How we approach sash windows in PL19
We spec sash windows for Tavistock the way we do for every market town in Devon: by looking at the openings, the aspect and the surrounding builds — in this case granite victorian townhouses, moorland farmhouses, modern estate infill — before quoting a single frame.
Local knowledge matters here. Tavistock's market town streets and the wider PL19 district each throw up their own sash windows challenges — wind-driven rain ingress around aging seals and stone-thick reveals making cheap upvc look out of place being the two we plan around first.
West Devon Borough Council covers Tavistock, and we know its quirks well. From granite victorian townhouses to exposed market town frontages, our sash windows is matched to the local weather, access and street character around PL19.
