Deceuninck Heritage Flush Sash Windows

Authentic flush timber-look windows for heritage and modern homes

The Deceuninck Heritage Flush Sash is the definitive choice for homeowners who want the unmistakable look of a traditional timber window without the maintenance โ€” or the carbon footprint. Internally and externally flush, with authentic 19th-century proportions, ovolo glazing detail, and the deep mechanical-jointed corners of the original timber casements it replaces.

Specified across some of Staffordshire's most sensitive conservation areas, Heritage Flush Sash is approved for use in listed and period properties โ€” yet delivers contemporary thermal, security and weather performance that timber simply cannot match.

Every Heritage installation by SGS is hand-finished, individually surveyed and installed by our own time-served fitters. The result: heritage character that lasts, performance you can feel, and kerb appeal that turns heads.

Energy efficiency
A++

The Heritage Flush Sash achieves a Window Energy Rating of A++ as standard โ€” the highest available โ€” with whole-window U-values down to 1.2 W/mยฒK. Triple glazing further reduces this to 0.8 W/mยฒK, exceeding new-build Building Regulations.

For heritage properties this matters: replacing timber single-glazing typically reduces heat loss through the windows by 75โ€“90%, with EPC ratings improving by one or two bands.

Security

Engineered to protect

Heritage doesn't mean vulnerable. Every Heritage Flush Sash window is internally beaded โ€” meaning the glass cannot be levered out from outside โ€” and ships with Yale multi-point shootbolt locking and anti-snap, anti-pick, anti-bump cylinders to PAS24:2016.

For policyholders insured under the ABI Secured by Design discount scheme, our Heritage Flush Sash specification qualifies for premium reductions with most major UK insurers.

Common questions

Frequently asked

Will Heritage Flush Sash windows be approved in a conservation area? +
In the vast majority of cases yes โ€” the flush sash profile and ovolo detailing satisfies most local planning departments. We've installed Heritage Flush Sash across conservation areas in Stafford, Lichfield, Stone and Uttoxeter. We'll handle the planning enquiry as part of our quotation if needed.
How does the Heritage profile differ from a standard flush window? +
The mechanical-jointed corners replicate traditional timber joinery rather than the welded mitred corners of standard uPVC. The depth of the ovolo glazing detail is also closer to original timber sections. Side-by-side, the difference is significant.
How long does installation typically take? +
Most window or door installations are completed in 1โ€“3 days, depending on the property. Full-house installations are usually finished within a week with no mess and minimal disruption โ€” we tidy up at the end of every day.
Do you offer a guarantee? +
Every installation comes with a 10-year insurance-backed workmanship guarantee, alongside the manufacturer's product warranty (typically 10โ€“25 years on the frame and sealed units).
Can I match my existing windows or doors? +
Yes โ€” we offer the full range of foiled timber-look finishes plus modern colours including Anthracite Grey, Chartwell Green and Black, so we can either match what you have or freshen the whole property.
Are your installers FENSA registered? +
Yes. SGS is a fully FENSA-registered installer. You'll receive a FENSA certificate after installation that satisfies Building Regulations requirements without the need for a separate Council inspection.
