1930s House Renovation Ideas
Between 1919 and 1939, more than four million homes were built in the UK. Massive expansion was needed in every town and city across the country to meet the demands of a growing population. During this time, many people moved to the suburbs to buy their dream homes and start a family.
Especially the semi-detached houses made a big hit in the 1930s. Currently, in the 21st century, the 1930s semi-detached houses still remain popular by becoming synonymous with spacious accommodation, quality craftsmanship, and a mixture of styles, from the sleek ‘moderne’ to the ‘pseudo’ historical.
1930s style homes often took inspiration from the Art Deco movement, with curved bay windows a prominent feature in many houses of the time. Architects also looked back through history for inspiration, with many 1930s houses featuring mock Tudor timbered sections and Neo-Georgian sash windows.
If you live in a 1930s style home that needs renovation, you probably are considering traditional sash windows as an option. Here is expert advice from the Rose Collection team on window renovation ideas you might want to check out for your 1930s home.
uPVC Sash Windows For 1930s House Styles
One of the Rose Collection’s most popular uPVC sash window, the Ultimate Rose is suitable for both old and new properties. Designed and manufactured by Roseview, it is available in a variety of styles to perfectly complement your property. Because of its superb thermal efficiency levels, it is an excellent choice for 1930s houses.
Original 1930s windows were often prone to draughts and cold spots. With the Charisma Rose, these will soon be a thing of the past. Its multi-chambered frame, energy efficient glass, and triple seals will give you a warmer home and reduce your heating bills.
If your 1930s house is fitted with casement windows, our sash windows make the perfect replacement. Their smooth sliding sash provides a much wider opening than a standard casement, offering expansive views and better ventilation.
Aesthetically, seamless welds and mechanical joints in our sash windows are also far more attractive than visibly welded joints. The authentic features of our uPVC sash windows are designed using modern, high performing materials that match traditional timber for their classic look.
Bespoke Double Glazing For Your 1930s House
1930s windows’ styles often featured stained glass designs on the top panel. As part of our extensive service at Rose Collection, we can supply bespoke 1930s windows with coloured glass sections and stained glass designs. Choose a sunburst sash window design with bold colours for the true Art Deco look. We also offer a range of obscure glass, perfect for bathroom windows or areas of your 1930s house where you want more privacy.
