Sash Window Restoration
We restore sash windows to their original condition using traditional techniques and premium materials. Our process includes repairing rotten sections with epoxy resins and grade 1 timber, ensuring structural integrity and longevity. Clients benefit from enhanced property value and energy efficiency while preserving historical authenticity.
Draught Proofing
Our draught proofing service seals gaps in sash windows to reduce heat loss and energy bills. By fitting brush strips and adjusting seals, we improve thermal efficiency and noise reduction. This service complies with conservation regulations and offers a 5% VAT rate for listed buildings.
Slim Double Glazing
We install slim double glazing units that mimic single glazing aesthetics while improving insulation. These units reduce energy bills by up to 20% and noise pollution, ideal for listed buildings requiring modern efficiency without compromising heritage.
Window Repair
Our repairs address rot, paint degradation, and mechanical issues in sash windows. Using two-pack epoxy resins and durable timber, we ensure long-lasting fixes that maintain functionality and appearance. All repairs come with a five-year warranty.
Consultation
We provide expert guidance on sash window maintenance, conservation approvals, and energy-saving options. Our team assists with planning consent and tailored solutions for historic properties, ensuring compliance with local authority requirements.
