Are Bay Windows Load Bearing?

It’s always a good idea to assume that a bay window is load bearing unless it can be proved otherwise. Bay windows are supported by structural mullions, ordinarily stone or brick and therefore it’s crucial that the support is sufficient to bare the imposed weight of both the frame, bay poles and glazing. House of Windows offer optional bay jacks if required.

That said, bay windows that have a small felt roof (usually felted), are ordinarily considered non-load bearing.

Bow or Bay – Which is Right For Your Home?

Choices… Choices… If you’re wondering which style to choose, ultimately, it comes down to personal taste, the style of your home and the aesthetic you’re hoping to achieve.

Bow windows have a softer appeal due to their curvature and suit both traditional and modern homes. They can let in a great deal more light due to the increased number of glazed panes - if you’re looking for a room with a view, they’re an ideal window solution.

On the other hand, bay windows have a more traditional, angular feel that suits period style properties or a more classic style of home.
