Sliding Sash Windows in Blandford Forum
After the great fire of 1731, Blandford Forum was rebuilt almost in one go, and the result is one of the finest Georgian towns in England. The Market Place, East Street, Salisbury Street and The Close are lined with red brick fronts, stone dressings and tall sliding sashes, many of them on listed buildings. Away from the centre, Victorian terraces carry on the tradition with sashes of their own, often with margin lights or a simple two-over-two pattern. Across the river, Blandford St Mary and Bryanston have their share of period houses as well.
Where a Georgian or Victorian sash is being replaced, the Roseview Ultimate Rose keeps the proportions that matter. The meeting rail is a slim 35mm, the corners are mechanically jointed in the way a joiner would make them, and the horns run through rather than being stuck on. Double glazing comes as standard, with an A rating, and there is no repainting every few years. The Rose Collection is a good fit for the terraces, with woodgrain finishes and astragal bars. Kenny drives down the A350 to survey each job, and our own team fits it.
A few miles down the road, we recently fitted a white Ultimate Rose sash window in Sturminster Marshall.
Sash Windows for Blandford’s Georgian Streets
Much of central Blandford is a conservation area, and a large number of its buildings are listed, so speak to us before you set your heart on a particular window. Dorset Council may need to grant consent, and Kenny will advise on the likely route. Georgian fronts usually call for six-over-six glazing bars and no horns, while the Victorian terraces suit two-over-two with a traditional horn. Against Blandford’s red brick, a white or off-white woodgrain finish looks right, and a soft grey can work well on a rendered house. Bringing a photo of the original windows, if you have one, helps us match the detail.

Sliding Sash Windows in Blandford Forum: Your Questions Answered
Which areas around Blandford Forum do you cover?
We cover the whole of Blandford Forum along with Pimperne, Bryanston, Blandford St Mary, Durweston, Spetisbury and the Tarrant valley, and we also work in Wimborne and Sturminster Newton.
Will Dorset Council allow uPVC sashes on a Blandford town house?
That depends on the house. If it is listed, listed building consent will usually be needed, and Dorset Council may ask for timber, which we can also fit. For an unlisted terrace or townhouse, a well-made uPVC sash such as the Roseview Ultimate Rose, with its run-through horns and mechanical joints, is often a sympathetic choice. Kenny will advise after his survey.
What makes the Roseview Ultimate Rose look like a timber sash?
It has a slim 35mm meeting rail, true mechanically jointed construction with the joints arranged like traditional joinery, and seamless run-through sash horns in several styles. From the street it reads like a well-made timber sash, without the regular painting.
What guarantee do your windows come with?
Frames and sealed glass units are guaranteed for 10 years, hardware for 2 years and our workmanship for 10 years, all backed by an insurance-backed guarantee through HomePro.
How much do sliding sash windows cost?
It depends on the number and size of the windows, the range you choose, the colour, the horns and the glass. Every window is made to measure, so the only way to give an accurate price is to survey your home. The survey and quote are free, and we are rarely beaten on price for a genuine like-for-like quotation.
