Sash Window Restoration
We restore original timber sash windows using traditional carpentry methods. Our process includes dismantling, assessing damage, repairing or replacing timber components, and refinishing to maintain period charm. This service improves operation efficiency while preserving historical authenticity, ensuring windows perform like new without altering their appearance.
Draught Proofing
Our draught-proofing solutions seal gaps in sash windows to reduce heat loss, noise, and dust. We install discreet brush or seal strips that maintain window aesthetics while enhancing thermal efficiency.

We retrofit slimline double glazing units into existing sash windows or craft new hardwood sashes with double glazing. This service retains heritage appearance while improving insulation and noise reduction, offering modern comfort without compromising historical integrity.
