To keep your new sash windows in pristine condition, regular upkeep is essential. Start by cleaning the frames and glass surfaces with a gentle detergent and soft cloth to prevent dirt buildup. Inspect weather seals annually to ensure they remain intact and effective. Every 5-8 years, repaint or treat the timber frames to protect against the elements. Address any issues, such as sticking or drafts, promptly to avoid further damage. By following these steps, your sash windows will continue to enhance your home for many years to come.
