Draughty, swollen or badly fitting windows make a house harder to heat and harder to enjoy. Our timber windows are made by hand in our Kent workshop and fitted by our own installers, so the character of a Sevenoaks home stays exactly as it should be. They open smoothly, seal tightly and keep their finish for years. Arrange a free survey with us and see the difference proper joinery makes.
Sevenoaks has Tudor cottages, Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and post war family homes, and none of them suit an off the shelf window. We measure every opening on site, then draw the sightlines, glazing bars and mouldings to sit correctly within your elevation. Each frame is cut, jointed and finished by our own craftsmen in Kent. You deal with the same family run team from the first visit to the final adjustment.
Slow Grown Hardwood and Accoya – Naturally rot and fungi resistant timber from FSC and PEFC certified merchants, chosen for stability so frames stay square through wet winters and hot summers.
Factory Applied Teknos Coatings – Sprayed under controlled conditions in the colour you choose, giving a harder wearing, more even finish than painting on site ever achieves.
Pilkington Glazing – Double glazed units with thermal insulation and solar control, plus acoustic and self cleaning options for homes on busier roads near the town centre.
Coastal Ironmongery – Multi point locking, secure fasteners and period correct handles and stays, so your windows meet modern security standards without looking modern.
How long will timber windows last?
Properly made hardwood or Accoya windows last for decades, far longer than most replacements fitted in the last thirty years. Ours are built with drained, ventilated joints and fully factory finished, which is where longevity is won or lost.
How often do timber windows need repainting?
Far less often than people expect. A factory applied Teknos coating typically needs attention only after several years, and recoating is a wash down and a fresh topcoat rather than stripping back to bare wood.
Can you fit new windows in a conservation area or listed building?
Yes. We have long experience with planning approval, building control and listed building consent across Kent, and we design frames to satisfy conservation officers while still giving you modern glazing and security.
Are timber windows as warm as uPVC?
Timber performs very well as an insulator in its own right, and paired with modern double glazed units our windows deliver strong thermal efficiency. You gain the performance without losing the proportions that suit an older property.
Can you match the windows we already have?
We can. Where you are replacing part of a property, we record the profiles, bar widths and glazing details of the existing windows so the new ones read as a set rather than an obvious addition.
