    Replacing timber, single-glazed sash and case bay, front bedroom window and rear bathroom window, with UVPC doubleglazed sash and case. UVPC sash and case windows will be white in colour, will match the current number, orientation, and colouring of panes, and will match the current astragal bars. However, the exact thickness of the frame may differ slightly from existing wooden sash and case. I am using the 'legacy UPVC sash and case' frame from 'celsius windows'. The rear patio door is also to be replaced. As far as I am aware the rear patio door, and rear bathroom window are covered under 'permissive development', but I have attached photos along of these also.
