UPVC windows for Brighton away from the Regency streets
Brighton is best known for Regency squares, but most of the housing stock outside Kemptown, Brunswick and Montpelier is Victorian terrace and later interwar semi where UPVC is entirely appropriate. Legacy Windows matches homeowners in Hanover, Preston Park, Patcham and Portslade with FENSA or CERTASS registered fitters who quote a fixed supply-and-fit price on the same brief.
Why locals in Brighton choose Legacy Windows
- Typical 2026 pricing sits between £495 and £990 per casement supplied and fitted, adjusted for Brighton’s higher-than-average trade rates.
- Marine-grade stainless steel hinges and locking cylinders are specified as standard, since salt spray from the seafront reaches deep into BN1.
- All matched installers are FENSA or CERTASS registered, so the Building Regulations notice and certificate arrive without a separate application.
- Every unit hits Part L 2022 at a whole-window Uw of 1.4 W/m2K or better, and Part F trickle vents are added where required.
- Three like-for-like written quotes inside a working week, no cold calls, no showroom sit-downs.
Areas we cover around Brighton
The comparison service reaches across BN1, BN2 and BN3, covering Preston Park, Hanover, Kemptown, Hove, Patcham and Portslade. Rottingdean and Ovingdean sit on the same panel. Requests from Worthing, Shoreham, Lewes and Eastbourne are routed to Sussex installers rather than a national call centre. Any address inside one of the thirty-four conservation areas is flagged so we can steer you towards timber or slim aluminium where UPVC is not permitted.
Frequently asked questions
Is UPVC allowed on Brighton’s Regency streets? Not on the front elevations. Kemptown, Brunswick, Montpelier and much of Hove sit in strict conservation areas covering thirty-four zones across the city, and Regency frontages usually require timber sash or a slim aluminium equivalent. Rear elevations and side returns are often more relaxed.
How does salt air affect UPVC in Brighton? The frame itself is untouched, but the hardware corrodes if it is not marine grade. Every quote on our Brighton panel specifies stainless steel A4 hinges and cylinders because chromed hardware pits within a couple of winters.
Do I need permission on an Article 4 street? Yes. Article 4 directions in parts of Hanover and Preston Park remove permitted development rights for window changes, so a planning application is required even for a like-for-like replacement. Brighton and Hove City Council responds to most applications inside eight weeks.
