Sash windows in White City

The housing in White City is largely 1930s council-built blocks, modern apartments and Edwardian terraces. 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.

Newer homes built in a traditional style sometimes have mock sashes, and genuine sliding sashes can replace them where you want a more authentic opening action. 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.

Flats here usually mean working with a landlord, housing association or managing agent, so we confirm consent and access before fitting. The A40 Westway and the Central line run right through the area, and for rooms facing them we recommend acoustic double glazing to keep things quieter.

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.
