The online-based, family-run firm has said that it has seen strong sales during the winter, when other window companies were anticipating a dip in sales.

“The timber window market is expanding rapidly in the face of consumer demand but the growth of TimberWindows.com is unprecedented,” said managing director Chris Brunsdon.

“Our unique engineered timber window system allows the home owner to get a beautiful timber product without traditional maintenance costs.”

The company’s range of engineered windows and doors are manufactured in eastern Europe and offer all the best characteristics of PVCu windows, according to TimberWindows.com.

Mr Brunsdon added that this is allowing the company to offer a product that is “completely new” and that “homeowners love it”.
