As you know sash and case windows have been with us for centuries and are still going strong today mainly by town councills having the sense to make many buildings listed and conservation of areas, thus saving the sash and case window.
Your argument may be yes they look good but they are draughty and don't slide,when the wind blows they rattle.
True that might have been the problem years ago but with today's technology and expertise of craftsman they can be brought back to there former glory but on a more improved scale with draught proofing and double glazed units installed.You will have a window that can match and beat a upvc window in u value.
In today's market pepole are demanding more efficient windows,so they can have the comfort they want plus less carbon emmission going out through the window, which in turn saves on your bills.
Will the upvc windows you want still be in your house in 20 years? I doubt it very much.
If you look at all the great buildings around the United Kingdom you will see that they still have all the original windows and some of them are 300 years old.
So the next time you have the local double glazing salesman telling you how good his upvc window is ask him what the life expectancy is ? Not his 10 year guarantee that he is going on about.
