uPVC Window Style 1 – Casement Windows
Features and Benefits summary:
• Great ventilation• Highly energy-efficient• Aesthetically pleasing• Modern design and build
Casement windows are hinged at the side and open outward, often operated with a crank mechanism. These windows offer an aesthetic and modern appearance, making them a popular choice for contemporary homes.
Casement windows offer great ventilation because of their wide opening angle which is perfect for letting in fresh air and allowing for optimum air circulation throughout the building. They’re also energy efficient thanks to the casement window seals which keeps hot air in.
In our opinion, casement windows always look fantastic with a variety of customisation options available too. Furthermore, due to the modern build and design, there are solid safety and security features added to casement windows which may be appealing to you.
uPVC Window Style 2 – Bay Windows
• Increased natural light• Enhances spacial awareness• Bay windows ooze elegance• Suitable option for many properties
Bay windows are an architectural classic and can be found on period or older properties normally. They extend outwards from the home’s exterior, forming a small nook inside. These windows typically consist of a large central window accompanied by two smaller windows on the sides.
Due to the size of a bay window, you can get a tonne of natural light coming into your property which makes it feel much lighter and brighter. With the way a bay window is made, with the embodiment of the window sticking out, it can actually make the room feel a little bigger, which is a bonus too.
Bay windows are a great choice for homes with traditional or Victorian architectural styles. They add a touch of elegance and can be a focal point in both the interior and exterior design of your home. You can now also get bay windows in uPVC as opposed to just timber which adds modern performance.
uPVC Window Style 3 – Tilt & Turn Windows
• Extremely versatile uPVC window style• Swing open for easy access• Modern in design• Highly energy-efficient
Tilt and turn windows offer dual functionality when it comes to opening and closing them. These windows can be opened in two ways. One way is by tilting the window inwards from the top for ventilation. The other way is to swing them open like a casement window.
Tilt and turn windows are worth considering for a number of reasons. They’re really versatile in the way they open and close which can be an advantage for a whole host of property types. With the flexibility you can also let in lots of air flow.
You can also easily clean these windows with the tilt function as they swing open for easy access. As tilt and turn windows are quite modern in design and structure you also get energy efficiency benefits as well as good security features.
uPVC Window Style 4 – Sash Windows

Sash windows are another beautiful uPVC window style which you’ll often find on more traditional properties. They work by sliding on vertical panels, known as sashes, which open and close by sliding up and down.
Although you can get more modern materials in sash windows such as uPVC, you will commonly find sash windows on older or period properties as they suit it better and were formally made from timber. They’re stunningly elegant, with a classic aesthetic and as previously mentioned you can get various styles and designs. Come and chat to our team about what we have available in stock.
