Fully Sculptured Double Glazed Windows for Period Melbourne Homes

Melbourne is full of homes with character: Victorian terraces in the inner suburbs, Edwardian villas across the middle ring, federation cottages, and interwar bungalows. If your home is one of them and the original timber windows are failing, uPVC fully sculptured windows Melbourne homeowners are choosing let you upgrade the performance without losing the period detail that makes the house worth preserving.

The fully sculptured ovolo profile features rounded, decorative edges that closely replicate the curves found on traditional timber window frames. Where the fully chamfered profile is designed for contemporary homes with its flat, angular lines, the sculptured ovolo belongs on homes where the architecture has history. The curved glazing bead, the softened frame edges, and the depth of the profile all mirror what a well-crafted timber window looks like, without any of the maintenance timber demands.

The sculptured profile is available across all of Nu-Eco’s window types: awning, casement, tilt & turn, and double hung windows. Double hung with sculptured ovolo is a particularly popular combination for heritage homes, replicating the look of traditional sliding sash windows. The performance is identical to the chamfered range. The only difference is the aesthetic.

Every sculptured window is made to order as part of Nu-Eco’s double glazed windows in Melbourne range. Book a free measure and quote, or visit our Dandenong South showroom to see both profile styles side by side.

Why Choose Heritage Windows for Your Home?

Period homes across Melbourne are losing their original timber windows to rot, warping, and decades of deferred maintenance. Replacing them with flat, modern-looking frames changes the character of the house. The sculptured ovolo profile exists to solve that problem. Its rounded, decorative edges sit naturally alongside original period detailing: decorative cornices, ornate verandah posts, and arched doorways. For homes in heritage overlay areas, the sympathetic design helps maintain the streetscape character that councils and neighbours expect.

Nu-Eco’s sculptured windows are available in colours including rosewood and golden oak woodgrain finishes that closely replicate the look of stained or varnished timber from the street. The result is a window that looks like it belongs, performs like it was built this year, and never needs repainting.

Had Adam come up for a measure and quote. From the first phone call he was incredibly friendly and helpful. Answered all my numerous questions without hassle. He arrived on time for our appointment, did a comprehensive measure and spoke about the window design. He also had samples with him to showcase their product. No hard sell and had my quote later that day. I can't fault the customer service provided by Adam. Great assest to the company.

Everyone involved in this order was a pleasure to deal with. A salesman that didn't give me the hard sell and was happy to give me multiple options to mull over with no pressure. Office staff who addressed all my questions promptly. The installation crew who were very polite, always checked with me before making anything final, left the place clean and tidy. This is my second time using Nu-Eco and while I have no plans to ever move house again if it should ever happen they will be my first choice for new doors & windows.

We have had our bedroom windows installed by Nu Eco windows in 2023 we only had 2 done to see how they went. We waited 6 months for install which was explained to us from the get go as they are made overseas. With my wife been European this was great as we were getting a product the same as in Europe. On the day of install it took a good 5 hours. Once it was done the installer told us they would be ordering a new window as the one they installed had a very tine 1cm scratch at the bottom which you would never see unless looking for it. This made us proud we went with NuEco windows. They swapped our window out a month later. We continued to use them for the 2nd bedroom and kitchen windows all up 4 windows 2024 The team were amazing. They spoke to us through problems they came across as the house is 20 years old and rectified it without fuss or extra charge. Needless to say its now 2026 and we are about to call them to come quote our last 2 windows. The team really know what they are doing we had a number of reps from other businesses come out and try the hard sale and push and didn't really know their product well NuEco was the complete opposite. Adam and Andy and great to deal with.

Heritage Windows - Common Questions

Considering new windows for a period home? Here's what Melbourne homeowners ask about the sculptured ovolo profile.

Sculptured ovolo profiles have rounded, decorative edges designed to match the look of traditional timber window frames on period homes. Chamfered profiles have flat, angular edges suited to contemporary and modern architecture. Both use the same uPVC construction, double glazed units, and locking hardware. Performance is identical. The choice is purely about which aesthetic suits your home.

The sculptured profile is designed to be sympathetic to period streetscapes. Its rounded edges and decorative glazing bead closely replicate the proportions and detail of traditional timber frames. While heritage overlay rules vary by council, the sculptured ovolo is the profile most commonly chosen for homes in heritage-sensitive areas across Melbourne.

If your timber frames are rotting, warping, sticking, or letting draughts through, replacement will solve problems that maintenance can only delay. uPVC sculptured ovolo windows replicate the look of the original timber but eliminate all the ongoing upkeep. For more detail on when replacement makes sense, see our guide on reasons to replace old windows.

Pricing depends on the window type, size, quantity, glass specification, and extras. A standard double glazed uPVC window starts from approximately $1,600 to $1,800 installed. The sculptured ovolo profile costs the same as the chamfered. Nu-Eco provides a free on-site measure and quote for your specific project.

All Nu-Eco windows are AWA and WERS certified and independently tested to Australian Standard AS2047 by a NATA-accredited facility. The sculptured ovolo achieves the same performance ratings as the chamfered profile, including zero water ingress at 600pa and air infiltration of just 0.1 L/sec.

The sculptured profile is available in white, rosewood, rosewood on white, golden oak, golden oak on white, Irish oak, cream, anthracite grey, and more. Woodgrain finishes can be applied to the exterior face with a clean white interior, or specified on both sides. The rosewood and golden oak options are the most popular for heritage homes where an authentic stained-timber appearance from the street is important.
