Frequently Asked Questions

Why retain sash windows?

Replacing sash windows is incredibly expensive, and original windows contribute significantly to the historic character of a building. Original timber windows were made of very high-quality wood seldom found nowadays and it would therefore be a waste to replace them unnecessarily.

Can I just have one window refurbished or repaired?

Yes of course. Some customers have one window done at a time to coincide with their decorating schedule.

Do I need to be home while you work?

No. We often work in properties while the customer is on holiday or at work.

Is it messy?

Whilst the work creates some dust, we use professional filtered extraction equipment and cover furnishings. We are often complimented on how clean and tidy we are.

Can you just replace the cords?

Yes, we offer a dedicated re-cord service.

Do you paint as well?

No. Putty generally needs time to harden before paint, but we are happy to pass on details of painters we work closely with.
