Sliding sash windows in Basingstoke
A small market town that was expanded on a very large scale, so most of the housing is more recent than the name suggests.
What is built in Basingstoke
Basingstoke keeps a modest historic core, but the town was expanded substantially from the 1960s onward under London overspill agreements, and the great majority of its housing dates from then: postwar estates, later development in every direction, and continued building on the edges. Victorian terraces survive close to the old centre and the railway, and the surrounding villages hold older brick and flint stock of a quite different character.
What that means for your windows
On expanded town housing the sash window is a deliberate change of appearance rather than a restoration, and that shifts the important decisions onto finish and detail: the deeper bottom rail, the sash horns, the bar layout and the foil. It also makes Basingstoke a strong supply-only market, because there is enough building and refurbishment activity that contractors order against their own schedules and fit with their own teams.
Two ways to buy in Basingstoke
Basingstoke is inside the area our own fitting teams cover, so you can have the whole job done by one company. You can also buy the windows on their own if you have a builder already, which is how most trade customers order.
- Supplied and fitted. We survey your openings before anything is ordered, so the sizes are our responsibility rather than yours. Our own teams fit, take the old windows away and make good the plaster line, and you get a FENSA certificate and an insurance-backed guarantee on completion.
- Supplied only. You send a schedule of sizes, choose the colour, glass, hardware and glazing bar layout, and the windows are delivered kerbside for your own fitter. Popular with builders, developers, self-builders and landlords. On a supply-only order the sizes are yours, because nobody from our side has seen the openings.

Questions we get asked in Basingstoke
Do you deliver supply-only orders across Hampshire?
Supply only is delivered anywhere in Great Britain, kerbside, so Hampshire is straightforward. You send a schedule of sizes, choose the specification, and the lead time is confirmed in writing before you commit. Someone needs to be on site to receive and sign for the load.
What should I check when the windows arrive?
Check the load against the schedule and inspect for visible damage before signing, then note anything on the delivery paperwork. Damage should be reported within 48 hours. Doing that before booking scaffolding or other trades around the delivery is what stops a small problem becoming an expensive one.
