Aluminium windows in Surrey / Middx

Dear Money savers,

I'd like to install new windows and bifold doors in around August / September this year. I'd like a black finish - which is why I'm rejecting UPVC - as i hear expansion is an issue/

Can anyone recommend an economical and good quality supplier who covers Surrey / Middlesex (TW16)

It's roughly 6 big windows, two sets of bi-folds, and one floor to ceiling glass window - plus 3 little ones.

If anyone has experience with black (powder coated ) aluminium, i'd love to hear from you - how has it fared in south facing locations, has expansion or fading been an issue?

Thanks
Christine

    My mother-in-law has just had her windows replaced with dark grey powder coated aluminium frames and they are really good quality. She had about 30-35 windows done for about £15k (supply only).

    If I had the cash, I'd get them too!
