What are flush sash windows?

Flush sash windows look like traditional timber frames, but are made from modern uPVC or aluminium. Unlike standard casement windows, the sash sits perfectly flush within the outer frame, creating a flat, elegant appearance.

They are particularly popular in:

• Heritage homes – where timber-effect finishes are required by planning authorities.

• Modern properties – where homeowners want clean, minimalist lines.

Example: A homeowner in Penarth upgraded to cream flush sash windows with woodgrain foil, maintaining period charm while eliminating the need for repainting.

Why are flush sash windows ideal for South Wales homes?

Flush sash windows suit the varied housing styles across Cardiff and South Wales:

• Cardiff conservation areas – replicate timber sashes without breaching planning rules.

• Caerphilly new-builds – modern grey or black flush designs complement contemporary houses.

• Rural cottages – woodgrain foils give authenticity without ongoing timber maintenance.

This adaptability makes flush sash windows one of the most versatile design-led upgrades for South Wales homes.

How energy efficient are flush sash windows?

Despite their traditional look, flush sash windows are built to today’s efficiency standards:

• A+ rated glazing with argon-filled units.

• Triple glazing options for enhanced insulation.

• Thermally efficient multi-chamber frames.

• Weather seals for draught and condensation prevention.

The Energy Saving Trust confirms that replacing single-glazed timber frames with double-glazed flush sash windows can save £150–£200 annually in heating bills.

How secure are flush sash windows?

Daimant installs flush sash windows with advanced safety features:

• Multi-point locking systems integrated into the frame.

• PAS 24 certification for enhanced security.

• Optional restrictors for safe partial openings.

• Toughened or laminated glass for additional strength.

These features ensure your home remains protected while retaining a period-style appearance.

What design options are available with flush sash windows?

Homeowners can customise flush sash windows to match their property style:

• Colours & Finishes – heritage creams, greens, or timber foils; modern anthracite grey or black.

• Glazing Styles – Georgian bars, decorative patterns, frosted or clear.

• Frame Materials – uPVC for low-maintenance affordability; aluminium for slimline, contemporary lines.

• Hardware Choices – traditional monkey-tail handles for heritage homes, or sleek chrome for modern builds.

Example: In Llandaff, Cardiff, a listed property owner chose timber-look flush sash windows with Georgian bars to gain planning approval.
