Sash window specialists for Swindon’s period properties
Original timber sashes are still common on Swindon’s older streets, and replacing them properly takes more care than a modern casement. The historic GWR Railway Village has distinctive stone railway-worker cottages, while most of the rest of Swindon is post-war and modern suburban development, and a lot of those original sash boxes are now decades past their expected working life. An inland Wiltshire climate with nothing unusual weather-wise affecting window wear, 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 Swindon? Often yes, but the Railway Village has conservation protection, while the bulk of the town’s newer housing sits outside any special restrictions, 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 Swindon? 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.
