Sash windows in Theydon Bois

The housing in Theydon Bois is largely Victorian cottages, interwar detached houses and post-war homes. Victorian and Edwardian terraces often have two-over-two or one-over-one sashes with horns, and matching that pattern exactly keeps the front elevation consistent with neighbouring houses.

Some 1920s houses have sash windows alongside bays, so note whether the bay sashes slide or are fixed before deciding how closely to match the original arrangement. On larger period houses with many sashes, prioritise the most draughty or damaged windows first, and record the glazing bar layouts so later phases match exactly.

Planning rules near the green and forest can be stricter than in suburban streets, so we check before quoting. We are about 7.5 miles from our Edmonton factory and handle surveys, manufacturing and fitting ourselves.

Sliding sash windows open vertically and give period homes their familiar look, with balanced sashes, horns and glazing bars. We make replacement sash windows to match original proportions, suiting owners of Victorian, Edwardian and Georgian properties who want better insulation and security without losing traditional character.

• Traditional look with modern weather sealing
