Metal window refurbishment/replacement - resources?

They look good, even come in 'Imperial' sizes and the right styles. I
can't find prices anywhere though so I guess: 1 - they're
expensive, 2 - I'll have to call a salesman to find out.
On the other hand, I knew someone who lived in a large block of flats
which used to have metal windows and the majority had been replaced
with identical PVC in matching style. They looked fine; the few
remaining metal ones looked odd.
In some buildings retaining the harmony of the whole can be more
important than individual details.
I so agree, if they are Critall single glazed which result in cold drafts,
heat loss nad further corrosion problems then similar (look alike)
replacements are to be considerred.
