Aesthetics

One of the reasons why sash windows continue to gain popularity and have ongoing appeal in London is their aesthetics. Timber window frames are beautiful, eye-catching, and you can use them to add value to your property. Additionally, sash windows might be a basic requirement for your house, especially if you live in a listed property.

Structural integrity

When choosing the type of window to install in a home, security is always at the top of most homeowner’s priorities. When it comes to safety hardwood sash windows are a great choice, thanks to their structural integrity. Hardwood constitutes strong grain structures that enhance its strength and durability. Its a material that withstands the ever-changing climate in the UK.

Environmental friendliness

Timber is probably the most eco-friendly material you can use for your window system. Timber requires minimal energy to process, produce, and
transport. On the other hand, timber is a highly durable material. It would, therefore, take you a relatively long time to replace your window. Furthermore, the use of timber can be extended through reuse or recycling, especially if you choose to replace your window before the end of its lifespan.

Natural insulation

If you are looking for a way to minimise energy usage in your home, sash timber windows are one way to achieve this goal. Timber is a natural insulator. This means that you can have your home retain optimum temperatures during both winter and summer. Timber as a natural insulator is particularly helpful during winters, as its insulation properties help you maintain a low budget on your energy bill.

Enhanced ventilation

The sliding glass panes in this type of window go a long way in enhancing your home’s ventilation. A window with two sliding sashes at the top and bottom creates a conventional flow of cool airwaves that are perfect for your house during summer.
