Timber Windows in Falmouth: measured on site, guaranteed ten years, backed by Cornwall Council-compliant paperwork.
What Cornwall Council rules mean for timber here
our conversations are usually about coatings and longevity, not u-values. That's the backdrop to every timber windows quote we produce for Falmouth, and it's why homeowners after honest advice and a finish that lasts tends to be the household we're sitting down with.
Distance matters when things need adjusting. At 84 miles from base, with Penryn 2 miles north-west and Truro 8 miles north, a return visit to Falmouth costs us half a morning — which is why we say yes to snagging.
The character of Falmouth — falmouth's mild but salty estuary climate means frame protection trumps thermal performance for most homeowners here — shapes every timber windows spec we write. Sightlines, colour, glazing-bar detail and reveal depth are all settled before a written price leaves our desk.
the A39 is the artery for this patch. It connects Falmouth to Penryn, Truro and our Cranbrook workshop 84 miles away, which keeps lead times on timber windows short and delivery days flexible.
Coverage from this quote radius reaches Penryn (2 mi north-west), Truro (8 mi north), Redruth (9 mi north-west), Helston (10 mi west), Camborne (11 mi west), giving us efficient runs whenever we're already on-site in Falmouth.
A typical run to Falmouth threads Penryn → Truro → Redruth → Helston, so if you're on one of those routes we can often combine visits and price accordingly.
Anthracite grey (RAL 7016) remains the default on newer Falmouth estates, with chartwell green gaining. We hold all three foils, so matching a TR11 estate pattern doesn't add a fortnight to your lead time.

Falmouth FAQs
Do you do much timber windows around TR11?
Constantly. Falmouth, Penryn and Truro form one of our busiest rounds, and timber windows is the bulk of it — typically triggered by salt deposits dulling sprayed and factory finishes alike.
Can you schedule student-let work between terms?
Yes — we book Penryn and Falmouth student-let respray work in the early-summer window every year.
Will your spray system stand up to the estuary salt?
Yes — we specifically chose a 2-pack system that's used in commercial marine cladding for exactly this exposure.
Do you work in the villages outside Falmouth?
Regularly — Penryn, Mawnan Smith and Mylor are all inside the normal Falmouth round, and none of them attract a distance charge from us.
Can you match what a neighbour in Falmouth already had done?
Yes — we keep colour and hardware records by address across TR11, so matching a previous Falmouth install is quick rather than guesswork.
Is timber windows worth it on a estuary-facing villas in Falmouth?
Usually, yes. A timber installation addresses salt deposits dulling sprayed and factory finishes alike directly, and on TR11 properties it avoids the disruption a full rebuild of the reveal would bring.
