Window sills

Hello,
we were sampling staircases and window sills last week. For the exterior window sills, the standard is Rosa-beta. Our question now would be whether aluminum window sills would be better or worse?! Probably financially cheaper, but we are more concerned about the noise level during rain and the streaks that form on the sides of the window sills due to rain and dirt... What are your experiences with that?

Best regards,

the A-team

I want to briefly repurpose the topic: What do you think about setting the windows flush with the outside and doing without [Fensterbänke]? I don't like them at all, inside either, for example with wood but certainly not with granite (unless it matches the interior design)...

Misusing the 2nd post is not acceptable...

I would choose granite, it looks more valuable to me and I haven’t heard any complaints about it yet (in contrast to aluminum).

Hi,
we currently have aluminum window sills, have never heard anything. It will be the same for the new building. In my opinion, it also looks significantly better than granite "rosa beta". But that is really a matter of personal preference.

Best regards,

Andreas

We also have aluminum and have never heard anything. Putting windows on the insulation is not possible.

and the "dirt streaks" that always form under the granite window sills?
