Bespoke joinery, made for Bedford homes

Schnauber supplies and installs made-to-measure timber windows and doors in Bedford. If a replacement is intended to recover an older window pattern, gather photographs of the current opening and any earlier drawings you hold. A survey should establish what fits the house rather than presume that the latest replacement reflects its original design.

Bay windows need to be considered as an assembly. Send a photograph showing the roof, corner joints and internal boards as well as each opening light. Ask the quotation to identify which parts are being replaced and which are retained, including any work around the frame. This makes it easier to compare a bay quotation with a price for individual windows.

Choose from our timber sash windows, casement windows and Heritage Slimlite range. The survey records the details for your property before the final specification is agreed.

Before your survey

Planning your Bedford window project

Bedford Borough publishes a Bedford conservation map and separate maps for places such as Kempston and Biddenham. Check the relevant boundary and appraisal against the actual address before finalising external details.

Bedford Borough conservation maps and appraisals is the local reference for this check. For a listed building or an address with additional controls, confirm the proposed work with the relevant authority before placing an order.

Use the quote form below to tell us the address, the openings involved and any drawings or decisions you already hold. Please describe access and any original details you want retained. We can discuss the product options at survey stage; the quotation depends on the measured size, joinery, glazing, finish and fitting scope.

For another address, see our Stevenage service page or the full area list.

07Common Questions

Timber windows Bedford — FAQs

What should a Bedford bay-window enquiry include? +

Photograph the bay from outside and inside, including its corners and roof junction. Say whether the boards and surrounding finishes are to remain, and ask for the replacement scope to be itemised.

Can I use the same design as a neighbouring Bedford house? +

A neighbouring window is a useful reference photograph, but your own opening, building history and any permissions need checking. Ask for a measured proposal for your property rather than ordering from that photograph alone.

How do I request a timber window quote in Bedford? +

Use the existing quote form on this page or call 0800 061 4118. Include your postcode, the number of openings and the type of work. Schnauber offers a free survey and quotation; the price depends on the agreed specification.

Does a heritage window automatically meet planning requirements? +

No. The suitability of a window depends on the building, its details and any address-specific controls. Check the proposed design with the relevant authority before ordering where approval is needed.
