Beatiful new window!

Ventrolla recently replaced my old wooden bay window and i could not be happier. I was worried about losing the vintage character but its even more beautiful than my original window! Great communication from the company and Wayne when planning. Carl and Dean did an amazing job during instillation; polite, quick and a perfect finish. Love my new window and couldn't recommend the company more!

Superb job

Superb job. Ventrolla supplied and installed 10 windows, french windows, back door and front door. The job was very well managed with accurate quote. All the windows were well manufactured and fitted well. Everything ran like clockwork, everything arrived as planned and fitted correctly. Installation work was to a very high standard, by Scott and Andy, and also Mollie and Wayne managing things very well. Manufacture of the windows and doors was to an impressive standard and I think they look very good. Also very pleased with the stained glass provided for the front door. All in all an excellent job.

Lovely work

We had a number of the sash windows in our listed building refurbished. The whole Ventrolla team was responsive and accommodating. They kept us informed and respected our timing requirements. Justin, who undertook the work was a pleasure to have around. He kept us informed throughout and did a splendid job.

About Nottingham architecture

Nottingham’s window heritage is shaped by its industrial past. Residential sash windows across Victorian terraces carry the usual ageing issues: perished cords, rattles, draughts, and paint build-up. Industrial glazing in the lace-market buildings brings its own challenges – large multi-pane openings, rotten cills, failed putty, and the specialist work required to restore both visual character and performance.

Our award-winning Ventrolla Perimeter Sealing System (VPSS™), Sash Removal System (SRS™), and specialist glazing services address all of it with up to 30% energy efficiency and noise reduction from the highest performing vacuum glazing. Nottingham’s architectural identity stays intact, and the efficiency and security catch up with the modern day.

Frequently asked questions

01

Why are Nottingham homeowners restoring their original timber sash windows?

Many Nottingham properties, particularly Victorian terraces, Edwardian homes and character properties, still feature original timber sash windows that form an important part of their architectural identity. Rather than removing these traditional features, many homeowners are choosing professional restoration to improve performance, preserve character and maintain the unique appearance of their property.

02

Can Ventrolla restore sash windows in older Nottingham suburbs and period neighbourhoods?

Yes. Ventrolla works across Nottingham and the surrounding Nottinghamshire areas, restoring timber sash and casement windows in a wide range of period homes. From Victorian villas and traditional terraces to larger character properties, our specialists understand the construction methods and detailing found in older Nottingham housing.

03

My sash windows look worn and outdated, can they be brought back to life?

In many cases, yes. Timber windows that appear tired may only require specialist restoration rather than replacement. Ventrolla can repair damaged timber, restore smooth operation, replace worn components and improve performance while retaining the original craftsmanship and proportions of the window.

04

How can I make my Nottingham period home warmer without changing its appearance?

Many older homes experience heat loss through poorly performing windows. Ventrolla provides discreet solutions including our Ventrolla Perimeter Sealing System (VPSS), which helps reduce draughts, improve comfort and minimise rattling while keeping the traditional appearance of timber sash windows intact.

05

Do you restore windows in Nottingham conservation areas?

Yes. Nottingham has a number of historically important areas where preserving original architectural features is a key consideration. Ventrolla specialises in sympathetic restoration, helping homeowners improve their windows while retaining the character and visual integrity of heritage properties.

06

Are Victorian sash windows common in Nottingham properties?

Yes. Nottingham has a significant number of Victorian and Edwardian homes featuring traditional timber sash windows. These properties often contain original features that contribute to their charm and value. Professional restoration can help protect these features while adapting them for modern standards of comfort and usability.

07

Can window restoration help reduce noise from busy Nottingham roads?

Yes. Homes located near city-centre routes, commuter areas or busy neighbourhood roads can often benefit from improved window performance. Restoration, draught-proofing and secondary glazing options can help reduce external noise while allowing homeowners to retain their original timber windows.

08

What is involved in restoring a sash window that no longer opens properly?

Windows that stick, jam or have become difficult to operate often suffer from issues such as damaged cords, paint build-up, worn components or movement within the timber. Ventrolla’s restoration process carefully addresses these problems, helping return windows to smooth and reliable operation.

09

Is restoring timber windows a sustainable alternative to replacement?

Yes. Restoring existing windows reduces waste, preserves original materials and avoids unnecessary replacement of quality timber that may still have many years of service remaining. For homeowners looking to improve their property’s sustainability while protecting its character, restoration offers a practical solution.
