Ask Us

What is the life expectancy of wood-effect windows?

Unlike traditional timber windows of old, our modern wood-effect windows can last anywhere between 15-20 years on average. Our windows come backed with a 10-year guarantee.

Are wood-effect windows expensive?

No. Our wood-effect windows are manufactured in the same way as all our cost-effective uPVC windows, so are similarly priced.

Can wood-effect windows be used in conservation areas?

Usually. But it may depend on your local authority, as conservation areas have specific requirements based on individual locations. If you are unsure, our expert team can advise you further based on your specific circumstances.

In what areas do you install wood-effect windows?

At Tyneside Home Improvements, we install wood-effect windows across North East England and surrounding areas. We serve all the major cities in the area including Newcastle, Sunderland, Middlesbrough, and Durham. We also work extensively across all towns and villages in Northumberland, Tyne and Wear, North Yorkshire, and County Durham.
