Sliding sash windows in Salisbury
A cathedral city on a medieval grid, with a Close of exceptional quality and a very protected centre.
What is built in Salisbury
Salisbury is laid out on its medieval chequers, with timber framed buildings, Georgian brick frontages over older structures, and the Cathedral Close holding some of the finest domestic architecture in the country, almost all of it listed. Around the centre there are Victorian and Edwardian terraces and villas built as the city expanded, and twentieth century housing spreading up the slopes and out along the river valleys.
What that means for your windows
The historic core is as constrained as anywhere we work, and the only sensible order of operations is to establish the local authority's position first. Outside it, the Victorian and Edwardian belt is straightforward and rewarding, with tall openings and elevations built around them. The city sits where five rivers meet, so on low lying properties the water tightness figures and the colour matched weather bar are worth attention rather than assumption.
Two ways to buy in Salisbury
Salisbury 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.
1.3 W/m²K as standard, 1.2 with enhanced glazing.

Questions we get asked in Salisbury
Is Salisbury inside your installation area?
Yes, it is at the western edge of our fitting catchment. Salisbury is in Wiltshire rather than Hampshire, though it is often grouped with the Hampshire towns nearby, and we cover it either way. Beyond the catchment, supply only reaches anywhere in Great Britain.
Do you work on properties near the rivers?
Yes. On a low lying riverside property the relevant figures are water tightness at Class 7A at 300 Pa and air permeability at Class 4 at 600 Pa, with a made to measure weather bar mechanically joined to the bottom sash and colour matched to the frame, which is what pushes driven rain clear of the sill.
