Read MoreWhen it comes to choosing windows for your next construction project, engineered wood windows represent the perfect fusion of traditional aesthetics and modern innovation. At GB Joinery, we’ve witnessed firsthand how these sophisticated window solutions are revolutionising the building industry across Cheshire and the North West.
Our expertise in crafting bespoke engineered timber windows has given us unique insights into why they’re becoming increasingly popular among discerning contractors and homeowners alike.
Understanding Engineered Wood Windows: The Basics
Engineered wood windows are manufactured using multiple layers of timber, carefully selected and bonded together to create a stable, durable product that outperforms traditional solid wood windows in several key areas. The manufacturing process involves:
- Careful timber selection – Only the highest quality wood is chosen
- Strategic layering – Multiple wood layers are arranged for maximum stability
- Advanced bonding techniques – Using moisture-resistant adhesives
- Precision manufacturing – Computer-controlled cutting for perfect fits
Using engineered wood to create bespoke windows offers a wealth of benefits over traditional timber species.
The Superior Benefits of Engineered Timber Windows
One of the most significant advantages of engineered wood windows is their exceptional stability. Unlike traditional timber windows, engineered variants are less prone to warping and twisting and more resistant to moisture damage. They are better at maintaining their shape in varying weather conditions, perfect for any British home or business.
Engineered timber is also an eco-friendly option. At GB Joinery, we’re committed to sustainable practices, which is why we champion engineered wood windows as an eco-friendly choice. Engineered timber windows provide:
- Efficient use of timber resources
- Lower carbon footprint compared to uPVC alternatives
- Extended lifespan, reducing replacement frequency
At GB Joinery, we truly believe that engineered timber is the best choice for crafting sustainable and energy efficient windows. With our experience and expertise, we now use Accoya as our engineered timber of choice.
The Accoya Advantage

- 50-year above-ground guarantee

Accoya is made from fast-growing, sustainably sourced timber. The modification process (acetylation) is non-toxic and adds no harmful substances to the wood. This makes Accoya an environmentally friendly window material option.
Energy Efficiency and Cost Benefits
Investing in engineered wood windows offers significant long-term benefits. Engineered wood windows provide excellent thermal insulation properties. This enables them to help with reduced energy bills through better heat retention.
Over time, engineered timber windows require lower maintenance levels than other timber types. This means that you’ll make significant savings on the upkeep of your windows. They can also add value to a property’s market price.
Design Flexibility and Aesthetic Appeal
Our engineered wood windows can be customised to suit any architectural style. Whether you want a traditional heritage style window or something to suit a more contemporary property, we’ve got you covered.
Engineered timber windows can be specified in a wide range of finishes and colour and with various glazing options to choose from. We also offer bespoke sizing to fit any project requirements including unusually shaped windows such as arches and oversized designs.
