Innovative Double Glazed Window Designs to Transform Your Home

If you’re thinking about new windows for your home, you might be surprised at how much design has moved on in recent years. Nowadays, the window world has a myriad of styles to choose from, not just casement windows.

We’ve spent over 15 years fitting windows across Kent, and we’ve seen firsthand how the right window can completely change a room and a home.

Let’s walk through some of the more innovative window styles we fit, and what makes each one special.

The windows we’ll cover

We’re going to look at three types of our uPVC windows, each of which brings something different to the table – from classic looks to unique opening mechanisms.

Flush Sash Windows

Flush sash windows are casement windows that sit completely flat within the frame, giving you those clean lines that work beautifully on both period property homes and contemporary homes. They’re designed to replicate the look of traditional wooden windows, but without any of the maintenance hassle.

What makes them different is how the sash sits perfectly level with the frame, with no stepped edge. This gives you a more traditional design that looks authentic, especially if you’re in a conservation area or have an older home. They’re an ideal option for historic buildings where you want to keep the character but need better thermal performance.

These windows bring a traditional look but also excellent energy efficiency, meaning less heat loss and lower heating bills. They’re available in our full colour selection so that you can match them to your home’s existing style. From classic white to authentic wood-effect finishes, there’s a good option for every property.

Sliding Sash Windows

Sliding sash windows are what most people picture when they think of Victorian or Georgian homes. Instead of opening outwards, the panels slide up and down vertically. It’s a window design that’s been around for centuries.

Because they don’t swing open, you’re not losing room outside or inside your property. This makes them brilliant for homes where windows open onto paths, or rooms where furniture sits close to the window.

Our sliding sash windows are engineered in uPVC, which means you get all the charm of the original design but with proper double glazing and thermal insulation.

They are a popular choice for period property homes where you want to keep the authentic look. But we’ve also fitted them in modern properties where homeowners simply prefer the style. With our range of colours available, including wood-effect finishes, you can achieve precisely the look you’re after.

Tilt and Turn Windows

Tilt and turn windows are a clever modern option with practical benefits. They open in two ways – they either tilt inward from the top for ventilation or swing fully open. It’s a practical design that solves several problems at once.

The tilt function is perfect for when you want fresh air but don’t want to open the window fully; it’s excellent for security and for homes with young children. The turn function opens the window completely inward, which makes cleaning the outside glass incredibly easy.

These windows add real architectural interest to modern homes. They’ve got a contemporary look with their clean lines and modern design. They’re also one of the best types of windows for high-rise flats or anywhere access is limited, because of that easy-clean feature.

Like all our windows, they’re highly energy efficient. The frames create a tight seal when closed, preventing draughts and keeping heat where it should be – inside your home. This means better thermal performance and potentially lower heating bills.

Finding the Ideal Window for Your Home

Flush sash windows give you traditional charm with modern performance. Sliding sash windows offer authentic period style with space-saving benefits. And tilt and turn windows bring contemporary design with practical advantages. All three are great ways to improve your home’s comfort.

All our windows come with a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee, and because we’re FENSA approved, you know the installation will be done properly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between flush sash windows and standard casement windows?

Flush sash windows sit level with the frame, giving a flat, seamless look that’s more traditional. Standard casement windows have a stepped appearance where the sash sits proud of the frame. Flush sash windows are often chosen for older properties or conservation areas where you want that authentic look. Both come in an array of colours.

Will new double glazing really reduce my energy bills?

Modern double glazing is significantly better at preventing heat loss than older windows. The difference is especially noticeable if you’re replacing single glazing or old double glazing. Our windows achieve excellent energy ratings, which means your heating system won’t need to work as hard to keep your home warm.

How long does it take to fit new windows?

For most homes, we can fit new windows in a day or two. The exact time depends on how many windows you’re having done and whether there are any complications with the existing frames.
