Windows And Doors in Poynton

What kind of homes are in Poynton?

Poynton grew from a coal-mining village into a popular commuter town between Stockport and Macclesfield. Most homes date from the 1950s to the 1980s: semis, dormer bungalows and detached houses on estates either side of London Road North and Park Lane, with older cottages in Higher Poynton near the Middlewood Way and the Macclesfield Canal.

Do I need planning permission for new windows in Poynton?

Much of Poynton is post-war housing with no special controls, so like-for-like replacement windows and doors are usually permitted development.

Choosing windows and doors for a Poynton home

Poynton is mostly post-war family housing, with semis, dormer bungalows and detached homes from the 1950s to the 1980s. Many still have their first or second set of uPVC windows, which have often lost their seals and mist up. A full replacement with modern A-rated casements, a new composite front door and a patio or bifold door at the back is one of the most common jobs we quote here. In Higher Poynton, older stone and brick cottages near the Middlewood Way suit flush casements with a more traditional look.

What we plan for in Poynton

Dormer bungalows have their own challenges: dormer windows are hard to reach, and the frames often need making to slightly unusual sizes. We measure every opening individually. Newer homes at Woodford Garden Village are well built but may come with basic doors, so a composite front door upgrade is popular there.

In Poynton, we often replace windows in homes that have already been extended, so the new windows need to match across old and new parts of the house. We make every frame to measure in one colour and style. Detached homes towards Adlington and Woodford Road often add aluminium bifolds or sliding doors to the garden, and composite front doors in grey are a popular choice.
