New timber windows bring warmth, character and a real lift in kerb appeal to any home. And the first question people usually ask us is: how much do they cost? Timber double glazed windows typically cost between £350 and £750 per window, depending on the window size, the type of wood and the glazing specification you choose.
Every window we build is made to measure, so your quotation reflects your exact requirements rather than a fixed, off-the-shelf price. Bespoke sizing doesn’t cost extra on its own; prices rise when a shape is unusual or an opening is oversized. Here are the five factors that matter most:
| What affects the price | Guide price impact |
|---|---|
| Window size | From around £350 for smaller windows up to £750 for larger windows |
| Type of wood | Hardwoods such as oak, idigbo and sapele carry a higher price than softer, less durable timbers |
| Glazing: double or triple | Double glazing is our standard specification; triple glazing costs more because of the extra pane of glass and gas fill |
| Window style | A casement window generally costs less than a sash window or a bay window |
| Unusual shapes or oversized openings | Complex shapes and larger-than-usual openings cost more to engineer and fit |
At Windows & Doors UK we manufacture every timber window to order in our own British joinery. You can see our full guide prices on our window prices page. This guide covers realistic budgeting for homeowners planning a window replacement, along with how timber compares to uPVC and aluminium.
Our casement windows suit period properties and new builds alike. Straightforward to manufacture, they sit at the more affordable end of timber window costs and still include A++ rated energy efficiency and multi-point locking as standard.
A timber sash window, including the traditional box sash and the modern sliding sash, involves more complex joinery and mechanisms. This means a higher cost than an equivalent casement window. Wooden sash windows remain the natural choice for period properties, where planning conditions require a historically accurate design.
A bay window combines several window units into one structure. The overall price reflects the number of panes, the frame material and the complexity of installation, particularly on upper floors.
Some suppliers offer softwood windows at a lower price point, but we build every window from 100% hardwood for strength and longevity. We work with three main species:
uPVC windows and aluminium frames often cost less to buy than hardwood windows, but they can’t match the craftsmanship of a hand-finished timber window, and that gap shows over the working life of a window.
Timber frames offer:
According to the Energy Saving Trust, double glazing typically lasts 20 to 35 years. That means plenty of homes are due an upgrade, even where double glazing is already fitted. New A-rated glazing cuts draughts and heat loss. A well-made timber frame adds further insulation on top, so it’s a saving worth building into your budget.
