Peace of mind guarantee
For four decades we’ve perfected the raw materials we buy and the joinery techniques we use to allow us to confidently offer ‘peace of mind’ guarantees to be proud of. All guarantees shown below are for timber windows & doors made using Accoya, in accordance with our maintenance guidelines.
Our Colours
Our paint comes from leading supplier Teknos, who have been producing it since 1948. Teknos have been working in collaboration with Accoya since 2008, making it the perfect combination for a long-lasting finish. All our windows & doors receive a three-coat professional spray finish before leaving our workshop.
We can match any RAL or Farrow & Ball colour, and we can dual-colour, giving a different appearance inside & outside.
Why Timber?
Did you know that 43% of uPVC is derived from petroleum, a finite resource that contributes significantly to the world’s carbon dioxide emissions?
In the face of a climate emergency, the need for sustainable, renewable, and fully recyclable building materials has never been more urgent.
By choosing windows and doors crafted from FSC-certified timber, you’re supporting responsibly managed forests that maintain a constant, renewable cycle of supply. Trees naturally absorb
around 25% of the carbon emissions produced by human activity. However, as they age, their ability to capture carbon decreases, so at this point, they’re transformed into Accoya, making room
for new, fast-growing trees that can take up the carbon-absorbing role.
Accoya is not just an environmentally friendly choice—it’s a groundbreaking one. Accredited by the FSC®, it’s the only construction material worldwide to earn Cradle to Cradle (C2C) Platinum certification® for Material Health.
Longevity
Hand-crafted wooden windows and doors are the result of skilled craftsmanship, not mass production. Each piece is meticulously created by professional, time-served joiners. Every mortice and tenon joint, coat of paint, and decorative moulding requires time and expertise to perfect. As a result, the initial cost of wooden windows and doors may be higher than uPVC or aluminium alternatives.
Durability
Our windows and doors offer outstanding resistance to insect attacks and damage. Thanks to Accoya’s unique properties it’s indigestible to a wide range of pests, including termites, creating a natural, highly effective barrier against infestations.
Energy Efficiency
With rising energy costs, energy efficiency has become a top priority for homeowners choosing new windows and doors. Whilst uPVC and aluminium systems are constantly being modified and adapted just to meet the UK’s increasingly stringent energy performance regulations, timber stands apart as a natural insulator, boasting low thermal transmittance and helping to retain warmth whilst keeping the cold out.
