Do any of the following apply to your windows?
  • Are your sash windows in need of repair
  • Are your windows draughty?
  • Do they rattle?
  • Are they seemingly dust magnets?
  • Would you like less noise coming through them?
  • Are your windows difficult to open and close?
  • Do you have security concerns?
By  removing the old parting and staff beads form your windows and  replacing them with wooden draught proofing beads many of these problems can be resolved.

In some cases slimlite double glaze units can also be inserted in the original rebates bringng the old window closer to the industry standard

BESPOKE WINDOWS

In some cases windows are unfortunately simply beyond repair and need replacing. We can make bespoke timber windows to mimic the original and, depending on listed building restrictions,  also design them to the property owners preference.

We aim to source our timbers locally, if this is not possible we make sure it comes from sustainable and ethical sources and are fully aware of the advantages of doing so.

A design service is available and we aim to work closely with the client ensure you get exactly what you want.
