What are the Benefits of Timber Windows?

Timber is a high quality, natural insulator, and renewable resource which brings a multitude of positives to your home. It can play a significant role in adding warmth, security, character, and desirability to your home, and in turn add value.

As a building material, timber has been used for over 10,000 years and it’s clear to see why. It has an array of excellent characteristics, such as:

Its density brings sound insulating properties.
A sustainable choice of wood (when forested in a maintainable way).
Being incredibly durable – the fibre construction provides density and strength.
Providing robust and flexible insulation properties.
Being recyclable – locks in carbon during growth and is relatively free from polluting factors.
Its ease to repair, resulting in less full replacements (restoration is key).
Good material properties with a high strength to weight ratio.
When properly installed and treated, brings excellent protection against the elements.
