Period Charm Without the Drafts or Rattles
Authentic UPVC vertical sliding sash windows by Victorian Sliders, precision-fitted by our Martlesham team. Retain the classic elegance of your home while upgrading to A-Rated efficiency, high security, and easy tilt-to-clean functionality.
The Ultimate Timber Alternative
For decades, homeowners with traditional timber box sash windows faced a difficult choice: put up with rattling, drafts, and constant painting, or replace them with standard UPVC casements and ruin the period character of their home. Today, you don't have to compromise. From our Martlesham base, we install beautiful UPVC vertical sliding sashes for period homes across Woodbridge, Ipswich, Felixstowe, Kesgrave, and throughout Suffolk and Essex.
We partner exclusively with Victorian Sliders, the UK’s largest and most respected manufacturer of dedicated UPVC sash windows. Their ECOSlide system has been meticulously engineered to replicate original timber sightlines while integrating modern A-Rated thermal efficiency and high-security locking mechanisms. They even feature an ingenious inward-tilting mechanism, allowing you to clean the outside glass safely from within your room.
Whether you require standard replacements or highly authentic heritage upgrades for a conservation area, our fully employed fitting team ensures a flawless installation. Every project starts with a free survey, is fully FENSA-certified, and is covered by our 10-year guarantee.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Our Window Customers Say
Reviews related to our sash windows
Our Victorian townhouse was freezing in the winter because of the old wooden sashes. Homestyle fitted Victorian Sliders throughout and the house is completely transformed. So warm, and they look identical to the originals.
The tilt-to-clean feature on these windows is an absolute game-changer. We can clean the upstairs bedroom windows without a ladder. Superb service and the lead times were exactly as promised.
Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. We went for the heritage spec with the deep bottom rail and astragal bars, and you honestly cannot tell they are UPVC from the street.
Cannot recommend Homestyle enough. The fitters were polite, tidy, and their attention to detail on the finishing trims around our new sash bay window is exceptional.
