Soundproof Sash Windows in Edinburgh

An Edinburgh window deserves attention

A sash window can be a defining feature of a tenement or townhouse. Its proportions, glazing bars and visible frame details all contribute to the building. We consider those features before discussing a replacement, developing the design around the existing architecture rather than treating appearance as an afterthought.

The aim is a proposal that makes sense from the street and from the room, with the right opening arrangement for daily use.

Understand what reaches your rooms

Activity around the city centre, traffic and visitors can create a changing pattern of sound. A bedroom above a busy street may need a different approach from a living space at the rear. Your experience helps us understand where to focus.

We combine that conversation with acoustic assessment to consider the glass, seals and frame construction appropriate to the disturbance at your address.

Consider warmth as well as quiet

Older windows may also leave you concerned about draughts or cold rooms. Tell us about these issues at the outset so that the design brief considers the comfort of the space as a whole. We will explain the choices in clear terms.

Heritage requirements vary by property. Check the relevant position with the appropriate authority before agreeing any alterations to a listed building or a home within a conservation area.
