About Us
About Our Company
We are a small local timber window company based at Thakeham in West Sussex, using the Mitre-Master TM jointing system. Our aim is to provide a friendly, efficient service, paying attention to detail, delivering on time and leaving our customers' property clean, tidy and enhanced not only in looks but value, security and weather tightness.
All of our men are employed by us – we do not sub-contract labour, which we feel enables our customers to have confidence in the men that carry out work in their homes. The manufacturing, painting and installation process for each individual job is carried out by the same team, thereby ensuring a quality product, well installed.
Chartwell Wooden Windows is a member of Fensa who monitor a selection of the windows and doors that we install to insure that they comply with British Standards.
We also offer all our customers an insurance backed guarantee provided by IWA and underwritten by Lloyds of London at no extra cost.
The Timber
All components are manufactured from either European Redwood to BS EN 942, BS 1186 Part 2 or West African Sapele from sustainable sources.
The Products
We can manufacture windows (classic casement and traditional sliding sash), doors and conservatories on a supply only or a supply and fit basis. We use high tech weather seals, double-glazing, multipoint locking and a factory, spray applied, micro-porous pain or stain – all as standard. We can produce windows that give the original appearance to a property and use sand, cement and plaster rather than trim to finish.
With regard to the colour – we can provide any colour paint that a customer requires and if they have a particular colour that they would like us to match, we are able to do this. We can also offer a dual colour option, i.e. paint on the inside and stain on the outside.
The micro-porous paints and stains used on our products provide a re-painting cycle of 7-10 years providing they are maintained by wiping with a damp cloth from time to time. We guarantee our products from major defects for 10 years.
Our Philosophy
We feel that by installing wooden windows and doors, we conserve the traditional look of customers' properties whilst also conserving energy by the introduction of double-glazing. Also, as with all timber products, the demand for wood encourages the planting of new forests, which not only beautify the landscape but emit oxygen as a natural process, obviously essential for the survival of living creatures on our planet. Forests also provide a habitat for wildlife and much needed employment for the local population in some third world countries.
