The Painting Process of Timber Windows

November 28, 2017/in Frontpage Article, Images, News /by James Spraget

Timber Windows are preserved, painted and finished in 5 stages:

Stage 1) The first Chemical preservation stage is completed by direct dipping of the timber window into the preservative solution to protect against moisture absorption.

Stage 2) The second Chemical preservation stage is completed by direct dipping of the timber window into the preservative solution to protect against fungi, pests and mould.

Stage 3) Primer and Undercoats are applied.

Stage 4) First top Coat is machine sprayed to frame.

Stage 5) Top Coat is machine sprayed onto the frame.

The process of “Dipping”

Dipping

The Dipping process consists of simply immersing the wood in a bath of creosote or other preservative for a few seconds or minutes. Similar penetrations to that of brushing and spraying processes are achieved. It has the advantage of minimizing hand labour. It requires more equipment and larger quantities of preservative and is not adequate for treating small lots of timber. Usually the dipping process is useful in the treatment of window sashes and doors. Treatment with copper salt preservatives is no longer allowed with this method.

Our Colour Palette

Here at Timber Windows Direct we use the Classic RAL colour chart.

RAL is the most popular Central European Colour Standard used today, The colours are standard for use in architecture, construction, industry and road safety.

RAL is a colour matching system used in Europe that is created and administrated by the German RAL gGmbH^[1] (RAL non-profit LLC), which is a subsidiary of the German RAL Institute. In colloquial speech RAL refers to the RAL Classic system, mainly used for varnish and powder coating but nowadays there are reference panels for plastics as well. Approved RAL products are provided with a hologram as of early 2013 to make unauthorised versions difficult to produce. Imitations may show different hue and colour when observed under various light sources.

Obtaining a quote for Timber Windows has never been easier.

The old method of contacting a window company to attend your property and measure up whist providing you there highly polished sales pitch is now redundant in our opinion!

Online sales of everything has taken a huge leap in recent years and buying timber windows is no different.

When customers start their journey for purchasing windows they generally have a very good idea as to which windows they want to buy.

We believe that it is not necessary to attend people’s property and present the highly polished sales pitch in order to put pressure on people to buy windows and doors.

Timber Windows Online

Here at Timber Windows Direct we started sales via EBay and have grown into a very respectable online business.

Customers can roughly measure up their own windows to provide us rough measurements to quote them on – we will then attend the property and complete a full window survey to ensure the production measurements are correct.

This process removes the pressurised sales techniques that some companies use.

www.timberwindows-direct.co.uk provides many photos of our completed projects and the various types of windows that are available to the customer.

We are more than happy for our potential customers to come and see us and view our windows prior to placing an order as we are fully aware that some people wish to see the finished product prior to committing to an order, we are based in Bracknell Berkshire so please come and see us if you wish?

If you genuinely feel you need to have someone attend your property and conduct a full window survey then please get in touch and we will arrange for someone to attend and measure up but rest assured it will come with help and recommendations but no polished sales pitch!
