We offer a range of specialist repair and upgrade solutions designed to improve the performance of your existing timber sash windows, preserving their original character while enhancing comfort, efficiency and ease of operation.
Our comprehensive overhaul service includes replacing sash cords, rebalancing and easing the sashes, adjusting the weights, fitting new parting and staff beads, and installing new window furniture in your choice of finish.
Designed to reduce draughts, eliminate rattles and restore smooth operation, this cost-effective solution can significantly improve the performance of your existing windows without the need for complete replacement.
Where the existing box frames remain in good condition, we can retain the original frames and manufacture bespoke Accoya timber sliding sashes, carefully crafted to replicate the style and proportions of your original windows.
Combined with draught-proofing, new beads, replacement sash cords and weights, and a professional paint finish, this option offers an excellent balance between preserving traditional character and introducing the benefits of modern glazing.
For homeowners wishing to retain as much of their original windows as possible, we offer a specialist reglazing service using slimline double-glazed units or advanced vacuum glazing, such as Fineo.
The process typically involves removing the existing glass and machining the original sashes at our Chessington workshop to accommodate the new glazing.
This is a popular option for period properties and listed buildings, where retaining original windows is a priority, subject to any applicable planning and conservation requirements.
