Upvc sash windows

Can't find any recent threads about this. We are renovating a Victorian property which currently has v unattractive PVC windows (approx 30 years old we understand). We are thinking about having them replaced with sash windows, which will look much better. But, we are also thinking about PVC rather than wood because of the maintenance wood requires. House is 3 storey so scaffolding would be needed, and it just seems such an effort and expense to do on a regular basis. Would really rather be doing other things with my time.

Has anyone got PVC sash windows? Are you happy with them? Any recommendations in the midlands?

I personally think UPVC sash windows are a fantastic alternative to your traditional sash windows. Yes these wooden windows look lovely but unfortunately they don't offer the best insulation and sometimes security.

I've worked on a lot of home improvements and I have to say that replacement sash windows are very popular. They immediately further the value of your property and allow you to make the most of both traditional aesthetics and modern technology...I'm baffling on now!

Anyways, this is a good read!
