Why Choose Eden Sash Windows

Preserving Heritage Character With Double Glazing.

01

Preserving period aesthetics with double glazing

Upgrading to double glazing does not require sacrificing your home's original look. Our bespoke approach integrates A-rated, argon-filled units into your existing timber frames or newly manufactured sashes. By using warm-edge spacers and low-emissivity glass, we replicate the traditional sightlines and authentic profiles that single-glazed windows are known for. This precision makes our work an ideal solution for period properties in Sevenoaks and across the region where maintaining heritage character is paramount.

02

How does your draught-proofing system improve window performance?

Beyond replacing the glass, we enhance the overall operation of your windows through a rigorous draught-proofing process. We machine hidden brush seals into the new parting and staff beads, which effectively closes the gaps around the sash stiles and meeting rails. This eliminates rattling, reduces street noise from busy transport routes, and stops cold draughts from entering your living space, making your home noticeably more comfortable throughout the year.

03

Meeting local conservation requirements in Kent

Property owners in conservation areas often worry about the planning implications of upgrading their windows. We offer technical expertise on balancing thermal performance with strict planning controls. Whether you are managing a listed building or a property within an area subject to Article 4 directions, our joinery methods are designed to be compliant and sympathetic to the original architecture. We ensure that our timber sash upgrades provide the insulation you need while adhering to the local heritage standards expected in Swanley.

04

When you choose Eden Sash Windows, you benefit from a service built on quality joinery and professional accountability. As a FENSA-registered company, we provide a 10-year guarantee on all new timber window installations and carry full public liability insurance for your peace of mind.

"We are very happy with Eden Joinery's work: we had a completely new sash fitted, and four sashes fitted into our existing frames. Our windows look fantastic - and no more draughts! Terry and son were courteous, tidy, with competitive rates, and took obvious pride in their work. They went the extra mile to fix a problem with one of our frames, and all windows were finished to a high standard. We would not hesitate to recommend them."

Double Glazing & Restoration Guidance

Frequently Asked Questions

Practical guidance from Charlie Burgess on upgrading your timber sashes with double glazing, satisfying conservation standards, and draught-proofing period homes across South London.

Can you double glaze my existing original sash boxes?

+

In many cases, yes. If your original box frames are in good structural condition, we can manufacture new timber sashes fitted with double glazing that sit directly into the existing frames. This avoids the need for major structural work and preserves your interior architraves and plasterwork. During the survey, Charlie will check for any rot in the sills or pulley stiles that may need splicing before the new sashes are fitted.

Will I need planning permission for double glazing in a conservation area?

+

Like-for-like timber repairs often do not require formal planning permission, but installing double glazing in a conservation area or a listed building can be more complex. Many councils in Wandsworth, Lambeth, and Richmond now look favourably on timber units that match the original profiles. We can advise you on the specific requirements for your local authority to ensure your upgrade is compliant.

How much of a difference does draught proofing make?

+

Draught proofing is one of the most cost-effective ways to improve a period home. By installing hidden brush seals, we close the gaps that allow heat to escape and cold air to whistle through. When combined with our double glazing, it can significantly lower your heating bills and almost entirely eliminate the rattles common with older Victorian windows.

What is the benefit of double-glazed units over standard double glazing?

+

Standard double-glazed units are typically 20mm to 24mm thick, which requires very chunky timber frames that look out of place on a period property. Our double-glazed units use advanced thermal technology to provide similar insulation levels in a much thinner profile. This allows us to maintain the authentic "sightlines" of your windows, ensuring they look like the original single-glazed sashes while providing modern A-rated thermal performance.

How long does the installation process take?

+

The timeline depends on the number of windows, but a standard room can often be completed in a day or two. We work cleanly and efficiently, ensuring your home is secure at the end of every working day. Because we are based in Battersea, we are local to South West London and Surrey, which allows us to manage logistics and site visits effectively without long delays.
