Choosing The Perfect Window Styles to Suit Your Property

When designing and building your dream home, it’s essential to ensure the outside design of your property is as impressive as the inside, highlighting the importance of considering the style of all aspects of your plans.

When designing the interior of your home, there are countless implementations you can utilise to convey your style and personality. However, when constructing the exterior of your home, there are limited options available to create a finished product you are happy with. The biggest way you can transform the exterior of your home is by utilising the perfect window styles to match your home’s aesthetic.

In this article, we will discuss the different window styles available when working with a specialist like ecoHaus and how we can help revolutionise your property.

Different Window Styles

When choosing the perfect window styles for your property, it can be hard to know the best solution for the layout of your home and the space surrounding its location. Each window style has its own benefits and drawbacks, making it essential to choose a well thought out and considered solution, such as the opening style, the look and style of the property, and more.

Below, we have covered some of the most popular window styles we provide and the benefits of working with a trusted supplier like us.

Casement

A casement window is one of the most common styles of window in the UK, seen across a variety of different homes due to its great functionality and versatility with a wide range of configurations available, making them ideal for all types of properties.

This type of window opens outwards to the exterior or inwards to the interior with one or more hinges on the side, top or bottom of the frame. Additionally, this window style can be opened fully or partially to accommodate your preferences, making them ideal for all times of the year, showcasing their improved flexibility.

Our range of Internorm windows open inward, making them easy to reach and clean.

Tilt & Turn

A tilt-and-turn window does what it says on the tin, either tilting or turning, offering a choice of openings and security features. A tilt-and-turn window style has a different functionality to casement windows, opening into the property and allowing homeowners to clean the outside of their windows from the interior of their home.

Additionally, these windows provide improved security, allowing you to leave a window open for airflow while keeping out bad weather and potential intruders. We have a selection of tilt-and-turn windows, such as the Visiline Alu 5 range, which pairs perfectly with our other offerings.

Sash

Sash windows are typically seen on period houses, particularly on Georgian and Victorian builds, which, if listed, need to be replaced like-for-like. Our solutions provide the perfect combination of modern vintage, with great thermal efficiency and insulation, whilst fitting seamlessly with the old-style aesthetic.

Sash window styles include two frame panels or sashes, allowing them to be opened and closed vertically or horizontally and providing a sense of elegance and luxury.

Bay

A bay window projects outwards from the main wall of a property, creating a bay within a room and typically includes a centralised sash window with two angled casement windows on either side of it.

These windows provide a lot of natural light and additional space for seating or ornaments. This is an older-fashioned window style, but the experts here at ecoHaus can implement a range of different casement styles and finishes designed to suit the opening. We will work closely with the architect or builder in charge of your project to ensure the right steps are taken before and after glazing installation.

Sliding

A sliding window opens by vertically or horizontally sliding along a track, offering improved space-saving offerings compared to traditional hinge-style windows. These types of windows are typically used for larger windows, suiting contemporary properties, allowing you to open up the inside of your house to the outside patio or decking.

Aluminium is a popular construction material for sliding windows because of its durability, easy clean characteristics and insulating properties.

Skylights

A skylight is a window integrated into the house’s structure itself, often confused with a roof window. A skylight is installed in a fixed position and on a flat surface – perfect for letting in natural light and common on building extensions.

A roof window is installed when you require both natural light and fresh air, providing the ability to open the window outwards.

Window Material Styles
