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Outdated Appearance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.

Solid aluminium with thermal break insulation built through its core to prevent cold travelling through the frame. Strong, zero maintenance, lasts a lifetime.
Verdict - Clear winner, every day of the week. Ticks all the boxes. Thermally Broken Aluminium is universally accepted as the superior window system for high end construction.
Frames so slim they nearly disappear. What architects specify for ultra-luxury modern builds. Can become pricey.
Verdict - Most impressive looking ultra-slim window system in the world. Only if budget allows.
Plastic frames. Insulate well, but Australian sun is hard on plastic. Even if it's "UV Stabilised". Large windows, sliding doors and bi-folds flex with direct sun and heat, requiring adjustment and maintenance way more often than promised.
Verdict - Works well for Passive House types and smaller size Tilt & Turn windows. Not recommended for large sliding doors, bi-folds, floor to ceiling windows and doors.
Semi-decent builder-grade aluminium, but no insulation inside. The cold walks straight through.
Verdict - The builder’s choice to build and sell. Not recommended for homeowners to live with.
Beautiful, insulates very well. Would be rated higher if the maintenance, swelling, staining and sticking wasn't a concern.
Verdict - Only if you'll truly keep up the maintenance.
One thin skin of metal. Zero insulation. Super cheap product. Used by volume builders.
Verdict - Should be illegal.

Custom Windows in Oakleigh: What Homeowners and Builders Need to Know
Oakleigh sits within the City of Monash and is one of Melbourne's most active townhouse and custom-build corridors. Post-war brick homes on generous blocks are being renovated, extended, and subdivided at a steady pace, and window replacement is one of the first decisions homeowners and builders face on almost every project.
Window Society works regularly across Oakleigh and the surrounding Monash corridor, supplying custom manufactured aluminium windows and doors to homeowners, builders, and developers who need every opening measured and made to fit, not picked off a shelf.
Why Oakleigh's Post-War Brick Homes Need Thermally Broken Double Glazing
Much of Oakleigh's housing stock was built in the post-war decades, when single-glazed aluminium and steel-framed windows were standard and thermal performance was not a design consideration. These homes hold heat poorly in winter and let it build up fast in summer, and the original windows are often the single biggest source of draughts and condensation in the house.
Melbourne's inner and middle south east experiences genuine seasonal extremes, and Oakleigh's brick homes feel both ends of it. Cold air moves straight through single-glazed sashes in winter, while summer sun through west-facing glass can overwhelm air conditioning that wasn't sized for the heat load the original windows let in.
Thermally broken double glazing addresses both problems directly. U-values between 1.6 and 2.4 W/m²K, compared to around 6.0 for standard single glazing, mean substantially less heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. For a typical Oakleigh renovation, that translates into a noticeably more even, comfortable home year round.
Custom Windows and Triple Glazing for Oakleigh's Townhouse and Custom-Build Market
Oakleigh's townhouse developments and custom-build projects rarely use standard window sizes. Every opening is different, driven by the architect's plans, the site's orientation, and the way each dwelling on the block has been designed. This is exactly why Window Society manufactures every window and door to measure, rather than supplying from fixed stock sizes.
For homeowners and builders who want to push performance further, we also supply triple glazed windows in Oakleigh. Triple glazing adds a third pane and a second sealed air gap, lowering U-values further than double glazing alone and reducing noise transfer, a genuine consideration on Oakleigh's busier arterial roads. It suits south-facing rooms, homes near traffic corridors, and any project where the brief calls for the highest achievable thermal and acoustic performance.
Whether the project calls for double or triple glazing, every frame is built to the exact opening, in a profile and powder coat finish that suits the home, not a generic catalogue size.
Working With Builders on Oakleigh Townhouse and Extension Projects
With so much townhouse construction and multi-dwelling development running through Oakleigh, Window Society works directly with builders and architects as well as homeowners. We can work from architectural drawings across a full site, provide shop drawings for builder and certifier review, and deliver consistent specifications across multiple dwellings on the one project.
Our SoTherm systems are specified on new build and extension projects across the Monash area, from single-dwelling renovations to multi-unit developments. A 9 to 12 week manufacturing lead time allows builders to program window delivery accurately against the rest of the build.
Window Replacement Costs in Oakleigh
Whole-home window replacement for a typical Oakleigh home ranges from $25,000 to $80,000 for supply and install, with the final figure depending on the number of openings, chosen frame profile, and whether double or triple glazing is specified.
Every project is custom-quoted after a free on-site assessment. We measure your existing openings, talk through what's driving the project, and give you a straight view of the right specification and cost before you commit to anything. For more on what drives double glazing costs across Melbourne, see our double glazing Melbourne guide.
