FAQs

Can this window sill cover be used for outdoor applications?

No, the Eurocell Rounded Window Sill Cover Board is specifically designed for internal use only. While it is made from exterior-grade uPVC, its primary function and installation method are intended for indoor window sills.

What type of adhesive should I use to install this cover board?

You should use a strong, uPVC-compatible adhesive or high-strength silicone sealant. These are typically available at hardware stores and are designed to bond plastics securely.

How do I cut the cover board to my specific window length?

We recommend using a fine-toothed hand saw or a miter saw for clean, precise cuts. Always measure twice and cut once. For best results, support the board firmly during cutting.

What if my existing window sill is wider than 210mm?

This specific variant of the Eurocell cover board has a width of 210mm. If your existing sill is wider, this product may not fully cover it. You would need to check for other available Eurocell variants that offer greater widths.

Is the Eurocell window sill cover board paintable?

Generally, uPVC is not recommended for painting without specialist primers, as standard paints may not adhere well or could flake over time. This particular variant is supplied in white, offering a clean, finished look without the need for painting.

How do I maintain the clean appearance of the cover board?

Simply wipe the surface with a soft cloth dampened with mild soapy water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemical solvents, as these can damage the uPVC finish.

Troubleshooting

Cover board does not fit snugly or has gaps.

Re-check your measurements against the existing sill's length and depth. If gaps are minor, a uPVC-compatible sealant can be applied carefully along the edges. Ensure the existing sill was clean and level before installation.

Difficulty achieving a clean cut.

Use a fine-toothed hand saw for precision cuts on uPVC. Alternatively, a sharp utility knife with multiple passes along a straight edge can work for thinner material, but a saw is generally recommended for cleaner edges on 9mm thickness. Always support the board properly during cutting to prevent splintering.

Adhesive not holding the board securely.

Ensure you used a uPVC-compatible, strong grab adhesive and followed its application instructions. The existing sill surface must be clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. Apply sufficient pressure during installation and allow the recommended curing time before disturbing the board.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Measure: Carefully measure the length of your existing window sill. Also, ensure your existing sill's projection allows for the 210mm width to cover it adequately without overhang where unwanted. The bullnose profile is designed to fit over an existing lip.
  2. Cut: Using a fine-toothed saw or a sharp utility knife, cut the Eurocell cover board to the exact measured length. Use a straight edge for a clean, precise cut.
  3. Prepare Surface: Clean your existing window sill thoroughly, ensuring it is free of dust, grease, and loose debris. Allow it to dry completely.
  4. Apply Adhesive: Apply a suitable uPVC-compatible adhesive (e.g., strong grab adhesive or silicone sealant) in beads or a zigzag pattern to the top surface of your existing sill.
  5. Position & Secure: Carefully place the Eurocell cover board onto the existing sill, ensuring the bullnose profile engages correctly with the front edge. Apply firm, even pressure along the entire length. Wipe away any excess adhesive immediately.
  6. Cure Time: Allow the adhesive to cure fully as per the manufacturer's instructions before placing any items on the sill.

Compatibility

This 210mm wide Eurocell cover board is designed for *internal* window sills. It is compatible with most standard internal sill types that have a suitable front lip for the bullnose profile to cover. Ensure your existing sill's depth is no more than 210mm for a flush fit, or less if you intend to trim the back edge.

Care

Maintaining your Eurocell window sill cover is straightforward:

  • Cleaning: Wipe down regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soapy water. For stubborn marks, a non-abrasive uPVC cleaner can be used.
  • Avoid: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or solvent-based chemicals, as these can damage the uPVC surface.
