Traditional sash windows can suffer from common problems: broken cords, painted shut, draughty and not working properly to name a few.

As part of our overhaul and draught proofing process service the working parts of a sash window are overhauled.

Overhaul

• All sash cords renewed
• Sashes aligned correctly
• Rebalancing of the counter weight system
• Pulley wheels serviced
• Glass cleaned inside and out
• Putty repaired where perished
• New window furniture and security locks

Whilst these services are carried we can also carry out any other remedial works such as re-glazing and make repairs to any rotten wood.

The way in which sash windows are fitted allows for air to circulate and leak around the frame. Our draught proofing procedure eliminates these draughts and will gives a number of key improvements but does not change the appearance.

Draught Proofing

• Remove draughts
• Stop rattling
• Better thermal insulation
• Improved sound insulation
• Minimise dust levels
