Bespoke sash windows & timber doors in Chelsea
Sash window restoration and replacement, bespoke timber doors and complete façade works for Chelsea’s period properties.
Chelsea’s architectural character
The character of the property should guide the work.
Chelsea is home to stucco terraces, red-brick mansion blocks, townhouses and mews properties, where sash windows, entrance joinery and exterior finishes all contribute to the character of the building.
This variety is why STILE assesses each opening individually. Even neighbouring properties can have very different joinery, repair histories, glazing and levels of deterioration.
