Georgian and Victorian sliding sash windows made from modern uPVC

Known as such for a sash that slides up to open and down again to close, vertical sliders are styled in a classical way. Because of this reason, they never go out of fashion, meaning homes of any size, style and age can benefit from their timeless visual appeal.

For those after a truly authentic sash window, Budget Windows provides them in timber, which is the material originally used to construct them. However, their performance has been significantly improved to meet the demands of the modern homeowner. Alternatively, uPVC vertical sliders are also available, which require less maintenance than the timber variants. Despite the low maintenance appeal, the uPVC vertical sliding windows still retain the same beautiful period styling that the timber versions naturally provide.

Unlike traditional variants, the opening mechanism of our vertical sliding windows will not stick or rattle. Instead, they’ll slide open effortlessly and quietly. When the windows are closed, they’ll keep the weather and any draughts firmly out of your home with our high-performance double glazing, meaning you can truly enjoy the look of your Victorian sliding windows.

Replacement sash windows that are maintenance-free & energy efficient.

Our uPVC sliders are fitted with authentic Georgian bars and energy efficient glazing, ensuring the costs to heat your home will be significantly reduced. In terms of security, they can have either key or traditional locks, both of which are highly secure. Conversely, our timber sash windows feature argon gas filled glazing with a warm spacer bar so they achieve U-Values of 1.1 W/m2k, an incredible thermal performance. They have also been internally glazed for security and come with the option of window restrictors, which are a great addition for windows located in areas where children’s safety might be at risk.

Wide range of colours

Regardless of whether uPVC or timber is the right material for you, we’ve got plenty of colour finishes for both types of our vertical sliding windows. For this reason, we’ve got no doubt that we have a shade to suit you.

Wide range of colours

Any timber variants can be painted in any RAL or Farrow and Ball colour, providing you with thousands of different colours from which to choose. No matter the age and look of your home, there’s certainly a colour option in our selection to fit it.

Dual colour options are also available. A window with dual colours will have a different colour for the internal and external areas of the window. Opting for this choice will allow you to blend the appearance of your window to both the inside and outside of your property.

Choose your glazing

Our timber versions are available with either double or triple glazing, although the practical features of our double glazing is likely to suit the requirements of most homeowners. If you’re after that extra boost to performance, however, triple glazing is ideal.

Choose your glazing

Triple glazing offers enhanced levels of insulation over double, meaning it provides further reductions to your energy bills and ensures for a quieter living space. Because three panes of glass are more difficult to smash than two, triple glazing adds an extra layer of security too.

We can also fit these windows with acoustic glass. Acoustic glass reduces external noise meaning they’re great in busy areas. If you’re looking for an additional boost to security, laminated and toughened safety glass are also available for fitting.

Customise your hardware

It’s important to be able to change the subtle features on a window. It’s the little subtleties that ensure the window feels tailor-made to you. With this in mind, we offer a range of customisable hardware for that bespoke feel.

Customise your hardware

Both our timber and uPVC vertical sliders come with a selection of additional hardware. This includes trickle vents, which can provide your home with a means to ventilate your home without opening the window.

Additionally, there are bay corner posts and trims, fixing lugs, egress options and a variety of other hardware, allowing you to achieve an increasingly authentic sash window appearance or alter their function so it is more in-line with your specific requirements.

'Excellent service throughout and a fantastic product. Tony was such a great help when we were choosing our doors and windows, and very flexible when we wanted to make changes. The overall cost was very competitive and I'd have no hesitation in recommending budget to friends in the area.'

Ian Hinchliffe

'It's not often you get a truly personal service these days but that is what we received from Ben and his team. His knowledge, professionalism and attention to detail reassured us completely. We were kept informed throughout the process and everything was delivered on-time and within budget. '

Geraint Whitley

'We needed new windows in our Victorian house as the original ones were incredibly draughty and no longer opened properly. Our priority was to get efficient modern windows which were in keeping with the style of the property. Tony at Budget Windows put a great deal of effort into advising us and designing our windows. The fitters were really tidy and trustworthy and we are thrilled with the results.'

Zoe Davies

'Absolutely brilliant from beginning to end – amazing fitters – two windows and patio sliding doors – great company to deal with – thank you.'

Budget Windows Customer

'Ben was excellent in assisting us to choose the right windows, guiding us through the different options available and understanding our requirements for a 1930s house. He delivered ahead of schedule and the fitting was excellent. One minor production fault was noted and corrected very quickly and the windows look fantastic. Real high quality at a fantastic price. We did a lot of comparisons and some came in at 3x the price we paid and I didn’t see the difference in quality, nor was the customer service matched. Highly recommend Budget Windows.'
