Restore your period sash windows with our professional sash window restoration services in Guildford. We specialize in repairing and restoring traditional sash windows to preserve their aesthetic and functionality.
Restore and Double Glaze Original Sash Windows
We don’t just repair rotten frames and draught-proof them, but we can also reglaze your wooden windows with vacuum double glazing.
With decades of experience refurbishing sash windows in Guildford as well as casement and sliding windows, we are the first choice for long-lasting timber window restoration with guarantees. We can renovate rotten timber frames and add double glazing to your originally single-glazed sash windows.
We can also make your sliding sash windows function better than ever before by preparing and replacing cords, pulley and weight mechanisms.
Our team of craftsmen only use the materials that will last. For example, Accoya wood is used for any job that requires a new solid piece of timber. When we work on sash window double glazing projects, we only work with Fineo glass and the best draught-proofing seals and weather strips.
Please note:our minimum order quantity is 15 windows for restoration and 10 windows for reglazing with vacuum double glazing.
Sash windows double glazing Guildford
Rather than replacing your existing single-glazed sash windows, consider reglazing them with vacuum-insulated glazing units. This allows you to retain the original aesthetics while gaining numerous benefits of insulated glazing:
Enhanced safety – Toughened Vacuum glazing is harder to break than standard glass.
Lower energy bills – Better insulation saves on heating and cooling costs. It can also improve your property’s EPC rating.
Eliminated drafts – The improved airtight draught-proofing seal removes cold air infiltration.
Reglazing with vacuum-insulated units allows you to upgrade your windows’ performance while retaining their original character and style. It’s an effective alternative to full window replacement.
In many historic buildings, bay, sash and casement wooden windows were custom made for the property. This means that they are very expensive to replace as standard size wooden windows would not fit. Additionally, as the owner of the listed building, you might already know that any alteration or big jobs to the listed building requires permission and window replacement is among them.
With our sash window refurbishment services, though, we can renovate existing window frames with no need for replacement. It’s much less expensive than replacing the windows and even longer-lasting than new softwood windows.
Bay windows restoration Guildford
Bay windows in listed properties were often custom made for each property. This means that replacing a wooden bay window can be very costly because they all need to be made to very precise dimensions. Restoring a bay window, though, is much less expensive. We can replace any rotten timber in your bay window, solve any draught issues, double glaze them and prime and paint them with quality paint to ensure they stand the test of time. After our expert team of window restorers have finished, your windows will look new again. They will function perfectly, and the charm of your home won’t be affected.
Original timber windows double glazing
One of the largest concerns for people with original timber-framed windows is that they are not energy efficient. Many people are told that installing modern double glazed windows is the only way to achieve good energy efficiency in an older property. However, we disagree. We use the latest in vacuum-sealed double glazing technology in all of our double glazing projects. This ultra-thin glazing technology gives you the benefits of triple glazing, and we very rarely even need to replace the timber in your windows. Your windows will still operate and function as they always have (even better if you use our restoration services as well). However, they will be extremely energy efficient, and the appearance of your windows won’t change at all.
