What are the benefits of energy-efficient windows?
Energy-efficient windows help regulate the temperature inside your home or business, reducing the need for excessive heating or cooling.
This can lead to lower energy bills, improved comfort, and a reduced carbon footprint.
Our windows are designed to meet the highest energy efficiency standards and can significantly reduce heat loss.
Do you offer custom-made windows?
We specialise in creating custom window solutions tailored to your specific needs.
Whether you have unique size requirements or need a bespoke design to match your home’s style, our team can create windows that fit perfectly.
What materials are available for your windows?
We offer windows in the following materials:
- Timber: Perfect for traditional homes and those seeking a natural, classic look.
- uPVC: Low-maintenance, cost-effective, and available in a variety of finishes.
- Aluminum: Sleek, modern, and highly durable, ideal for larger windows and contemporary designs.
Are your windows environmentally friendly?
Our windows are designed to be energy efficient, reducing your home’s overall carbon footprint.
We also use eco-friendly materials and manufacturing processes to minimise waste and environmental impact.
How long does the installation process take?
For most residential installations, we typically complete the window installation within 1–2 days.
However, larger projects, such as commercial installations or complex custom designs, may take longer. We’ll provide you with a clear timeline during your consultation.
Do you provide a warranty for your windows?
All of our windows come with a comprehensive warranty.
The specific terms of the warranty will depend on the type of window and the materials used, but typically our warranties cover defects in materials and craftsmanship for up to 10 years.
How do I maintain my windows?
Our windows are designed to be low maintenance.
For timber windows, we recommend occasional repainting or sealing to preserve the wood. uPVC and aluminum windows can be cleaned with mild soap and water.
Regular checks on hinges and seals will help ensure they remain in top condition.
Can you replace windows in historic or listed buildings?
We have extensive experience working with historic and listed buildings.
We offer custom window solutions that maintain the building’s original character while upgrading to modern, energy-efficient standards.
We also work closely with local authorities to ensure compliance with all relevant regulations.
What are the benefits of double and triple glazing?
Double and triple glazing significantly improves insulation, reduces noise, and enhances security.
Double glazing consists of two panes of glass, while triple glazing has three, providing even greater energy efficiency and soundproofing.
Both options are excellent for reducing energy costs and creating a more comfortable indoor environment.
