The Key Benefits of Timber Double-Glazed Sash Windows

Tired of rattly, draughty, single-glazed traditional sash windows, but casements won’t suit the style of your property and you don’t want to opt for PVC? Then solid wood, double-glazed sash windows could be the smart choice for your home.

 

Eye-Catching and Energy-Efficient

It goes without saying that solid timber window frames look stunning on any property, and are surprisingly low maintenance and durable. In fact, a well-maintained timber window will outlast uPVC three times over and is far more energy-efficient with a naturally high level of insulation. Better yet, timber sash windows will actually reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.

Safe and Sound

Not only will you enjoy lower energy bills when you install our Sash Windows Manchester, but you’ll enjoy increased security too. Those ill-fitting single-glazed sash windows can be a magnet for opportunistic criminals, providing an easy point of entry. Replace them with strong, solid and well-fitting frames with modern locking systems and your sash windows will no longer be the weak spot in your property.

Repair and Restore

Modern uPVC windows may seem attractive when it comes to price and the promise of your windows being maintenance free, but they never quite live up to that promise. Your uPVC windows will still need to be kept clean and checked regularly for blown seals and other repairs. For certain types of damage, replacement may be cheaper than repair, whereas wood can be easily repaired, refreshed and refurbished for lower lifetime running costs.

 

The Best of Traditional and Contemporary

If you have a period property, then double-glazed sash windows replacing like with like will continue to enhance the beauty of your property. But the elegance of sash windows can look equally at home in a new build or a more contemporary property. By matching traditional aesthetics with the best of contemporary materials, sash windows become the must-have option for your property.
