For Over 20 Years We Have Been Reinstating & Reactivating Sash Windows to their original double-hung sliding operation.
Reinstating sash windows to their original double hung operation will restore the original charm of your period home.
Over the years many heritage sash windows have undergone various conversions such as fitting uPVC, aluminium, louver, pivot or casement window sub-frames. Fortunately the original box frame is often left intact and we can undo the conversion and reinstate them into a fully functioning, single or double glazed sliding sash window.
After removing the existing window conversion we fit a replacement balance system including new pulleys, cords & weights.
We undertake frame repairs before installing our authentic replica wooden sashes into your existing timber frames. Sashes are supplied paint finished, either single or double glazed.
We carefully reproduce a copy of the original sashes using any photos you might have or referencing a neighboring property. By increasing the rebate depth we accommodate a sealed double glazed unit.

Often the existing box sash frame will require additional repair work such as replacing a rotten window sill.
All of our draught seals are designed to be as unobtrusive as possible, being machined into the timber components to become an “invisible” part of the window. The original heritage appearance of the property is restored with all the benefits of modern windows.
Original features such as period windows and doors add financial value to homes and help houses sell more quickly.
