uPVC Flush Casement Windows
If uPVC had been available to builders in the past, they would have used it. No one disputes the beauty of timber, but it has drawbacks. In the wet, it can swell. In dry conditions, it can shrink. It can warp or twist and whatever else you do, you’ll always have to find the time to take good care of it.
Imagine never having to paint a window. Imagine never having a window already welded shut with layers of paint. PVC-U windows are tough, durable and insulating. They need hardly any maintenance. They open easily and when they’re closed, they are secure.

Our uPVC Flush Casement windows are virtually indistinguishable from timber but have two major advantages. Firstly, they are more affordable and can make a huge improvement to the comfort and appearance of a property where timber alternatives may be prohibitively expensive.
Secondly, their insulating qualities, easy maintenance and recyclability make them an environmentally-friendly alternative.
There’s a fine line between preserving our heritage and being stuck in the past. Many planning authorities recognise this and although there are a few cases where original materials are the only acceptable option, these are becoming fewer and further apart. Conservation areas and even listed buildings now have their share of uPVC windows. The reasons are simple: the appearance has been perfected.
Our sightlines are spot on. Our Flush Casements have perfectly balanced dummy sashes there is a deep bottom rail available. There is a great selection of period colours and wood-effect finishes, including a timber-grained, white or cream painted effect, which avoids potential unease about the smooth surface of uPVC.
Part of transforming a house into a home is, of course, about the people who live there, but on a more practical level, comfort, performance and security are critical. It’s hard to feel relaxed if your house is cold. It’s even harder if your windows rattle every time there’s more than a gentle breeze or if water penetrates when it’s raining. Fortunately, you don’t have to put up with things like that. Modern materials and glazing technologies have made homes warmer, safer and more secure. They have made windows that are easier to look after and kinder to the planet. And now that there are high-performing, uPVC Flush Casement windows you can feel really at home in your special home.
Every detail
There are no corners cut, no detail left out that should be there. We’ve looked at every aspect of our window design, every angle, every joint, and every groove – even the positioning of screws you’ll never see. Hardware is perfect, colours appropriate, proportions exactly right. Everything matters. Every, little thing.
Safe and secure
Style matters, but so does security. That’s why our profiles are robust and impact-resistant and our locking systems advanced. Simple measures, like toughened glass in windows that are 600mm or wider from floor level. Egress hinges which ensure you’ve got an escape route in case of emergency, help to keep your family safe and sound.
Insulated
When it’s cold outside, you want to be warm indoors. When the sun’s blazing, you don’t want to overheat. Smart glass technologies and multi-chambered frames insulate your home, not just from fluctuating temperatures but also from external noise. No draughts, no cold spots, just peace, quiet, and year-round comfort. Our flush casement windows come as A-Rated as standard.
Lines and proportions We’ve thought of it all: the right-sized frame with the right-sized window, and transoms, mullions and dummy sashes that create the authentic appearance and lines of a traditional flush casement.
The shape is chamfered on the outside to shed the rain, and for indoors we incorporate a sculptured bead for that classical feel.
Colour – We’ve not quite got all the colours of the rainbow, but we’ve got more than enough beautiful shades, wood effects and textures to satisfy. If you want something that’s not shown in our swatch book, we can probably do that too – just ask. You can even choose a different colour and finish for indoors and out. Whether you want to stand out or blend in, we’ll do all we can to match your dreams and find the perfect finish for your site and your home.
