How to renovate the old window? After a long time, scratches and cracks will inevitably appear in the windows of the house, which will greatly affect the beauty and safety of the house. But the cost of direct replacement is too high, so most people will transform the windows. Let's take a look at how to renovate the old windows.
How to turn over the old and new windows 1 1 How to renovate old windows without tearing them down?
Clean the old windows first to ensure that the window frames, hinges and hinges are free from rust, dust, nails and other defects. If there is unevenness, it needs to be smoothed with sandpaper, and there are defects such as nail holes and cracks, and the gaps are filled with putty powder. It will be better to paint the window twice after it is treated, that is, primer and topcoat.
Second, the sliding window air leakage?
1, check the cause of air leakage, whether it is caused by improper installation. Generally, the position where the window frame contacts the wall is not well sealed, and air leakage will occur. It is necessary to clean up the sundries and dust in the contact part between the window frame and the wall, and then fill it with styrofoam. After filling, the gap between window and wall must be sealed with waterproof sealant.
2. Determine whether the sliding window itself has quality problems. You can find a merchant who buys a window or a window brand after sale and replace it with a new window.
3. If the installation details are not done well, resulting in air leakage in the window, the window can be removed and reinstalled without changing the original structure of the window, and the installation process needs to be carried out in strict accordance with the installation standards.
4. If the gap causing air leakage is not large, a sealing strip can be used. Generally, after a period of use, the sealing strip needs to be replaced.
5. If the air leakage gap is too large, simply installing the sealing strip can't solve the problem. It is necessary to add another layer of plastic steel window to the original window to solve the problem.
6. Unqualified materials used in the window production process will also lead to air leakage. You can check the sealing of window frames and windowsills outside. If there are gaps, you can clean up all the original sealing places, and then buy a better quality weather-resistant sealant for soft sealing.
3. What are the precautions for the renovation of old houses?
1. The structure shall not be changed without permission.
When the house is decorated, don't change the structure of the house without permission. Even if you want to modify the original structure and increase some space, you must find a professional company to transform it, and you can't open the wall without permission. If you accidentally hit the load-bearing wall, it will leave serious security risks and even lead to the collapse of the wall.
2, waterproof problem
When decorating the house, don't ignore the waterproof problem. The old house itself is relatively long, so the bathroom must be waterproof and tiled.
3. Leave more sockets.
When the old house is renovated, you can leave more sockets. Old houses generally have few sockets, which are basically not enough. When redecorating, you can leave more sockets for use according to your own needs.
When painting the wall, remove the old paint first.
When redecorating the house, you should repaint the walls. You can't paint directly on the wall, or the paint will come off. You must ask a professional to remove the old paint from the original wall and repaint it.

1, cleaning of plastic steel doors and windows, rinse with warm water first, and then wipe with a wet cloth dipped in a little alcohol, the glass of plastic steel doors and windows will be particularly bright.

Matters needing attention in purchasing plastic-steel windows:
1, select the profile. Considering that most houses have large windows (such as balcony sealing) and many high-rise buildings, the wall thickness of profiles should be greater than 2.5 mm, and the inner cavity is of three-cavity structure, with closed drainage cavity, isolation cavity and reinforcement cavity to ensure that the windows will not be deformed for decades. In addition, such profiles are not easy to change color and age.
2. Observe the plastic steel. Surface smoothness of doors and windows, whether there are obvious scratches, whether there are cracks at welding corners, whether the corners are beautiful and uniform, etc.
3. Hardware should try to choose accessories with good performance and flexible opening and closing.
High-quality plastic steel doors and windows should be combined with advanced window design to benefit residents for life. For example, in a house with high outdoor noise, it is best to choose plastic-steel windows and insulating glass, which has excellent sealing and sound insulation effect. A window is a part of a building, and it should have the same life as a building. Choosing a good door and window is also a good guarantee for the quality of home.
How to renovate old windows 3 What types of renovation of old doors and windows include?
The first is the transformation of ordinary doors and windows. This renovation mainly deals with some aging, corrosion, pollution, cracking and so on on the surfaces of doors and windows. The second is that doors and windows need some functional repairs besides surface renovation. For example, doors and windows are not closed properly, doors are not opened properly, and so on.
How to deal with renovation of old doors and windows?
The first step is disassembly. If you want to rebuild the doors and windows at home, you need to tear down these old doors and windows before you can have the conditions to deal with them. The second step is to deal with the original pollution and corrosion on doors and windows. For example, in the decoration of wooden doors in our house, we need to use sandpaper to polish off all the cracked paint on the surface, and then the putty inside needs to be polished. At the same time, clean up all the pollution on the surface.
The third step is redrawing. When repainting, different situations have different treatment methods. For example, the missing part of putty on the wooden door surface needs to be filled with putty first. Iron doors and windows should be painted with anti-rust paint first, and then painted with topcoat. In this way, the problems existing in the surface layer have been dealt with in place.
The fourth step is to renovate the door frame or window frame on the wall. At this time, it can only be polished and derusted in the original position, and then repainted. And make sure it is dry before installation. The fifth step is installation recovery. When we have decorated all the doors and windows, including door frames, door leaves, window frames and window sashes, we will finally install the doors and windows with the original hardware and other materials. In this way, the renovation of old doors and windows was completed.
The appearance and function of old doors and windows are renovated at the same time. What should I do?
In the first step, we also need to remove the old doors and windows at home. Then find a place where you can polish, remove rust and paint to prepare for the next door and window treatment. Step 2: Polishing and derusting the removed door and window sash and the door frame and window frame that have not been removed. Clean the surfaces of these doors and windows. For example, rust must be removed, and the paint putty that explodes the skin must be polished off. Finally, for wood and iron, the method of batch putty or antirust paint is used for renovation.
The third step is functional innovation. Functional decoration includes door and window hardware, sealing strips, hinges, etc. My personal opinion is that all the window sealing strips are replaced with new sealing strips. Then all the hardware is replaced. For example, the hinges on our door leaves and the sealing strips on the door leaves should be replaced.
The fourth step is installation recovery. Install the refurbished door leaf or sash with new hardware and sealing strips, and finally install it on our refurbished window frame or door frame. In this way, the door and window decoration is basically completed.
Personal suggestions on the treatment of old doors and windows
Suggestions on the treatment of old plastic-steel windows: For the plastic-steel doors and windows originally installed in home improvement, if they are old after several years of use, I personally suggest that you directly replace them with the latest broken aluminum. In this way, its heat preservation, heat insulation and sound insulation performance are far superior to the original plastic steel.
Suggestions on the treatment of old wooden doors and windows: For the previous wooden doors, many of them are made of solid wood, so the quality is actually very good. Then my personal suggestion is to renovate these doors and windows and paint them. This can be used for many years.
