Georgian Bar Windows in Kent
Run-through astragal bars with putty-line profiles — the detail conservation officers actually look for, rather than stick-on grids.
A well-made georgian bar windows in Kent should open with one hand, seal without slamming and need nothing more than a wash and an occasional inspection. That is the standard we work to.
Specified for Kent properties
- Micro-porous finishes that let the timber breathe rather than trapping moisture behind a hard film.
- FSC-certified hardwood with documented chain of custody, available on request for planning submissions.
- Factory-finished in controlled conditions — three coats minimum, fully cured before delivery.
- Warm-edge spacer bars as standard, which cut the cold bridge at the glass edge and reduce condensation.
- End-grain sealed at every cut before assembly — the single detail that decides whether joinery rots.
Choosing georgian bar windows for a property in Kent is mostly a question of substrate and detail. Get the timber and the sections right and the finish looks after itself for decades.

Questions
What sort of guarantee do you offer?
Ten years on the joinery and the manufacture, and the sealed units carry their own manufacturer's warranty. Accoya frames carry the 50-year above-ground timber warranty from the material supplier. All of it is confirmed in writing with the quotation.
Will the timber warp or stick?
Not if it is specified correctly. Sticking comes from moisture ingress into unsealed end grain, or from solid stock used where laminated sections were needed. Kiln-dried timber, sealed end grain, factory finishing and engineered sections on longer spans between them eliminate it.
Can you fit trickle vents?
Where Building Regulations require background ventilation, we design it into the head of the frame at manufacture. That looks far better and performs far better than a vent drilled through a finished frame on site.
Do you work on listed buildings?
Regularly. Listed building consent turns on detail — sightlines, glazing bar sections, opening method and glass type. We survey the existing joinery, record the profiles and produce drawings you can submit. We will not quote a detail we know will not pass.
How much maintenance do they need?
Far less than people expect. Wash the frames twice a year, inspect the finish annually, and expect to recoat exposed elevations every eight to ten years. Sheltered elevations often go considerably longer. Modern micro-porous coatings are a different product entirely from the gloss paints that gave timber its reputation.
