Thinking About Changing Your Joinery Colour? Here’s What You Need To Know
Tired of the colour of your aluminium windows and doors? Recolouring your existing joinery can completely change the look of your home without replacing the windows.
Your aluminium joinery might still work perfectly, but the colour can make the whole house feel dated.
Bronze, older greens, blues and other colours that were popular years ago can become difficult to work around when you start modernising the rest of your home.
That doesn’t necessarily mean your windows need replacing.
A New Colour Can Change The Look Of Your Whole Home
Windows and doors create strong lines across the exterior of a house. Changing those lines from an older colour to something more contemporary can make a surprisingly big difference.
Black and charcoal tones remain popular because they create clean contrast against lighter cladding, while softer dark neutrals can give a home a more subtle, modern finish.
The important part is choosing a colour that works with the roof, cladding, garage door and overall style of the property rather than choosing the joinery colour in isolation.
Can Existing Aluminium Joinery Be Recoloured?
Yes.
Nano-Clear can professionally recolour existing aluminium joinery rather than replacing it simply because the original colour no longer suits your home.
The existing surface is thoroughly cleaned and prepared before multiple coats of colour are applied.
The recoloured surface is then protected with multiple coats of Nano-Clear® protective coating.
A completely different look, while keeping the joinery you already have.
Inside And Outside
One thing homeowners sometimes don’t realise is that changing only the exterior colour can leave the original colour visible inside the house.
For a complete transformation, Nano-Clear can recolour both the interior and exterior surfaces of your aluminium joinery.
This allows the windows and doors to work with your interior renovation as well as the exterior of the property.
Why Recolour Instead Of Replace?
If the existing joinery is still structurally suitable, replacing complete window and door units simply because you no longer like the colour can create unnecessary cost and disruption.
Recolouring allows you to:
- Modernise the appearance of your home
- Keep your existing window and door units
- Avoid replacing joinery simply because of its colour
- Coordinate the frames with a new colour scheme
- Protect the newly finished surface
Recolour Or Rejuvenate?
These are two different Nano-Clear services.
Rejuvenation restores the existing colour of faded, chalky or oxidised aluminium joinery.
Recolouring changes the colour completely and gives the existing joinery a more modern appearance.
If you like the colour you already have but it has become tired and faded, rejuvenation may be all you need.
If you want a completely different colour, recolouring is the option to investigate.
Don’t Replace Good Joinery Just Because You Don’t Like The Colour
Sometimes a major visual change doesn’t require replacing everything.
If your existing aluminium joinery is still suitable for use, recolouring can give it a completely different appearance while allowing you to keep the windows and doors you already have.
Nano-Clear provides aluminium joinery rejuvenation, recolouring, repair and protection throughout New Zealand.
