All of our hardwood windows are made to measure, using Sapele. Sapele is a stunningAfrican hardwood that is a reddish-brown wood and is very similar to Mahogany originating from Central & West Africa. It is one of the finest grades of Hardwood available and is the most popular of African hardwood species. Offering great strength, colour and durability, this beautiful hardwood lends perfectly to any window thanks to its natural resistance to the elements. So it will look just as beautiful years from now as it does the day we install it!

Your front door is the first thing people see when they visit your home, so it's important that it makes a good impression. A stylish door also ensures that you feel welcome and relaxed when entering your property after a hard day at work, so why not make the choice to upgrade. Here at James Birkett Construction Ltd, we have the front doors and bifold doors you need for your home in Edinburgh, Livingston or Lothians, and they can instantly improve your home's style, security and energy efficiency.

With top-quality hardwood frames and market-leading Vista Therm Elite sealed units, our bi-folding doors are a cut above the average.

These impressive and stylish patio doors allow natural light to stream in to your property, making the room appear larger and airier. When open, the doors fold back onto themselves, giving you more space both inside and out - the perfect solution for a sunny terrace or garden!

With a natural strength and beauty, timber doors are a popular choice amongst property owners - and it's not hard to see why. Providing high levels of durability and weather resistance without compromising on style, our bespoke timber doors make a fantastic addition to any home or business.

It will then be fitted by our expert team as well, for a product and service that just cannot be matched. Bespoke solid hardwood door built in the traditional way and fully factory finished in high performance Teknos paint system and utilising top quality hardware from Coastal Group for performance, aesthetics and function.

Some people argue that no material is more stylish than genuine hardwood, such as oak and timber, which is why it's a popular choice for new door installations. However, hardwood doors are usually rather costly and difficult to maintain, and because they can warp and discolour easily, they often don't last very long. Fortunately, composite doors from Edinburgh appear almost indistinguishable from the real thing, and the benefits of such doors extend far beyond that. At JBC, we're one of Edinburgh's leading home improvement companies thanks to the experience and skills of our team as well as our commitment to exceeding customer expectations.

While you may not be permitted to install double glazing if you live in a period property or a conservation area, many homes across Edinburgh and Glasgow do not require permission to install secondary windows.

JBC are a professional friendly company to deal with and I can't praise them highly enough. I recently had JBC to my home to install a new oak staircase and its magnificent!
