If you own a home in regional Victoria—in places like Ballarat, Daylesford, Creswick, Horsham or even the Victorian Alpine region—you likely understand the charm of a heritage home. But alongside that character often comes outdated windows that are draughty, noisy, and inefficient.
Townsend Joinery, based in Ballarat, specialises in heritage window renovations using handcrafted double, triple glazed timber sash windows.
These beautifully made upgrades retain the original style of your home while delivering the modern comfort and performance today’s homeowners need.
Why Replace Your Old Windows?
1. Better Energy Efficiency & Comfort
The double-glazed timber sash windows installed by Townsend Joinery help keep your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer. That means lower energy bills and a more comfortable living space—perfect for the changing climate across western Victoria.
2. Reduced Noise, Greater Peace
With modern glazing and traditional craftsmanship, outdoor noise is greatly reduced. Whether you’re living in the quiet streets of Daylesford or on a main road in Ballarat, these windows offer a more peaceful home environment.
3. Authentic Craftsmanship
Every window is made by hand using traditional joinery methods at Townsend’s Ballarat workshop. Their experienced team recreates or upgrades existing designs with accuracy—preserving the integrity of your period home while giving you modern benefits.
4. Trusted by Builders & Renovators
Whether you’re a builder managing a full renovation in Creswick, or a homeowner in Horsham doing a single-room upgrade, Townsend Joinery is trusted across the region for their precision and attention to detail in Ballarat joinery work.
