Restrictors and stops installation
Rotted frames or cracked paint may not affect your immediate comfort as much as stuck sash or sash that does not stay open or closed due to failed mechanisms. That is why it’s important to restore the functionality of your windows while repairing frames and upgrading glass.
Sash windows operate on a weight and pulley system that creates a counterbalance with the window, allowing smooth movement between its open and close position. Consequently, any issue with the weight or pulley can make the sash window tricky or even impossible to open. For tasks such as this or any other restoration work that your windows may need, our team will have them fully functioning once again.
We do not operate as an emergency call-out service, but we can repair cords or pulleys as a part of a timber frame restoration or double-glazing installation project.
