And, of course, virtually all timber windows are painted or stained and require periodic maintenance...stripping, filling, sanding, priming, re-painting.

So it was no surprise that many saw the replacement of timber sliding sash windows with new PVC-U versions as an easy choice. But frankly, these 'first generation' PVC-U windows failed to match the aesthetic beauty of the traditional window. The frames appeared 'clumsy' compared to the elegant sightlines of period designs. Yet, one leading British quality window systems company persevered.

It took the latest computer aided 3D design systems, plus considerable investment to achieve the necessary combination of a slim but strong and durable frame.

This beautiful design means homeowners can now enjoy the best of both worlds, truly presenting a property to best advantage, with attractive aspects, whether viewed from the garden or interior.
