Sixteen Lite Sash Installation in Ashfield

Sixteen Lite Sash Installation in Ashfield

Heritage Window Specialists recently completed a Sixteen Lite Sash Installation in Ashfield, restoring the appearance, structural integrity, and long-term performance of a traditional timber window system. The project involved the supply and installation of sixteen new lite sashes, along with extensive timber repairs to address deterioration that had developed over time. By combining traditional joinery techniques with premium-quality materials, our team was able to preserve the character of the property while delivering a durable and weather-resistant result.

Replacing Deteriorated Timber Components

As part of this Sixteen Lite Sash Installation in Ashfield, the existing timber sill had reached the end of its serviceable life and showed signs of decay. To ensure a lasting repair, Heritage Window Specialists removed the entire sill and carefully inspected the surrounding timber for hidden damage. Any rot present within the window styles was identified and removed, preventing further deterioration and ensuring the structural stability of the window assembly.

Where timber decay had affected the vertical styles, our craftsmen carried out precise splice repairs using premium vertical grain Western Red Cedar. This approach allowed the original window framework to be retained wherever possible while replacing only the damaged sections. The use of Western Red Cedar provides excellent durability, dimensional stability, and resistance to moisture, making it an ideal choice for heritage and traditional timber window restoration projects.

New Hardwood Timber Sill Installation

A key component of this Sixteen Lite Sash Installation in Ashfield was the supply and installation of a new hardwood timber sill. Manufactured to suit the existing window profile, the new sill was carefully fitted to provide both structural support and enhanced weather protection. To further improve long-term performance, waterproof flashing was incorporated into the installation, helping to prevent water ingress and protect the surrounding timber from future moisture-related damage.

The combination of quality hardwood timber and professional waterproofing measures ensures the restored window system will continue to perform effectively while maintaining the property’s traditional architectural appearance.

The completed Sixteen Lite Sash Installation in Ashfield demonstrates Heritage Window Specialists’ commitment to preserving timber windows through skilled craftsmanship and high-quality materials.
