Timber windows vs PVCu windows

If you’re looking to replace your old windows, our timber alternative or PVCu windows could be the best fit for your property.

We know how important it is to choose the right style of window for your Derby home, whether you want to accentuate the traditional aesthetic or add a classic style to your home, Trade Windows Derby is here to help.

Timber alternative windows

If you’re looking for the timber aesthetic to transform your home, why not try our timber alternative windows. These windows are perfect for traditional properties wanting to uphold the charm of their home, whilst better insulating it from the weather. They also look great on more modern homes. At Trade Windows Derby, our timber alternative windows are maintenance free and have excellent energy efficiency. Timber windows require a lot of upkeep as the wood can rot or split, and will need sanding and repainting multiple times during its lifetime. Timber alternative windows provide you with the traditional beauty of timber windows, but with all the modern benefits of PVCu windows.

Trade Windows Derby offer a choice of two configurations for our timber alternative windows. The flush sash style often suits older, more traditional properties. It imitates the design of storm sash windows to give the home a more authentic look. For more modern properties or homes wanting a more contemporary feel, casement windows are the perfect choice. Their slimline frames provide a sleek overall look.

Choose from 30 frame colours and woodgrain finishes to create the ideal look for your home. Our woodgrain finishes give your windows a real wood finish, perfect for creating a completely authentic style.

Tilt and Turn windows

Our tilt and turn windows provide you with the flexibility to choose how you would like to ventilate your home. The window can be tilted inwards with an opening at the top, or opened inwards from hinges at the side. This variety enables you to ventilate your home, even in winter, without opening your window too far to let the draughts in.

Casement windows

Casement windows are a classic choice of window as they compliment any home. They have slimmer frames, which maximises the glass area, allowing more natural light to flood into your home. They are available with various configurations. You can choose whether we fit the hinges at the top, bottom, or side of the window, depending on which way you want your windows to swing open.

Bay and Bow windows
