Sash Windows with wood effect pvc?

Recommended Posts

We would like to replace our thin, aluminium sashes from 1989 with something more thermally efficient.



I would love to be able to afford timber ones but at around ?2,000 a window it makes bays very expensive. We're thinking of authentic looking uPVC ones where they at least try to emulate the wood effect.


Would anyone have any recommendations? I had s quote from Bespoke but it was astronomical & I found the guy really pushy and salesy. Wondered if it's worth researching companies in the Kent area.

There's really nothing wrong with white PVC windows. They use them in most new buildings now.

I had mine done and like you had originally wanted wood but I am really happy with the PVC.

Draft proof, quite secure and no more painting. It needs to be done so often.

I got sash in the front and ordinary around the back.

I think most people who get the brown wood effect regret in in the end as it's so dark.

I love mine and recommend.

I have Everest my family and friends have spoken to our local consultant Tony Yardley he's a lovely gentlemen know sales non-sencence just will give you the lowest possible price Everest can do windows are beautiful would not think they are PVC

It's worth giving him a call or email to see

Good luck

Can someone give me a rough idea on the cost on Pvc sash? I've had bespoke round but they've only measured up and said we've got to go into the showroom to see everything and then they'll give us a quote



We need teo bay windows plus one single I don't know if I'm looking at ?2k or ?10k!!

I used Scenic Glazing http://scenicglazing.com & have recommended them to several people who have been very happy with their work. I had a bay window replaced for about ?1,300 about 5 years ago. Prices can vary depending on glass & frame choices and size of windows. I didn't get quotes from any of the big companies as they always seem more expensive. From the quotes I did get Bespoke were the most expensive by far.

They are pricey, My were either ?1800 or ?2800 but the wooden sash were twice the cost. That I remember.

One thing that I will say, if you are getting PVC sash and want to keep them open a couple of inches safely, get the security fitting with the window.

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.     
    • That’s very insulting! You are basically calling 17 million people that voted to leave the EU ‘thick’.        Brexit happened Sue.  Boring graphs!  Calling Nigel Farage a plastic patriot is also very insulting seeing as he and the Reform Party have had a landslide victory all over England.
    • These charity collectors are often classed as chuggers.  It can be scandalous that the charity/admin may keep a huge percentage of your donations and a tiny percentage is  actually given to the charity.   I can not speak for individual collectors - but it common practice.
