We restore sash function by rebalancing weights, replacing cords, sealing drafts and repairing worn-out sills.

We replace cracked, shattered or misted glass panels single or double-glazed, ensuring safety and energy efficiency.
uPVC & Aluminium Frame Repairs

Sliding Door Mechanism Repairs
We fix sticky runners, misaligned tracks and faulty handles to restore smooth, secure sliding door movement.
Rotten Timber & Sill Restoration
For older properties, we use splicing or resin repairs to restore decayed wood while preserving the original frame’s look.
Emergency Boarding & Securing
After break-ins or vandalism, we offer immediate boarding-up with safety glass options for follow-up replacements.
Recognising when to repair can help you avoid expensive replacements down the line. Look out for these key signs:
Cold Drafts or Rattling Frames
If your windows shake or you feel air leaks, your seals may be worn or sash cords may have snapped.
Visible Rot, Cracks or Soft Timber
hPeeling paint, wood that feels spongy or visible cracks signal internal decay or water damage.
Doors That Stick, Jam or Don’t Lock
If your uPVC or wooden doors are misaligned or difficult to close, hinges or latches may be failing.
Foggy or Misted Double Glazing
Condensation between the panes signals broken seals, which can reduce both thermal efficiency and visibility.
Broken Glass or After a Break-In
Shattered panes or damaged frames need urgent boarding-up and secure glazing to protect your property.
Loose Handles, Fittings or Hinges
Wobbly locks, drooping sashes or loose handles affect safety, energy efficiency and daily usability.
Difficulty Opening or Closing – Indicates frame misalignment or hinge issues.
Cold Draughts Indoors – Suggests gaps needing weatherproofing.
Condensation Between Double Glazing – Requires replacement to restore insulation.
Locks Not Working Properly – A security issue needing urgent attention.
Cracked or Rotted Wooden Frames – Requires repair before further damage occurs.
Noisy or Squeaky Hinges – Could be due to wear & tear or alignment problems.
