Options to consider in Stourport-on-Severn
Flush sash casements
A casement where the opening sash sits level with the outer frame instead of overlapping it, copying the look of traditional timber joinery. Flush frames cost more than standard casements but suit period terraces and cottages well, especially in heritage colours with traditional-style hinges and monkey-tail or pear-drop handles.
Bay and bow windows
Bays are three or more windows set at angles; bows are a gentle curve of four or five. Replacement bays are built with structural bay poles or posts so the window doesn't carry the load of the brickwork or roof above. We check whether the existing bay is load-bearing before quoting, because that changes how it's supported during the swap.
How much should you budget in Stourport-on-Severn?
Expect to budget between £380 and £2,600 per window in Stourport-on-Severn. Standard white casement, about 1,200 × 1,200 mm, with trickle vent and old frame removed: typically £420–£640 per window.

Your questions answered
What guarantee comes with new windows?
Frames, glass and hardware are covered by the manufacturer's guarantee, and the terms for your specific windows are set out in your quote. Ask what's covered for sealed units misting up, hinges and locks, as these differ between suppliers. Keep the guarantee paperwork with your building regulations certificate, because both are useful when you come to sell.
Which postcodes in Stourport-on-Severn do you work in?
We cover DY13 and the streets around them. If you're on the edge of Stourport-on-Severn, neighbouring Kidderminster and Bewdley 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.
