Sash Window Repair
Our sash window repair service addresses common issues like draughts, rattles, and broken cords. Using traditional joinery techniques, we restore functionality while preserving historical details. Each repair includes wood restoration, glazing, and draught-proofing to enhance energy efficiency and longevity.
Double Glazing
We install double glazing within traditional sash frames to reduce noise and heat loss. This service improves insulation without compromising period aesthetics. Double-glazed units are tailored to fit existing windows, offering modern comfort while maintaining architectural integrity.
Draught Proofing
Using the Reddiseals system, our draught proofing eliminates gaps in sash windows. This reduces cold air infiltration, lowers energy bills, and minimises dust. The solution preserves window operation while enhancing thermal and acoustic performance for a more comfortable home environment.
Timber Replacements
For irreparable windows, we craft bespoke timber sash replacements. Each unit is handmade to match original designs, with options for double glazing and draught proofing. Our replacements ensure durability and period accuracy, blending traditional methods with modern materials.
