Rules for sash windows in England
In England, replacement windows must meet 1.4 W/m²K, or a Window Energy Rating of band B or better. Replacement windows are a controlled fitting. A competent person scheme installer (such as FENSA or Certass) self-certifies the work and notifies the council within 30 days; otherwise a building control body approves it.
Planning: Replacing windows on a house is normally permitted development if the new ones look similar. New upper-floor windows in a side wall must be obscure glazed and fixed, or open only above 1.7 m. Flats and maisonettes have no householder permitted development rights, so a change that alters their appearance needs planning permission. An Article 4 direction in a conservation area may mean permission is needed, and listed buildings need listed building consent.
How it works
We start with a survey, not a sales pitch: measurements, the structure above any bays, trickle-vent needs and escape windows. The quote that follows fixes the price, and anything unexpected on the day is agreed with you first.

Questions from Ferndown
Are uPVC sashes allowed in conservation areas?
It depends on the council and any Article 4 direction. Timber is often expected on front elevations. Check before ordering.
Can I keep my original sash boxes?
Sometimes. A timber specialist can fit new sashes into sound original boxes, but the glass thickness is limited by the sash depth.
How long does it take to get triple glazed sash windows fitted in Ferndown?
After the survey, typical manufacture time is 6 to 10 weeks, and most homes are fitted in 1 to 4 days.
