all and only repainting the aluminium panels, the noise level will be kept at minimum. |
Very high To replace requires removing the frames from the structure of your house. Often this means that to remove and then install new frame cannot be done in one day. This will then require film to be block the hole created by removing the window whilst additional preparation takes place. Generally your whole house will require scaffolding so as new joinery can be fitted. |
| How long does it take? |
One week A two man team can usually do 3 – 4 windows a day. When available for larger homes we try to put 4 -5 staff on the job to reduce time. |
Two weeks Replacement can be lengthy process. To put an exact timeframe on this is very difficult as once they remove the frames from the structure of your house will determine weather tightness, work, architraves, gibbing brickwork, painting etc. |
| How much does it cost? |
Approx. $20,000 Using Systemex process will not only save you $1,000’s of dollars, but add new street appeal and value to your home.For an average 4-bedroom house. |
Approx. $60,000 To remove the window frames from the structure of the house you are going to incur additional costs over and above just the glass. For example full house scaffolding, architraves, skirtings, gib, weather tightness applications, interior and exterior painnting along with any other possible structure damage that may occur. Cost comparisons are usually at least double often and high as 5 times the cost to repaint.For an average 4-bedroom house. |
