  • How do I maintain and care for my timber windows and doors?
    To ensure the longevity and beauty of your timber windows and doors, regular maintenance is key. We recommend cleaning them with a mild detergent and water solution using a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the timber finish. Additionally, it's important to inspect your windows and doors regularly for any signs of wear or damage, such as cracks, peeling paint, or water stains. Addressing any issues promptly can help prevent further damage and prolong the life of your timber products. Depending on the type of finish applied to your windows and doors, you may also need to reapply a protective coating or sealant every few years to maintain their appearance and durability. If you have any specific questions or concerns about caring for your timber windows and doors, our team is here to help.
  • What are the benefits of choosing timber over other materials like uPVC or aluminum?
    Opting for timber windows and doors offers several advantages over alternative materials like uPVC or aluminium.

It's a renewable resource that can be responsibly sourced from well-managed forests, making it a more eco-conscious option compared to non-renewable materials like uPVC or aluminium. Additionally, timber offers excellent thermal insulation properties, helping to regulate indoor temperatures and reduce energy consumption. This can result in lower heating and cooling costs over time, making timber windows and doors a cost-effective choice in the long run. Furthermore, timber is a durable and long-lasting material when properly maintained. With regular care and maintenance, timber windows and doors can withstand the test of time, outlasting many other materials. Lastly, timber products can add value to your property. The natural beauty and quality craftsmanship of timber windows and doors can enhance the overall appeal and resale value of your home. Overall, choosing timber over uPVC or aluminium offers a combination of aesthetic appeal, sustainability, energy efficiency, durability, and value for homeowners.
