Why Choose Wooden Windows?
-
Increase the Value of your Property
Natural timber windows have a luxurious beauty that other frame materials continue to try to mimic. With durability and style in equal measure, wooden window frames can help to increase the value of your home.
-
Naturally Insulated
Let it be no secret that wood is a great natural insulator. Our A-rated wooden double-glazed windows hold more heat in winter and help keep the cold from leaving in the summer months.
-
FSC-Certified
Wooden windows are the very definition of sustainability in home improvement. We help promote responsible management of the world’s forests by only using lumber certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). This means the trees felled in making your replacement windows are always replanted to replace those harvested.
-
Reduce Noise Pollution
Safe and Sound noise-reducing glazing is available on our timber casement and flush window designs. So, if you live on a busy road or near a train line, reduce the outside noise with A-rated replacement wooden windows that provide a sound protection level of 36db.
-
Secure
Our wooden casement and flush casement window locks operate an inline locking system that clamps to plates fitted on the timber window frame. Combined with key-locking handles, glazing beads to prevent glass removal and anti-jemmy protection, this prevents unwelcome visitors from trying to gain entry to your home.

Why Choose Anglian?
Choice of Softwood or Hardwood
While the softwood European Pine is our standard option, there is a further choice of two hardwood window options. These timbers are known for their strength, density and ideally suited for exterior joinery.
Long-lasting Colour Finish
During the manufacturing process, we apply three coats of microporous water-based paint to our timber windows, this is the equivalent of applying 15 coats with a brush. The paint allows the wood to breathe over time without cracking or flaking. We are so confident in this process that, much like our wooden doors, our wooden windows come with a 30-year guarantee against rot and fungal attacks.
Wood Window Alliance Standards
Anglian wooden windows are made to the Wood Window Alliance (WWA) standard, which means they have a long life if looked after with care. The projected service life is between 56 to 65 years.

Wooden Window FAQs
How much do wooden windows cost?
While replacement wooden windows are generally more expensive than uPVC or aluminium frames, the durability of timber over time makes them a cost-effective choice in the long run if properly cared for. The cost of our double glazed wooden windows varies in line with the style, size and species of hardwood or softwood you choose. Softwoods grow very fast, which makes them the less pricey option compared to hardwoods which grow slowly.
How long do wooden windows last?
When properly cared for, wooden windows can last a lifetime. Our double glazed wooden windows are manufactured to the Wood Window Alliance (WWA) standards. This means they have a projected service life of between 56 to 65 years if looked after. That’s twice as long as window frames made from uPVC.
What’s the best type of wood for windows?
Hardwood is often considered the best choice due to its resilience against the harsher UK climates. Types of hardwood like Sapele and Meranti (also known as Majau) can handle temperature and humidity variations well while also having a good durability rating. Pine is a stable and dense softwood types that is also good for use in window manufacturing. For added protection, we use a double vacuum preservative treatment on our softwood windows.
Are wooden windows better than uPVC?
Wooden windows are one of the best eco-friendly options. Compared to uPVC, wooden windows can have close to double the lifespan and give a look and feel that no other material can match. uPVC is the best option for those looking to get the most affordable choice that saves money on heating bills, while timber windows are popular for their looks, insulating properties and sustainability.
Are wooden windows cheaper than uPVC?
uPVC is often the most affordable option when you’re looking to replace your windows, in comparison to aluminium or timber frames. Anglian wooden windows are made of sustainably-sourced timber from the FSC. The precise joinery of their design makes them an enticing long-lasting investment worth consideration.
