Get answers to common questions about our wooden sash windows, from their customisation and installation to maintenance and heritage compliance.
Wooden sash windows offer a timeless aesthetic, exceptional build quality, and the ability to meet conservation and heritage requirements. They also provide excellent thermal and acoustic performance.
Regular cleaning with non-abrasive materials, lubrication of hardware, and application of specified maintenance products will ensure long-lasting performance and appearance.
Yes. Many Essex towns such as Colchester, Maldon and Saffron Walden fall within conservation or heritage zones. Replacement sliding sash windows generally require local authority approval to ensure they match the property’s original style. Lomax + Wood design products that comply with conservation standards while offering modern performance benefits.
In most listed buildings, traditional appearance is essential. Lomax + Wood provide single-glazed timber sash windows with traditional putty glazing where required, while also offering double-glazed sash windows for permitted projects, ensuring both heritage authenticity and improved energy efficiency.
We use high-quality, sustainably sourced timber to ensure our sash windows are durable, eco-friendly, and beautifully crafted for long-lasting performance.
