How long your aluminium windows will last depends on their quality. They should last 20 -30 years at least, but have been known to stay in good condition for up to 45 years. This is considerably longer than uPVC and wooden double glazing.
Broxbourne
Broxbourne is a commuter town within the Broxbourne borough of Hertfordshire in the East of England which has a population of 13,298 in the 2001 Census. The town is twinned with the Sicilian city of Sutera. The word Broxbourne is believed to derive from the Old English words brocc and burna meaning Badger stream. The Manor of Broxbourne is described inside the Domesday Book, which mentions Broxbourne Mill. The area was mined for its gravel and sand during 20th century. This finally came to an end when the raw materials were exhausted at the end of the 1960s leaving a myriad of water filled lakes. Many of the lakes became a part of the Lee Valley Regional Park. Though urbanised with industrial and commercial manufacturing, the entire area retains a great deal of its rural character and is enjoyed by residents commuting to London. The New River which passes through the centre of the town, was constructed in the early seventeenth century. Broxbourne railway station was built in 1840. A terracotta works was opened soon afterwards by James Pulham and Son, who specialised in making artificial rock gardens; some of their work is still within the gardens at Sandringham House and Buckingham Palace. There are 600 businesses within the borough, with warehousing and distribution sectors being particularly popular. The employers with more than 250 workers include: Fitzpatrick PLC in Hoddesdon (civil engineers); J Sainsbury, also in Hoddesdon; Marks & Spencer; Turnford Retailers and Merck Sharp & Dohme in Hoddesdon related to pharmaceutical research. The national headquarters of Tesco are at Delamere Road, Cheshunt.
