Mr & Mrs Hills
Mr & Mrs Hills have lived in their home for 5 years, the house in Hampshire dates back to the 1850's.
"The property had an extension added 30 years ago and the previous owners did not notice that many of the windows weren't up to scratch. Some of the windows were repairable while others needed replacing. Our builder sought to repair the windows that needed attention, the builder was also tasked with researching appropriate replacements and recommend Timber Windows Southern".
Mr Hills also states "We were familiar with Timber Windows, having taken a flyer at the Hampton Court show previously".
Using engineered timber keeps the beautiful and tactile qualities of traditional wood but avoids the innate expansion and contraction issues that can occur from using solid wood. Engineered (multi-layered) timber is created by layering wood sections, with the grain of one section being layered in the opposing direction to the grain of its neighbour. Cleverly layering in this manner ensures any movement caused by absorption of moisture is evened out.
This leads to stronger, longer lasting windows and doors. Making sure they stay a perfect fit-just as the day they were installed.
