Common questions

My sash window is stuck. Can you free it?

Usually yes. Freeing and re-balancing a window is a common job and is often done in one visit.

Can you replace a broken sash cord?

Yes. New cords are one of the most common repairs and make the window run smoothly again.

Do you repair rotten timber?

Small areas of rot can often be cut out and repaired. Larger repairs include full sill replacements, new bottom rails and, where a sash is beyond saving, a replacement sash made to match.

Do you paint the windows after repair?

Painting isn't part of the service, but repaired timber is primed and sealed, so it's protected and ready for your decorator.
