Restoration Tips for Your Sash Windows
Houses from the Georgian period have grown in popularity in recent years, and with their beautiful architecture on full show, it is easy to understand why. With that being said, some Georgian properties can come with a lot of work needing to be done and can easily look tired if not properly maintained. Simple renovations can make the world of difference in bringing not just a Georgian house to life, but any.
What makes Georgian Properties so Unique?
For those who may not necessarily be clued up on what a Georgian property is or what it looks like, it can be difficult to understand why they’re so sought after. A Georgian property is categorised as one that is built with symmetry and balance at the core of the architecture. You may notice from the front the multi-pane windows that are so distinctive of Georgian properties. Of course, if you’re going to get into the details, it is worth noting that these houses were built between 1700 and 1800, also known as the Georgian period.
How Georgian Sash Windows Can Improve Your Georgian Home
As mentioned before, the most distinctive indicator of a house from the Georgian period is the windows and that is where we see most people looking to make improvements.
