Bay window quotes for Birmingham’s 1930s semis and Edwardian villas
Two housing types drive Birmingham’s bay market: the Edwardian bay-fronted terraces of Moseley, Kings Heath and Selly Oak, and the vast belt of 1930s semis across Hall Green, Yardley and Sutton Coldfield where a canted bay front is almost a universal detail. Legacy Windows is a quote comparison service that puts you in front of installers who understand tiled bay roofs, spandrel panels and structural cill support on softened 90-year-old brickwork.
Why locals in Birmingham choose Legacy Windows
- West Midlands bay pricing: budget £1,470 to £3,500 fitted for the typical three-facet 1930s semi bay
- Installers in our network survey the tiled bay roof and the cill separately, so lead, felt and tile detail is not tacked on later
- Spandrel panel refurbishment (the sloped roof section between bay top and eaves) is quoted where original panels are failing
- Slim double glazing is available for bay-fronted streets in Edgbaston, Bournville and other Birmingham conservation areas
- Coloured foils (Chartwell Green, Anthracite, Rosewood) are offered at the same lead time as white

Frequently asked questions
Do I need planning permission to replace a Bournville bay window? Bournville sits inside a conservation area with additional Village Trust design covenants. Like-for-like replacement in matching materials is usually acceptable, but a change in frame material or bar pattern normally requires consent.
Why is bay roof condition so important on a 1930s Birmingham semi? Original bay roofs are typically small pitched tile or lead-flat structures that have received almost no maintenance for 90 years. A window swap that ignores a failing bay roof will leak within a couple of winters, so a proper installer will price roof works alongside.
Can a 1930s semi bay take slim double glazing at Part L rating? Yes: 14mm slim units on a warm-edge spacer typically deliver Uw around 1.4 W/m²K, meeting Building Regs Part L targets while keeping the original narrow sightlines that suit the Edwardian and 1930s bay profile.
