Listed Building Sash Windows

Grade II Listed building with new and upgraded sash windows by Ryedale Joinery.
New & Upgraded Timber Sash Windows

Traditional Windows for Listed Building

The extensive period property above is a grade II listed building. We recently manufactured and installed six new sash windows and upgraded ten more. To comply with local listed building regulations, we used slimline double-glazed units for all glazings. Traditional windows make an essential contribution to the significance of historic buildings. So we always strive to replicate the original historic wooden windows whilst adding double-glazed units to improve thermal efficiency and internal comfort levels.

Timber Durability and Longevity

The window frames and sliding sashes are in Accoya timber. Accoya provides the best value for money because of its durability and guaranteed longevity. To understand more about the importance of Accoya timber and its green credentials, it is worth taking a few minutes to watch the short VIDEO on our website.

Painting Wooden Windows

The wooden window frames and sliding sashes were spray-painted at our Kirby Misperton workshop in North Yorkshire. We paint woodwork during our integrated manufacturing process. Painting wooden products (during manufacture) makes sense because the exposed wood is sealed and weather-protected before installation.

Accoya and Tricoya Woodwork

We manufactured and installed the above external door at a property in North Yorkshire.

The woodwork is in Accoya and Tricoya timber. Those modified timber types provide extreme durability, which is ideal for the British climate.  We have a short video on our website, which explains all the benefits of Accoya.

The door was spray painted and pre-finished at our own in-house spraying facility at Kirby Misperton.  Painting wooden products (during manufacture) makes sense because the exposed wood is sealed and weather-protected before installation.

Double Glazing

The satin glass is in quality double-glazed units. The ironwork consists of Astra chrome handles and a satin-chrome letterbox.

A quality external door makes a considerable difference to the visual impact of a property.  It is the first thing visitors see and the last thing as they leave.

Sash and Casement Windows

We use traditional craft skills to manufacture and install a wide range of timber products – including sash windows, casement windows, and period doors. Our joinery manufacturing is undertaken by qualified craftsmen and guaranteed.
