Sash windows in Wood Street

The housing in Wood Street is largely Edwardian bay-fronted terraces with porches and some interwar houses. 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. Landlords of converted period buildings benefit from sash replacements that reduce draughts and maintenance calls, but should confirm any planning conditions affecting the frontage first.

Many owners here combine new windows with a composite or aluminium front door and a refreshed porch. Homes close to the railway line or Forest Road can be noisy, so we can quote acoustic glazing as an option. From Edmonton it is about 2.4 miles, a short drive along Forest Road.

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.
