The old reasoning behind choosing uPVC over timber as a material was the maintenance-free practicality and lower cost, while there was an acceptance that the aesthetics would suffer.
Times have changed! There have been many design developments over the years – often instigated by us – to improve the aesthetics of uPVC. Through our experience and consultation with various conservation departments we have engineered our windows to keep the maintenance-free aspect and practicality while building in the period feel of an original timber sash. In fact many neighbours of installations comment believing they are in fact timber!
