Are Your Windows Costing You More Than You Think?
If your home has single-glazed, timber, or older aluminium windows, you might be dealing with some of these issues.
Cold Drafts & Heat Loss
Old single-pane windows let the cold in and your heating bills up. Double glazing keeps your home at a comfortable temperature year-round.
Street Noise Keeping You Awake
Traffic, neighbours, barking dogs. Double glazed windows reduce outside noise by up to 70%, giving you the peace you deserve.
Rising Energy Bills
Poorly insulated windows are costing you hundreds each year. Our windows pay for themselves through lower heating and cooling costs.
Condensation & Mould
Moisture buildup damages frames and creates health issues. Double glazing eliminates condensation problems at the source.
Outdated Appearance
Old timber or aluminium frames date your home. Modern slim-profile windows add value and street appeal instantly.
Hard to Clean & Maintain
Painted timber needs constant upkeep. Our aluminium frames are virtually maintenance-free and look great for decades.

Window Replacement in Kew: What Inner East Homeowners Need to Know
Kew is one of Melbourne's most prestigious inner east suburbs, home to some of the city's finest Federation, Edwardian, and inter-war homes on large, established blocks. The suburb sits within the City of Boroondara, an area with some of Melbourne's highest rates of renovation investment, and window replacement is consistently one of the most impactful upgrades Kew homeowners undertake.
Window Society works regularly across Kew and the surrounding Boroondara corridor. We understand the expectations that come with the area and the specific challenges that Kew's older housing stock presents.
Why Kew Homes Need Thermally Broken Double Glazing
Kew's housing stock is dominated by large period homes, many of which were built before thermal performance was a design consideration. Original timber sash windows, single-glazed aluminium replacements, and poorly sealed frames are common across the suburb, and the larger the home, the more acutely these deficiencies are felt in heating bills, comfort, and condensation.
Kew also sits within Melbourne's inner east, an area that experiences genuine seasonal temperature extremes. Winters are cold enough to make single-glazed rooms feel like they're open to the outside. Summers push heat through west and north-facing glass that air conditioning struggles to compensate for without the right glazing specification.
Thermally broken double glazing changes the equation on both fronts. U-values between 1.6 and 2.4 W/m²K, compared to around 6.0 for standard single glazing, mean dramatically less heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. For Kew's large period homes with substantial glazing areas, the difference in heating and cooling costs is material, not marginal.
Heritage and Period Home Window Replacement in Kew
Kew has one of the highest concentrations of heritage-listed residential properties in Melbourne. Many of the suburb's most notable streets fall within Heritage Overlay areas, and changes to street-facing facades, including window replacement, may require planning approval from Boroondara City Council.
This is not a reason to avoid window replacement. It's a reason to work with a supplier who understands the process. Window Society has experience working on heritage-overlay properties across Kew and the broader Boroondara area. We can advise from the outset on what is likely to require a planning permit and what can proceed without one, and we work with heritage architects where council requires their involvement.
Thermally broken aluminium in slim profiles is well suited to Kew's period homes. The range of powder coat finishes available, including off-whites, creams, charcoals, and heritage bronzes, allows new windows to sit within the original building fabric without looking like a replacement. Proportions matter in period homes, and our slim-profile systems respect them.
New Build and Extension Projects in Kew
Kew is an active market for high-end architectural extensions and new builds on subdivided lots. Homeowners investing in substantial additions to Federation homes, or building new on Kew's generous blocks, need a window supplier who can work accurately from architectural drawings and deliver consistently across a full project scope.
Our SoTherm systems are specified by boutique builders and architects across Boroondara on new build and extension projects ranging from single-room additions to full architectural new builds. Shop drawings are provided for builder and certifier review, and our 9 to 12 week manufacturing lead time allows for accurate programming within construction schedules.
Window Replacement Costs in Kew
Whole-home window replacement for a typical Kew home ranges from $30,000 to $120,000 for supply and install, reflecting the suburb's larger-than-average home sizes and the higher specification requirements that typically come with them. Heritage projects, homes with significant glazing areas, or architectural extensions with custom requirements will sit above this range.
Every project is custom-quoted based on a free on-site assessment. Window Society assesses your existing windows, discusses what's driving your decision, and provides a straight view of the right specification and cost before you commit to anything. For a full breakdown of what affects double glazing costs across Melbourne, see our double glazing Melbourne guide.
