Classic timber style. Modern performance

Timber Alternative Windows

Heritage Aesthetics, Maintenance-Free Living

At Burgess Windows and Doors, our timber alternative windows offer the charm and detail of traditional wooden frames — without the upkeep. These expertly crafted systems replicate the appearance of timber, right down to the woodgrain texture and mechanical joints, while delivering all the benefits of modern uPVC technology.

We supply and install windows from two leading British brands: Residence Collection and Evolution, known for their attention to detail, authenticity and outstanding performance. Whether you're restoring a period home or adding classic character to a new build, our timber alternative range offers the ideal solution.
