Have 16 sash windows in victorian house. Am about to renovate, house not touched for 40 years and is draughty. Husband feels cold so warmth is priority. Have had 3/4 quotes to replace. A variety timber v.pvc but the windows, especially 2 bays at front are gorgeous looking and have beautiful arches, wont be able to replace like for like even if go for timber as will be ££££. Anyones experience of sash window refurbishment?? Can it be warmer?? One guy was about to quote on secondary glazing but then told me the wood was too rotten so he really advised against. But maybe he just trying to sell new ones?? Can it work even if wood rotten?? Help please!
