Sash Windows Restoration

sash window restorationSash Window Draught Seal & Restore is our core repair & recondition service and should be considered an essential upgrade for all sash windows.  Installing effective draught seals into your existing sash windows is the best value for money service we can offer.  For many homeowners draught sealing alone provides a significant home improvement without the expense of replacing glazing.  Our more advanced window renovations all include this service as their foundation.
Draught seals/draught excluder
Primarily they seal the gaps where draughts enter, thereby improving the comfort & energy efficiency of your home & saving you money on energy bills.

Low friction draught seals enable free movement of the sash, yet are tight enough to eliminate intrusive rattles.

Airborne noise, dust and other pollutants that are suspended within draughts are also greatly reduced.
Our Comprehensive Sash Seal & Restore Service Includes:

Restoration of the inner box surface
Renewal of the sash cords with modern ‘everlasting’ cord.
Balance and adjustment of the weighting mechanism, to ensure ease of operation.
Replacement wooden beads fitted with integral draught seals
Machining of the sashes to install integral draught seals
Realignment of the sashes, as necessary
Repair loose sash joints
Servicing or replacement of the ironmongery
