cost to refurb wooden bay sash window

[user1471504821]

Hi, wonder if any one can help. Having been quoted £2900 to replace our bay window with pvc, am now considering refurbing it and having double glazed panels added. The window is in 3 parts, and is approx 208cm in height, with its central glass panel (with sash fitting) being 88cm wide. Am hoping someone has had this done and can offer a ballpark figure before I go down the pvc route. Many thanks in advance!

Yes I heard that actually flaking paint can mean the wood is stronger (I think because the water can get out?)

I have lots of windows that aren't sash windows but starting here

Yes that’s what he said. I thought they were goners and he was like dw they look like they will be perfect and then went and stabbed it here and there and it was solid.

We did have to have the bottom rail replaced on a few of the windows. He cut them out and then put new accoya in just on that part.

All sounding promising! Holding out for a Midlands poster with a tradesman I can use, fingers crossed you all find similar
