Why choose uPVC sash windows?

Many Bristol homes — particularly Victorian and Edwardian terraces in Clifton, Bishopston, Redland, and Bedminster — have traditional sliding sash windows. When these need replacing, homeowners want to keep the original appearance while gaining modern insulation, security, and low maintenance.

uPVC sash windows replicate the look of traditional timber sash — run-through horns, deep bottom rails, woodgrain finishes — without the painting, rot, or draughts. They cost more than standard casement windows, but for the right property the appearance is worth it.

Features

• Sliding operation — both sashes slide vertically, just like the originals
• Tilt-in cleaning — sashes tilt inwards so you can clean from inside
• Period proportions — deep bottom rail and run-through horns match the original look
• Colour options — white, cream, anthracite grey, or woodgrain
• A-rated double glazing — dramatically better than single-glazed originals
• Multi-point locking — far more secure than old sash window locks

When sash windows make sense

• Replacing old timber sash windows that are draughty, rotten, or painted shut
• Matching existing sash windows on a property where some have already been replaced
• Properties in conservation areas where the planning authority requires a sash-style window
• Homeowners who prefer the traditional look but want modern performance

What does it cost?

uPVC sash windows cost more than standard casement windows because of their more complex mechanism and manufacturing. As a rough guide:

Window type	Typical price (+ VAT)
Single sash window	From £900
Full front elevation (Victorian terrace)	From £3,500
