Flush Sash Windows
What are uPVC flush sash windows?
At Balhousie, we understand the importance of finding the perfect windows for your home. UPVC flush sash windows are a popular choice, combining traditional aesthetics with modern technology.
UPVC flush sash windows are designed to mimic the appearance of classic timber windows, offering a timeless, elegant look. The defining feature of these windows is their flush design—when closed, the sash sits level with the window frame, creating a smooth, streamlined appearance that adds a refined, minimalist touch to any home.
This clean, flat finish gives them a more polished look compared to standard uPVC windows, making them ideal for both period properties and more contemporary homes.
While they capture the charm of traditional sash windows, uPVC flush sash windows come with all the advantages of modern materials. Made from durable, low-maintenance uPVC, these windows are resistant to warping, rotting, and fading, unlike traditional timber. This means they retain their appearance and functionality for years with minimal upkeep.
Additionally, they provide excellent energy efficiency and insulation, helping to keep your home comfortable throughout the year while reducing energy costs.
