"Recent Scientific Evidence Shows How You Can Keep Your Period Windows And Slash Your Fuel Bills!"


For the first time in England important new scientific evidence is available to counteract the misconceptions

about the energy efficiency of original timber sash & casement windows, a unique feature of Englands architectural

heritage which is fast disappearing.


New research by Dr Paul Baker of Glasgow Caledonian University for English Heritage provides important

scientific evidence that restoring, renovating, draught proofing & upgrading a traditional wooden sash window or

casement

window hugely increases its energy efficiency, in fact allowing it to retain up to 70% more heat and achieve

a U value of around 1.5 - 1.7 (well inside the government target of 2.0) when compared to one which is left untreated.


Dr Simon Thurley, Chief Executive of English Heritage said; "It is very encouraging to see that more buildings

are being professionally restored to meet modern energy requirements, but all too often a drastic and insensitive

approach has led to the degradation of our streetscapes. Many original timber windows have lasted more than two

hundred years and are capable of lasting another century. This piece of research provides the hard evidence that

shows how economical it is to upgrade them and supports our call for their retention."


If you've got draughty, rattling old sash or casement windows from the last century, or even the one before, which are to say the least, not very

energy efficient and you suffer from howling draughts all winter long, then together with ever rising fuel prices, it's not a problem that you can or

should ignore!


That's where we can help, because whilst it costs a fortune to have replacement windows made & fitted, we can offer

a much more affordable solution. We support English Heritage in as much as we prefer to renovate & repair rather

than replace & waste your original period windows. After all they are a very important architectural featur of your house

and replacing them with an unsuitable alternative will ultimately reduce the value of your home.


We can take your sash or casement windows apart, fully restore and repair them structurally, then reassemble them

incorporating our 'up to the minute' yet very subtle draught proofing system. This as studies have shown, will prevent

86% of the air movement through the window, helping it to retain up to 70% more of the heat that is normally lost

through the window frame, without the added benefit of double glazing, which incidentally, we can fit to your existing

sash or casement windows.


As we stated above, we Can Fully Renovate, Restore, Structurally Repair And Draught Proof Your Period Sash Or

Casement Windows For Between £300 & £380 per window.


The renovation, draught proofing & double glazing work that we do represents a much more affordable solution to the

problem of replacing them when even an unsuitable alternative will cost thousands more, and, this way you get to keep

your existing period windows, for a fraction of the cost of new ones.


The fact that you can upgrade 3 windows for the price of replacing one means this really does make complete sense.


So please give us a call or an email and we will arrange to carry out an absolutely no obligation, free survey of your windows, at a time to suit you, followed

by a fully broken down, window by window, written quote.
