Vertical sliders are a traditional style of window. Commonly found in older properties, they are usually manufactured from timber.
This elegant type of window is a popular replacement in period houses, its design giving your home a sophisticated charm and style that you won’t achieve from a standard casement window. Real timber windows can be expensive so homeowners look to more affordable solutions such as PVC-U. |

Sash Window MaterialsIf you’re thinking of getting sash windows, you’ll need to choose between two materials: timber and uPVC. Timber is a great choice if you want to add the charm of traditional windows to your home and/or simply like the look and feel of real wood. uPVC, on the other hand, is an excellent option if you want to have windows that have a modern look and don’t need a lot of maintenance.
Once you’ve chosen the material you want, you can select the colour and finish that you want for your windows. Stick to plain white paint or wood grain finish to give your windows understated beauty, or opt for bright red or yellow paint to make them pop out. You can also choose to add Georgian bars and decorative horns to your windows to make them look more elegant and attractive. |
They’re highly versatileSash windows are excellent for older properties since they mimic the stunning design of traditional Georgian windows but are stronger and more secure. However, it would be a mistake to say that sash windows are only for heritage homes since they can also work for modern houses! With the right colour and finish, you can have highly attractive sash windows that match your home’s contemporary look. |
They help conserve energyThis is one of the reasons why you should switch to from Georgian windows (or any other window that’s several years old) to sash windows. The latter, if properly designed and manufactured, can keep draughts away and prevent warm air from escaping your home. As a result, you can keep your house toasty and comfortable without having to use a lot of power. |
They don’t require much maintenanceSash windows are low-maintenance, especially when they’re made of uPVC. As long as you give them a wipe every now and then, they’ll continue to look spiffy and attractive for a long time. |

Our Sash WindowsTake a look at our different styles of Sash WindowsWe offer a range of sash window styles to match your old windows as closely as possible and maintain the signature “design statement” for your home. We can replace bay-style windows including splay and box bay windows. These are a common feature in older properties and when combined with a sliding sash window the installed appearance is very impressive. Convenient and simple to operate, the two sliding sashes within an outer frame work independently of each other on a balanced load mechanism, designed to hold the sash at any height.
The window sashes feature an inward opening tilt facility to allow easy and safe cleaning of the outside frame and glass from inside your home.
