Timber Windows

What Timber Windows does

Timber Windows, trading as PWG Trading Ltd, is a UK specialist manufacturer and retailer of bespoke engineered timber windows and doors, operating within the Performance Timber Products Group. The company designs and supplies made-to-order timber windows (sash and casement variants), entrance doors (across multiple design families including Bardwell, Chadlington, Frenchay, Kingston and others), French doors, bi-fold doors, patio doors and stable doors, constructed from European Redwood, Meranti Hardwood or European Oak using multi-layer engineered sections that resist warping, twisting and swelling. Glazing options span ultra-slim 14mm krypton-filled units through to 24mm argon/krypton units, with internal beading and multi-point locking on door products, and factory-applied micro-porous three-coat paint or stain finishes (with Farrow & Ball complementary colours).

The business serves primarily mid-market UK residential customers — heritage property owners, listed-building owners in conservation areas, and self-build/renovation developers seeking authentic period designs with modern thermal and security performance. A specialised Timber Windows Listed sub-range is specifically engineered for planning authority approval in heritage and conservation contexts, featuring 22mm and 24mm true glazing bars and traditional putty glazing.

Revenue is generated one-window-and-door-at-a-time through a direct-to-consumer showroom-led sales model: Timber Windows operates more than 50 specialist local showrooms across England, Wales and the Channel Islands, staffed by consultative specialists who guide specification (style, timber species, glazing, ironmongery, colour) before quoting on bespoke made-to-order product. Sales include survey and installation services. Premium ironmongery partner Samuel Heath is embedded across the range, and marketing combines the Inspirations magazine, SEO, social media, selective print (e.g. Waitrose Food magazine), exhibitions (e.g. RHS Hampton Court), and word-of-mouth trade referrals to feed showroom conversion.
