The main difference is in their maintenance, durability, and appearance. Timber sash windows offer a traditional aesthetic but require regular painting or staining to protect them from rot, warping, and weather damage. Aluminium sash windows, on the other hand, provide the same elegant look with far less maintenance. They are resistant to rust, rot, and corrosion, feature slim, contemporary frames, and offer excellent thermal efficiency when paired with high-performance glazing. Endurance Aluminium sash windows combine classic styling with modern performance, making them a durable, low-maintenance alternative to traditional timber.
