Sash windows in West Hampstead

Homes in West Hampstead are mostly Victorian terraces, red-brick mansion flats and converted maisonettes. 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.

In mansion blocks, sash replacement is often controlled by the freeholder or managing agent, so get written approval of the glazing pattern and material before ordering. In conservation areas and on listed buildings, councils may insist on timber sashes or repair rather than replacement, so check with the planning team before choosing materials.

With three stations and their railway lines cutting through the area, train noise is a real issue for homes backing onto the tracks, and acoustic glazing makes a noticeable difference. Parts of West Hampstead, including around West End Green, are conservation areas, so we confirm details with Camden Council first. We are about 7.7 miles from the area.

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.
