WOODEN SASH WINDOWS

It doesn’t discolour over time like PVCu and can be over-painted – that’s just two of the reasons that Patchett Joinery is championing wooden sash windows. Not being a sealed unit, they can be replaced in part if they are damaged, which means the homeowner doesn’t need to go to the expense of buying an entire window unit. Moreover, the up and down opening mechanism eliminates the need to stretch over units or furniture to open the window.

ROOFING COMPONENTS

Safety and breathability are two priority design features for Klober’s product range. The Permo Air breathable membrane does not require additional ventilation, for example, reducing the risk of condensation in the roof space. Four-layer breathable membranes, such as Permo Forte, which include reinforced grids, offer increased strength and durability during installation, which is particularly advantageous in windy, icy or wet weather.
