Which options suit homes in Binley?

Vertical sliding sash windows

uPVC sliding sashes reproduce the look of Victorian and Edwardian box sashes without the rattles, draughts and repainting. They use spiral balances instead of weights, tilt inwards for cleaning and can include decorative horns and astragal bars. They cost noticeably more than casements but keep the character of a period front.

Tilt-and-turn windows

One handle lets the window tilt inwards at the top for secure ventilation, or swing fully open like a door. Tilt-and-turn suits flats, upstairs rooms and wide openings where you want easy cleaning from inside. The frames are sturdy, lock at several points around the sash and can be specified to meet fire escape sizes.

uPVC windows in Binley: common questions

How much do new uPVC windows cost for a three-bed semi?

Most three-bed semis have eight to ten windows, and replacing them all in white uPVC typically costs around £3,800–£6,500 in total in the West Midlands, including fitting and removal of the old frames. A bay window, colour finishes or tilt-and-turn sashes push it higher. We price each window separately in your quote, so you can see exactly where the money goes and phase the work if you'd prefer.

Which postcodes in Binley do you work in?

We cover CV3 and the streets around them. If you're on the edge of Binley, neighbouring Wyken and Walsgrave are covered too.

How long does it take to replace the windows in a house?

Fitting usually takes one to two days for a typical house, working one opening at a time. The longer wait is manufacture: frames are made to measure after the survey, which normally takes four to six weeks. Bay windows or a large number of frames can add an extra day on site.

Does Coventry City Council need to approve my new windows?

You won't usually need planning permission, but the work must meet Building Regulations. Building control in Binley is provided by Coventry City Council or a registered building control approver, and some work is self-certified by registered installers.
