Frequently Asked Questions
How much do bespoke box sash windows cost in London?
Costs vary depending on size, detailing, glazing and finish. Bespoke timber sash windows represent a long-term investment, offering superior fit, durability and appearance compared to off-the-shelf alternatives.
Are timber sash windows better than uPVC?
For period and conservation properties, timber sash windows are widely preferred. Timber allows for finer detailing, easier long-term repair and a more authentic appearance.
Can sash windows be double glazed in conservation areas?
In many cases, yes. Slimline or heritage-style double glazing is often acceptable when the external appearance is preserved. Barnsbury Joinery designs windows with conservation requirements in mind.
How long does it take to make custom sash windows?
From survey to installation, timescales typically span several weeks depending on specification and complexity. Quality bespoke joinery is carefully made, not rushed.
