Holyport houses and what they tend to need
Holyport sits in Bray parish, about two miles south of Maidenhead, and its oldest buildings gather around the green. The George is a sixteenth-century inn that still has its brick brewhouse, and the Grade II listed real tennis court was built in 1889. Away from the green, the lanes out towards Moneyrow Green, Stud Green and Touchen End hold cottages, interwar and post-war family houses and later infill, with Green Belt fields on the village edge.
That variety shapes our advice. A detached 1960s house usually wants a straight swap into modern uPVC windows and doors. A brick cottage tends to look best with small cottage windows, often with glazing bars, in a woodgrain finish. Homes with angled fronts suit made-to-measure bay windows, and awkward openings in gables or extensions can take shaped windows such as arches or angled heads.
Double glazing in Holyport: window styles
- Casement windows: the familiar side-hung or top-hung opener, and the simplest way to replace tired frames.
- Flush casement: the opening sash closes level with the outer frame, a crisp look that echoes traditional joinery.
- Sash windows: for period elevations, read our page on uPVC sash windows.
- Tilt and turn windows: tilt inwards for secure ventilation or swing fully open for cleaning from inside, which helps on upper floors. Our tilt and turn windows page explains more.
We will confirm at survey which of these styles can be made in the Selecta range for your particular openings.
The frame system we use
Every uPVC frame we fit in the village is made from Selecta Advance 70, a 70mm profile. Ask us to confirm the chamber count, U-value and security rating for the exact window and glass combination on your quote, so you can compare like with like.
Warmth, quiet and peace of mind
Energy-efficient windows rely on the frame and the sealed unit working together. Our guide to energy-rated windows explains window energy ratings and what the letters mean. Triple glazing is worth discussing for a bedroom that faces north across open fields. The M4 passes just north of the village, so some households ask about sound-reducing windows with acoustic laminated glass. Other glass options include obscure patterns for bathrooms and toughened safety glass at low level. Window security comes from multi-point locking, internal glazing beads and lockable handles.
Where a listed cottage cannot take new frames, secondary glazing fitted inside the original windows cuts draughts and noise without altering the outside.
From white to anthracite grey
White is still the most common choice, but grey, black and woodgrain foils are requested more and more, and a darker frame can sit well against old brick. Browse our window colours page, then ask us which finishes suit your chosen style.
Front doors, back doors and garden doors
uPVC doors are a practical, low-maintenance option for side and back doors, while many owners choose composite doors for the front because of their solid feel and timber-like grain. Our front doors page shows panel designs and glazing. For the garden, French doors open fully from the middle, patio doors slide to save floor space, and a stable door split across its width suits a farmhouse kitchen. Door security comes down to multi-point locks and anti-snap cylinders, and we can talk through smart locks if you would like keyless entry.
Repair or replace?
A misted sealed unit or a stiff hinge can sometimes be fixed on its own. When frames are draughty, discoloured or failing at the corners, replacement usually makes more sense, and we will say which applies when we visit. General figures are on our double glazing cost page, although we only quote after measuring.
The Holyport conservation area
The Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead has designated Holyport as a conservation area, and Bray Village has its own. If your house is listed or sits inside either boundary, check with the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead before changing the look of windows or doors. Our notes on planning permission for replacement windows set out the general rules.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need permission to replace windows in the Holyport conservation area?
It depends on the house. Flats, listed buildings and homes where permitted development rights have been removed need consent, and a conservation area can bring extra controls on how a front elevation looks. Before ordering, check with the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead. We can supply drawings, profile details and colour samples to help with any application.
Which uPVC windows suit a cottage near Holyport green?
Small-paned cottage windows or flush casements in a woodgrain foil usually look most at home beside old brick. Glazing bars can be added to echo traditional proportions. If the cottage is listed, new frames may not be allowed, and secondary glazing fitted on the inside is often the sensible alternative.
How quickly can you fit new windows in Holyport?
Our lead times run from 10 days once sizes and choices are confirmed. Because the workshop in Fifield is roughly a mile from the village, travelling adds almost nothing to a job, and a typical house is usually fitted in a few days. We agree a date with you once the order is placed.
Can new glass help with noise from the M4?
Yes, it can make a real difference. Acoustic laminated glass, combined with well-sealed frames and different pane thicknesses, reduces road hum noticeably, especially in bedrooms facing the motorway. We look at which rooms are affected during the survey and suggest glass to suit, rather than upgrading every window by default.
Do you offer timber windows for older Holyport homes?
No, we do not make or fit timber windows or doors. For a timber look, we offer uPVC windows with woodgrain foils and composite doors with a grained finish. Both need far less upkeep than painted wood. Where a listed building must keep timber, secondary glazing can improve comfort without touching the originals.
