Balham is one of South West London’s most sought-after neighbourhoods. With its mix of Victorian and Edwardian homes, a strong community feel, and proximity to green spaces, it attracts families and professionals who appreciate character and convenience. Our hardwood timber windows provide double glazed sash windows Balham homeowners rely on to enhance performance while preserving style.
Original sash windows add charm but often fail when it comes to energy efficiency and sound insulation. Single glazing and poor sealing contribute to heat loss, rising bills, and uncomfortable winter months. For a long time, the only solution seemed to be full replacement with materials that didn’t reflect the home’s heritage, but that’s changed.
Modern double glazed sash windows now offer the best of both worlds. Built with narrow-profile glazing that mimics the look of single panes, these units significantly reduce heat loss, eliminate draughts, and reduce street noise, ideal for homes on busy roads like Bedford Hill or Balham High Road.
In a recent upgrade for a Victorian terrace on Hearnville Road, our team supplied double glazed hardwood sash windows across the entire front elevation. The homeowner wanted better thermal performance without losing the home’s historic look. By specifying slimline double-glazed units within traditional sash profiles, we delivered modern performance in a period-correct format. The result? A warmer home, lower bills, and improved market appeal.
The beauty of our sash windows lies in the detail. From traditional horn shapes to matching staff beads and heritage sash fasteners, everything is built with authenticity in mind. We also offer a wide range of finishes, from classic whites to bold modern tones, all factory-applied for long life and minimal upkeep.
Balham is known for its well-maintained streetscapes and owner-occupied homes. Window upgrades done to a high standard stand out, and increase both street presence and resale potential. Our customers consistently report improved interior comfort, reduced condensation, and better acoustic performance, particularly in front-facing reception rooms and bedrooms.
By choosing hardwood timber windows, Balham homeowners don’t just fix a performance issue, they enhance their home’s character and long-term value.
