A Brush with History: Ace Windows Marries Modern Performance with Timeless Charm

Ace Windows, a highly respected installer of premium windows and doors, based in Paisley, are renowned for excellent customer service, and have once again gone the extra mile on a significant home renovation project in the area.  

Initially, Ace Windows was approached by homeowners from the West End of Glasgow at their Paisley showroom. They faced the challenge of enhancing their historic home’s kerb appeal while respecting its traditional aesthetics. The solution was clear: ECOSlide PVCu sash windows from Victorian Sliders.  

Ace Windows, known for their meticulous craftsmanship, recommended ECOSlide PVCu sash windows for their ability to seamlessly integrate with the home’s traditional style. These windows transformed the facade, preserving the historical charm without compromising on modern performance.  

ECOSlide sashes offer numerous modern advantages, including:  

  • Energy Efficiency: Achieving A+ window energy ratings, minimising heat loss, reducing energy bills, and providing a more comfortable living space.  
  • Ease of Maintenance: The advanced tilt-in feature allows for effortless cleaning from inside the home.  
  • Security: Toughened glass, key-operated locks, and an integrated anti-jemmy security bar provide a formidable barrier against intruders, ensuring peace of mind.  
  • Low Maintenance: Unlike traditional timber windows, PVCu requires minimal upkeep, retaining its pristine beauty for years.  

Understanding the importance of maintaining the heritage feel in the West End of Glasgow, Ace Windows suggested adding ‘putty lines’ to the windows. Traditionally, timber sash windows used putty, leaving distinctive lines visible on the frames. To honour this detail, Ace Windows commissioned a local artist to hand-paint putty lines onto the ECOSlide sashes.  

Kevin Smith, Victorian Sliders’ Regional Manager for Scotland, commented: “This installation demonstrates what we love about working with Ace. Their attention to detail and commitment to authenticity make them a fantastic company to work with. In this case, the results are stunning, and we thank them – and their talented artist – for helping ECOSlide be the best it can possibly be.”  

This project underscores the importance of choosing reliable product suppliers and supportive installers. The homeowners were beyond appreciative of Ace Windows’ dedication, treating the project as if it were their own home.  

Ace Windows’ commitment to combining modern performance with timeless charm has resulted in a flawless and authentic renovation that respects the historical integrity of the property while providing modern benefits.
