We had all the sash windows replaced with double glazing, the window casements restored and two sets of french doors with windows replaced. The original style and features have been kept and the finish is immaculate. Marek understood the style of the Victorian terraced house and our want to keep the feel of the house as it is, showing us work he had done to similar properties in the area.
Marek is reliable, quick to respond to any questions we emailed in the lead up and incredibly hard working. There were no problems, no delays, and the quality of the materials is evident. The entire house has been brought back to life, suddenly so fresh and bright, and we can't wait to feel the effects of this new insulation in the winter (...).”

Prompt, trustworthy and excellent attention to detail - we could not recommend them enough. They did an amazing job with our windows.
We started off with our two bay windows (refurb and replacement) but after seeing the quality of their work, they have since refurbed a few more throughout the house.
Thank you both - the windows have made such a difference.”
I chose Marek and his team based on their passion and I’m so happy with the result. Where they existed the original sash windows were revamped and double glazed and where they’d been replaced by 1980s plastic windows, they installed beautiful casements including some detailed woodwork to mirror the originals.
It was a pleasure to work with Marek and his team and all the neighbours have been remarking on how much better the house looks. I’d have no hesitation recommending Marek and his team to others. The work was completed in December and the team was tidy and conscientious.”
Marek is a great guy who is passionate about his windows - and this shows - if anyone will help you decide that quality matters he is the man - and now I'm warm in my house - with beautiful windows - that are double - glazed to the INSURERS and Council specification - guaranteed for a minimum of five years.
Sadly it's a rare an experience to encounter a true professional that makes it a pleasure from start to finish - their fit out was fast, efficient, and above all TIDY - they left the place cleaner than when they started.

Timber Frames: The Premier Choice for Sash and other types of Windows in North London
While it may be subjective to label timber as superior to any other material used in window frames, it does offer several advantages that make it a popular choice for many homeowners in London.
Although today’s technology makes it easy to substitute wood with uPVC frames, traditionalists will agree that plastic cannot achieve the same effect. Wooden sash windows are a classic feature of English architecture, particularly in Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian homes. These windows have several distinguishing characteristics, which have contributed to their enduring popularity.
Here are some reasons why timber is often considered a superior option for window frames:
Aesthetic Appeal: Wooden window frames have a natural, warm, and timeless appearance that is difficult to replicate with other materials. This classic look can enhance the overall aesthetic of a property, adding charm and character to both traditional and contemporary designs.
Insulation Properties: Wood is a natural insulator, providing better thermal performance than most other materials, such as aluminium or uPVC. This helps to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature, reduce energy consumption, and lower heating and cooling costs.
Customisation: Timber window frames offer various customisation options, including various wood species, stains, and finishes. This allows homeowners to create windows that perfectly match their taste and the architectural style of their property.
Environmentally Friendly: Wood is a renewable resource. When sourced from sustainably managed forests, it is an environmentally responsible choice for window frames. Additionally, timber has a lower carbon footprint than many other materials, as it requires less energy to produce and can be easily recycled or biodegraded at the end of its lifespan.
Longevity: High-quality wooden sash window frames can last for decades with proper care and maintenance. Regular painting, sealing, and inspection can prevent common issues such as rot and warping, ensuring that the windows remain functional and attractive for many years.
Sound Insulation: Timber window frames offer better sound insulation than many other materials, helping to create a quieter and more peaceful living environment. This can be particularly beneficial for properties in busy urban areas or near noisy roads.

Sash windows, a common architectural feature in homes and buildings, have a unique design and structure, contributing to their elegance and functionality. Their intricate construction involves various parts, each with a specific role in the window's operation and aesthetics. Understanding these components and the terminology professionals use can be immensely helpful whether you're looking to maintain, repair, or simply appreciate the beauty of your sash windows.
The following guide provides a comprehensive breakdown of these parts, divided into exterior and interior components, for easier understanding.
The following guide provides a comprehensive breakdown of these parts, divided into exterior and interior components, for easier understanding.
Sash windows have long been a defining feature of British architecture, with their history dating back several centuries. This quintessentially British window design made its first appearance in the 17th century, making a profound mark on the country's architectural landscape. In fact, one of the oldest known examples of a building with sash windows is the Ham House in Richmond, London. Constructed in 1672, this grand Stuart-period home still boasts its original sash windows, a testament to the design's longevity and appeal.
The popularity of sash windows soared during the Georgian era (1714-1837) as they were seen as a status symbol, enhancing the exterior aesthetic of homes with their elegant simplicity.

When it comes to preserving the historical charm and architectural integrity of a heritage property in London or any other conservation area, the devil is often in the details. A significant part of this detail lies in selecting the right furniture for your wooden sash windows, also known as ironmongery. The pieces of hardware used in such windows – locks, latches, and fasteners – should not only adhere to the period style of the property but also enhance its aesthetic appeal and security.
Sash windows, characterised by their vertical sliding panels, have been an architectural staple in British heritage buildings since the 17th century.
