Sash Window Repairs
Repair rather than replace
A well-maintained original sash window lasts longer than most people expect, and costs far less than wholesale replacement. The character they bring to a terraced house—and the value they preserve—is something new uPVC never quite captures.
What we repair
- Rotten frames, sills and glazing bars
- Broken sash cords and worn pulleys
- Sashes that stick or won't sit level
- Draught-proofing and weather seals
- Reglazing with period-correct glass
All work matched to the age and style of your windows, using traditional joinery techniques.
How we work with sash windows
The same care we bring to bespoke furniture goes into every window repair. Assessment first, then a proper quote.
You contact us
You contact us with photos and a description of what needs doing—or we'll arrange a visit to look at the windows properly and talk through what's possible.
We assess on site.
We assess on site. That means looking at the frames, testing the sashes, checking what's salvageable and what needs replacing. We ask questions about the age of the house and what you're hoping for.
We quote properly
We quote properly once we've seen the work. No guesswork. The number we give is the number you pay.
Repair work books
Repair work books six to eight weeks ahead, the same as everything else we make. Some jobs come to the workshop; others are done on site depending on what's needed.
Where we carry out this work
Sash window repairs are something we do regularly around the old terraces near the docks and throughout the harbour town itself. We also cover the surrounding villages within about twenty miles—get in touch and we'll let you know if your address is in range.
