Is it time to replace your old, draughty or noisy windows? APS Double Glazing is Melbourne’s trusted window replacement specialist, upgrading homes across Melbourne and regional Victoria with premium uPVC double glazed windows designed for Australian conditions.
Replacing your windows is about more than updating how your home looks. Professional window replacement solves common problems that affect your daily comfort and energy bills. Old or inefficient windows can lead to:
Upgrading to high-performance double glazed replacement windows delivers immediate improvements in comfort, efficiency and value. Homeowners across Melbourne choose window replacement to create quieter, more comfortable homes while reducing ongoing energy costs and maintenance requirements.
Window replacement can refer to a few different approaches depending on the condition of your existing windows.
In some cases, it involves removing the entire window and installing a new system. In others, it may be possible to replace only the glass or repair components such as seals, hinges or locks.
The most common options include:
The right approach depends on the condition of the frame, the level of performance required, and long-term goals for the home.
Not every window needs to be replaced. In some cases, a targeted repair may be enough.
Repair may be suitable when:
Replacement is often worth considering when:
If several components are failing at the same time, replacing the window may provide a more reliable long-term outcome.
The time required for window replacement depends on how many windows are being replaced and how accessible they are. In many homes, installation can be completed over one to two days once the windows are ready. Each window is usually replaced individually, which helps keep disruption manageable while ensuring proper fit, sealing and performance.
You may need window replacement if you notice draughts, outside noise, condensation between panes, difficulty opening or closing windows, or rising heating and cooling costs. Ageing frames, especially older aluminium or timber ones, can also lose efficiency over time. If your home feels uncomfortable despite using heating or cooling, your windows could be a contributing factor.
Double glazing can add to your property’s appeal by improving comfort, energy efficiency and noise reduction. Many buyers now look for homes with modern, low-maintenance features, and upgraded windows may make your property more attractive compared to similar homes with older glazing. While value increases vary, double glazing is often seen as a long-term improvement rather than a cosmetic upgrade.
Yes, old windows are typically removed as part of the window replacement process. This includes taking out existing frames and glass and disposing of them responsibly. Proper removal helps protect surrounding walls and finishes and allows new windows to be installed and sealed correctly for long-term performance.
uPVC double glazed windows require very little maintenance compared to timber or older aluminium frames. Occasional cleaning with mild soapy water is usually enough to keep frames looking good. There is no need for painting, sanding or corrosion treatment, which makes them well-suited to Australian conditions and busy households.

Before moving ahead with a window replacement project, it can be helpful to understand the different options available. The right combination of glazing, materials and window styles can influence comfort, performance and long-term suitability for your home.
While frame material plays a role, glazing has a significant impact on comfort and performance.
Common options include:
The right combination depends on your home’s location, orientation and how each room is used.
There is no single “best” window material. The right option depends on the home, budget and performance requirements.
Material choice should consider climate, maintenance expectations and the overall design of the home.
Different window styles suit different spaces depending on ventilation, access and layout.
A well-planned design considers how each room is used, along with airflow, cleaning access and overall comfort.
Window replacement costs can vary depending on window size, style, glazing type and access requirements. While double glazing is often seen as a premium upgrade, many homeowners consider it a long-term investment due to improved energy efficiency, lower ongoing maintenance and added property appeal.
Value is more than just price. As a window replacement company, we focus on local manufacturing to European-quality standards, experienced installers and strong warranties to support long-term performance. This approach helps ensure proper installation, consistent insulation and reliable durability in Australian conditions.
Window replacement costs can also be influenced by several factors, including:
Some homeowners may also choose to replace windows in stages, focusing first on areas that have the greatest impact on comfort, such as bedrooms or street-facing rooms.
Window performance can vary depending on location and property type.
These factors are important to consider when selecting the right window system.
When planning a window replacement project, it helps to avoid some common pitfalls:
A well-informed approach can help ensure the final result performs as expected.
