Installation of Timber Sash Windows in somerset
Every installation is carried out by the same team who manufacture your windows. We work carefully within period homes, protecting existing finishes and minimising disruption wherever possible. Whether installing new double glazed sashes into existing box frames or fitting complete new sash windows, the focus is always on preserving the character of your home while improving comfort and performance.
Types of Sash Window Installation
Installing Double Glazed Sashes into Existing Box Frames
In many period homes, the original box frames remain structurally sound even when the sashes themselves have deteriorated. Where appropriate, we can manufacture new double glazed timber sashes designed to fit precisely within the existing boxes.
This approach allows homeowners to improve insulation, reduce draughts and improve operation while retaining as much original fabric as possible. It is often the preferred solution for homeowners where preserving existing features and minimal disruption is important.
Each sash is individually made to suit the opening, ensuring smooth operation and a traditional appearance from both inside and outside the property.
Complete New Box Frame Replacement
Where original box frames have decayed beyond repair or have been heavily altered in the past, complete replacement may be the best long-term solution.
New timber box frames and sashes are manufactured in our Somerset workshop using traditional joinery methods, designed to replicate original proportions while improving performance and durability.
This provides a fully renewed sash window with improved thermal efficiency, smooth operation and long service life, while maintaining the character expected in period properties.
Upgrading Previous uPVC Installations
Many homes have had earlier uPVC sash or casement windows installed which no longer suit the character of the property or have begun to fail. We regularly replace these with bespoke timber sash windows designed to restore the original appearance of the building.
By returning to traditional timber construction, homeowners benefit from improved aesthetics, repairability and longevity, alongside modern glazing performance.
