Chameleon sash windows specialist company provides wooden windows restoration services in East Anglia and South East. We work with private and commercial clients on all period properties, including timber windows repairs in Grade 2 listed buildings and heritage properties in conversation areas.
Our wide range of services focuses on preserving traditional sash windows and making them as energy-efficient as modern “super windows”.Â
Â
Â
Our windows specialists work with all types of timber frame issues. We restored thousands of sash windows over the past ten years. We know how to improve the durability of restored frames to make them as durable as timber windows made with Accoya wood.
Â
To make this possible, we have developed our timber laminating method, which gives this extreme durability to original sash windows which went through our registration process.

Sash window draught-proofing is a great option for Grade 2 listed buildings to remove rattling and draught. It does not require planning permission. We usually do window draught-proofing with timber frame repairs or double glazing retrofit.
Our team instals new staff and parting beads with draught-proofing seals and adds weather seals to the meeting rail. We can also draught-proof casement windows and french doors.Â

Â
If you live in a period home with single glazing and would like to replace your windows to get all the benefits of double glazing, we have a perfect solution for you. We can reglaze your single-glazed windows with slim-profile double-glazing units.Â
Â
New vacuum double glazing is only 7 mm thick, so it fits perfectly narrow stiles and glazing bars of period sash windows. This new generation of glass has better thermal performance and U-value than double Low-E and 34 mm triple glazing. It also improves acoustic properties, and safety glazing is available for additional security.Â
Our team of sash windows specialists can replace inefficient single glazing in the original box sash window with heritage double glazing. This will improve the energy efficiency of your traditional timber sash windows and reduce energy bills.
The thermal photo below shows double-glazed sash windows by our team.
The window on the ground floor of the period property is single glazed, while the window above it has been retrofitted with slim-profile double glazing. As you can see, the thermal difference is huge.
Traditional wooden sash windows can now be double glazed, so you do not need to go for a more expensive window replacement service.
The new vacuum double glazing is 8 times more efficient than single glazing and four times more efficient than secondary glazing. This new glass technology is also more durable than standard double glazing insulated by inert gases such as Krypton and Argon.
The U-value measures heat loss; it tells you how energy-efficient glazing is. The lower the U-value, the better thermal insulation glazing has.
Unlike other sash window companies, we primarily focus on timber frame restoration and double-glazing retrofitting; we do not sell new windows or double-glazed new sash inserts. Our expert team live and breathe the concept of repair rather than replace.
We also do not make a miracle solution out of draught-proofings, which some companies sell as a solution for all energy efficiency problems.
Our approach is direct and honest; we will only offer you a service which will solve your problem. Our staff who comes to the quote meetings are real window experts, not salespeople.
For your peace of mind, our services come with guarantees from our company and manufacturers of products we use, such as vacuum double glazing, timber, and seals.
We offer 8 years guarantee on paintwork and 20 years on repaired timber window parts. The vacuum double glazing we use has 15 years manufacture warranty covering failed double glazed units.
We pride ourselves on delivering a high-quality job that our customers will be delighted with. Don’t just take our word for it, have a look at what our clients and customers have said about our services.
