Realistic Woodgrain Finishes
Choose from an extensive range of authentic woodgrain finishes including Irish Oak, Golden Oak, Rosewood, and many more, each capturing the natural beauty of real timber.
Modern Performance Standards
Benefit from superior thermal efficiency, weatherproofing, and security features that surpass traditional timber, all while maintaining authentic period aesthetics.
Cost-Effective Beauty
Achieve the prestigious look of timber windows at a fraction of the cost, with none of the ongoing maintenance expenses associated with real wood.
Wood effect windows have a uPVC core with a textured foil outer finish applied in the factory. The foil replicates the grain, texture, and colour of natural timber species such as Irish Oak, Golden Oak, and Rosewood. The uPVC profile provides all the structural and thermal performance of standard uPVC windows, while the foil delivers the aesthetic of real wood.
Modern woodgrain foiling technology is highly convincing — the grain pattern, depth, and colour of today's wood effect windows are a significant improvement on earlier products. Many homeowners and neighbours find it difficult to distinguish them from real timber at a normal viewing distance, especially in popular finishes like Irish Oak and Rosewood.
It depends on the specific conservation area and Sunderland City Council's local design guidance. Some conservation areas accept high-quality wood effect uPVC windows as a sympathetic alternative to timber, while others require like-for-like timber replacement. We recommend checking with the local planning authority before ordering — our team can advise based on your property's location.
Wood effect uPVC windows will not rot, warp, or crack; they never need painting, staining, or seasonal treatment; they are more thermally efficient than older timber frames; and they come with our 10-year guarantee. Real timber requires repainting or restaining every 3 to 5 years, is susceptible to rot if neglected, and is significantly more expensive to maintain over time.
No — wood effect windows are factory-finished and never need repainting or staining. The foil finish is integral to the frame and designed to retain its colour and appearance for decades. Maintenance is limited to occasional cleaning with warm soapy water, saving significant time and cost compared to real timber windows.
Wood effect finishes are available across our full range of uPVC window styles, including casement windows, vertical sliding sash windows, and tilt-and-turn windows. All come with the benefit of modern double glazing, giving you the period timber aesthetic with contemporary thermal performance throughout your Sunderland home.

Fantastic experience with Lee from Range Windows. Prompt efficient service, windows swiftly measured up and date of installation agreed. Call on the day of installation to confirm the time and Lee arrived as agreed. Fab installation and exceptionally happy with the product. Will definitely recommend.

Had a new door fitted by Range Windows and Doors today, door looks amazing and service was brilliant. Everything was all cleaned up after the job was finished too which was a bonus. Highly recommended.

Definitely recommend this company! Service is 5 star, they try to help any way they can. Fitting me in to fit a low profile door so my wheelchair could get in my new home. The door is easy to work, draft free and feels very secure and solid. A very caring genuine company which is hard to find nowadays.

Adam and Brad came early, on time and got to work straight away. They worked hard, fitting 3 new bedroom windows then a back door — all finished in the day. Every item was installed well. They cleaned up everything inside and out, taking all rubbish away with them. Thank you for your good work.

Within a day Adam came to the house for a free quote — no pressure, no rush. Very professional and we chose this company just from how Adam represented them. Lee measured everything up within days, giving honest advice where other companies were saying to replace everything. Outstanding service.

I couldn't recommend these guys enough! Service was spot on start to finish. Lee and the guys are so knowledgeable about their products, even dropping off brochures so I could make a decision in my own time. No pressured sales, just down to earth people. Adam and Brad fitted the door — so professional.
