At Hampstead Sash Window Repairs & Emergency Glazing, our working method is structured, efficient and respectful of heritage detailing. Every step is designed to ensure quality results for homes and buildings across Belsize Park.
Step 1: Consultation and Scheduling
We begin with a quick call or online form submission. Once we identify the problem, such as a cracked pane, condensation or shattered glass, we arrange a convenient time for inspection. Emergency cases are prioritised for same-day response.
Step 2: Site Inspection and Diagnosis
One of our specialists will visit your property to inspect and assess. We check the sash, frame integrity, beading, putty and glazing lines. This ensures that any underlying structural issues are identified early.
Step 3: Quotation and Material Matching
We provide a clear, fixed quote tailored to the glass type required, whether single glazing, laminated or heritage-compatible. Materials are carefully matched to maintain the original aesthetic and meet regulatory standards.
Step 4: Precision Repair or Replacement
We safely remove the damaged glass, prepare the surrounding timber and install new glass using traditional glazing techniques. Every detail is considered, from edge sealing to sash realignment, ensuring longevity and insulation.
Step 5: Final Checks and Client Sign-Off
We finish by testing sash movement, cleaning the work area and ensuring airtight sealing. Our clients are walked through the finished result and we offer guidance on aftercare and future maintenance if needed.
“ We had a shattered lower sash from a burglary. Called them late evening—they arrived within the hour! The glazier was polite, cleaned the mess and secured the room. Two days later, the sash was restored to its original condition with matching timber and glass. Truly professional and reassuring in a moment of panic”
"I feared I’d have to replace all our front sash windows. Instead, this team repaired the damaged timber, added draught-proofing and replaced just two panes. They saved us thousands and the original windows look stunning. The craftsmen were meticulous and knew period detailing inside out."
“As an architect working with listed properties, I was nervous about using a new contractor. They went above and beyond. They sourced restoration glass that matched the original 1890s glazing. Worked neatly and carefully in a fully furnished flat. Kept me updated with photos at every stage of the process. The finish was flawless”
