Sash window specialists for Coventry’s period properties
Sash windows are common across the older parts of Coventry, and they need a different approach to a standard casement job. Much of central Coventry was rebuilt after severe wartime bombing, so post-war architecture sits alongside surviving pockets of older terraces, and a lot of those original sash boxes are now decades past their expected working life. Inland West Midlands weather here is unremarkable in itself, though a lot of the 1950s and 60s housing stock now needs its original windows upgraded, and old single-glazed sashes are usually where that shows up first as draughts and heat loss.

Frequently asked questions
Can I fit double-glazed sash windows on a listed or conservation-area property in Coventry? Often yes, but conservation pressure is lighter here than in cities with more surviving pre-war stock, which usually makes like-for-like replacement more straightforward, so slimline double-glazed units that replicate the original glazing bars are usually the way through rather than a standard modern sash.
Is it better to repair or replace old sash windows? If the timber frame itself is sound, draught-proofing and mechanism repairs are usually cheaper and can be enough. Full sash replacement makes more sense once the frame has rotted or the sash cords have failed repeatedly.
How long does sash window replacement take in Coventry? A single sash window usually takes half a day including making good the surrounding plaster or woodwork, though full-house jobs on larger period properties take longer.

Dominant era of housing stock: Postwar rebuild in the centre, interwar and Victorian in the suburbs.
Heritage note: Around 20 conservation areas, mostly around surviving prewar suburbs.
