Window sills outside the building are often a big challenge for architects. After all, this element of finishing requires proper thought and the use of durable material, thanks to which the surface of the window sill will ensure its resistance to changing weather conditions.

There are many building materials available on the market that can be used to make exterior window sills to protect a house or public building from moisture or mold.

The latter are characterized by great durability or frost resistance and allow for maximum protection of the building against the negative effects of external factors.

In this article, we will answer the question: why should exterior concrete window sills become the primary choice for architects and what physical properties of noble concrete make such window sills better than those made of conglomerate or stone?

Technical parameters of architectural concrete window sills

What makes concrete the best solution for external window sills? First of all, it is an extremely durable material that can offer a lot. Thanks to this, they will protect the surface of the window sill for many years, without the need for frequent repairs or maintenance.

The edge of the external window sill is a surface that is particularly exposed to contact with negative external factors, such as rain, wind, frost or intense sunlight. Precious concrete has such physical properties that ensure its resistance to abrasion or mechanical damage, so it is not subject to as rapid wear as other finishing materials.

At the same time, it can be impregnated to further increase its resistance to the negative effects of weather conditions. Such features of concrete make it perfectly meet all the requirements that are set for it.
