Sash windows are particularly popular at the moment amongst customers choosing to refit period properties, as they seamlessly complement historic features in old buildings. These windows ensure you get a seamless visual link between the inside and outside of a building, whilst also promoting openness and freshness in airflow.
For over a century, sash windows have been a popular choice for homeowners because of their classic looks and excellent energy-saving properties. If they are bought and installed correctly, they can help save on energy bills and reduce the effects of draughts easily.
The sashes (operating shutters) have a great impact on the window’s strength and its weight. The extra weight also helps slow down entry by a burglar due to the force needed to push the window up if there is resistance. Sash windows also have historically been more secure than other types of windows because burglars have to break through layers/panels and they are usually back-filled with glass pieces on impact and therefore difficult to enter.
Sash windows are low maintenance thanks to their design and durable materials. The secret is in the way they open. Their moveable parts are sandwiched between two incredibly strong hardwood sides, often with a layer of felt or weather-stripping in between them to keep out the elements.
And here’s the best part: unlike other traditional windows, you won’t have to worry about replacing any springs once they snap!
In terms of real estate, a home’s windows are considered to be one of its most valuable assets.

We install sash windows in many different styles and materials throughout the whole of the UK. There are a variety of ways to arrange the number and location of panes in each type of window. Here are our most popular sash windows:
A box sash window is one of many styles of sash windows we install. It’s a traditional style window that features two vertical wooden or metal sections – the upper and lower sashes which can open for ventilation. The heat-transfer efficiency and lightweight nature of this style contributed to its popularity in England. Our box sash windows are perfect for modern homes, with an exterior design to suit a range of different buildings. This is achieved by a unique tapered-rail device, which adds extra depth to the window frame.
The windows are made from high-quality materials and decorated with premium materials to fit any home style. In addition to triple glazing and warm edge sprigging, box sash windows offer attractive features that are visually pleasing whether viewed from inside or outside your home.
A spring balanced sash is a window that has been modified to allow it to be used with a counterweight. A Spring balanced sash window can be opened much wider than other traditional windows, up to 90 degrees of opening.
Because the balance is spring-loaded, there is no handle to pull, and once the window is opened, it will stay open until enough pressure builds up to push it closed, similar to an automatic garage door. They’re also more energy-efficient thanks to their innovative double glazed glass design. We use the traditional method of elongated slots and wooden ‘springs’ to provide tension for the windowpane to move with ease but still hold firm in all conditions. We attribute this to the weather-proof, lightweight, paintable frames we offer, that allows us to serve the needs of time-sensitive and period projects.
Georgian sash windows are a unique type of window that provides additional ventilation and provide a period style sash window. When installed, they are a discrete inclusion that adds an original look to period properties.
As part of our commitment to quality and style, we matched the Georgian sash with our two sills and arches. We use top class authentic parts to ensure quality workmanship so you can be certain of getting a period design that will be great.
Essentially a classic double-hung sash window, a Victorian sash window boasts a classic double-hung design. The bottom half of the frame slides up and down to open or close, while the top half stays stationary. One of the most popular window styles in today’s market is the Victorian sash.
A sash has a natural space between the bottom edge and the frame called the reveal, which naturally encourages cold air to enter through the frame. If desired, the classic look can be further enhanced by the addition of ornate crowns and returns.

Various frame materials are available for our sash windows to meet your specific needs.
uPVC frames provide excellent energy efficiency and resistance to the elements in our Sash Windows.
There are many frame materials available in the marketplace and aluminium is one of them. It’s lightweight, rust-resistant and, when used in a window, provides outstanding thermal properties.
Composite sashes are made from a high-density polyethene (HDPE) core sandwiched between two sheets of aluminium, creating a sash that is both strong and durable. To protect the frames against damage from the sun, weathering, animals, and chemicals, a latex acrylic finish is applied.
When it comes to windows, wood is the best choice. Renewable and biodegradable, wood is a renewable resource. Wood frames are widely used for their durability and natural appeal — making them popular among customers.
