When the homes were built
When homes in Burley in Wharfedale were built, and what that means for the frames
Around Burley in Wharfedale centre, the Valuation Office Agency counts 3,400 properties: 23% built before 1919, 12% between the wars, 25% from 1945 to 1972, 23% from 1973 to 1999 and 16% since 2000. The standout figure is the 23% (about 770 properties) built from 1973 to 1999, above the 19% average. uPVC became the normal window for new houses during the 1980s and 1990s, so many of those 770 homes still have their first frames. For those 770 properties, the frames are now roughly 25 to 50 years old, the age when white uPVC chalks, yellows or greys in the sun while the windows themselves still work. By contrast, only 12% were built between the wars, against a 16% average, so 1920s and 1930s bay-fronted houses are a smaller part of the local mix than elsewhere.
39% of properties here (about 1,330) were built from 1973 onwards, close to the 36% average, and 35% (about 1,190) predate 1939, so in Burley in Wharfedale you will find both original uPVC on newer houses and replacement frames on older ones; the survey tells us which you have.
Types of home in Burley in Wharfedale, and a worked price
Of the 3,189 households counted around Burley in Wharfedale centre in the 2021 Census, 38% live in detached houses, 27% in semi-detached, 24% in terraced houses and 10% in flats. The largest group is detached houses, about 1,220 households or 38% (average 20%), and at our published rates a detached house with ten windows and two doors would come to roughly £1,200 to £2,200 before fascias, soffits or a conservatory, with the exact price set after we check frame sizes, condition and access.
Detached and semi-detached houses together account for 65% of households, about 2,080 (average 58%), and houses like these tend to have more elevations, longer runs of fascia and soffit, and often a conservatory or porch. For those 2,080 homes, the whole-house package of £2,000 to £5,500 on our service page is a more realistic guide than a per-window price.
About 2,860 households here (90%) live in houses rather than flats, and many houses with uPVC windows also have a uPVC roofline of fascias, soffits and bargeboards that weathers alongside them; spraying the roofline in the same visit as the frames ties the colour together and is usually more economical than two separate jobs.
Owners, landlords and timing
82% of households own their home, about 2,610, above the 63% average, and only 10% rent privately; for those owner-occupiers the comparison that matters is with replacement, which our service page puts at £8,000 to £15,000 for a whole house against £2,000 to £5,500 for a full respray with a 10-year written guarantee.

How a Kolorbond uPVC Respray Works
uPVC is smooth and non-porous, so ordinary paint has little to grip and soon peels; a proper respray uses coatings made for uPVC, applied in a set order:
- Survey: frames checked for soundness
- Deep clean to remove chalking
- Specialist uPVC adhesion primer
- Two Kolorbond-certified topcoats, HVLP-sprayed
- Joint inspection, then written guarantee
Glass, seals, brickwork and handles are masked throughout, and we use Kolorbond-certified coatings made to bond to uPVC, which is what allows us to give a 10-year written guarantee on uPVC; a professionally applied coating lasts 10 years or more in normal conditions, and our article on how long uPVC spray painting lasts in Yorkshire weather explains what affects that.
Respray or replace?
Replacing every uPVC window and door on a house typically costs £8,000 to £15,000 and counts as controlled work under the Building Regulations, whereas a respray at £2,000 to £5,500 leaves the existing double glazing, seals and hinges untouched; replacement is still the right call if frames are warped or cracked or the sealed glass has failed, and we will tell you so at the survey; see our comparison of uPVC spraying and window replacement costs.
Choosing a colour in Burley in Wharfedale
With a mix of 23% pre-1919 and 39% post-1973 properties among the 3,400 here, there is no single house style to design around, which is one reason anthracite grey (RAL 7016) is so widely chosen: it suits red brick, buff brick, stone and render alike, with sage and darker greens, cream and black the other common choices, and our guide to the colours uPVC can be sprayed explains the options.
A uPVC conservatory can be resprayed on its own or with the house (read what spraying a uPVC conservatory involves), and if it is only the front door you want to change, see front door spraying in Burley in Wharfedale.
