We are replacing all of the wooden framed windows in our house with some nice uPVC units.
The question I have is should we be also replace the wooden window boards/sills?

If so, what is the best option - plastic or wood again?

Thanks :)
 
So this is our window and door quote details. The spec and price look good to me - any thoughts?

  • Glass - A-rated, 28mm, twin-sealed, double glazed units which are manufactured as standard to include Planitherm© heat reflective glass, thermal spacer bar and argon gas filled to maximise insulation.
  • Profile - 70mm thick, multiple chamber profile with composite reinforcement for greater insulation.
  • Easy clean hinges - all side opening windows are fitted with stainless steel hinges that open fully to ninety degrees, and also feature a mechanism that allows the opening window to slide across into the centre for ease of cleaning.
