Home / Sash and Casement Wooden Windows Restoration in Cambridge

Specialist in Sash Windows restoration in Cambridge.

To provide an enviable quality of work at an affordable price level, we constantly improve three compounds of our success – people, techniques and materials. The team of decorators is lead by a former engineer who combines his passion for working with wood and mechanics to create solutions to even the most challenging tasks.

As a part of windows restoration project we can also paint and refurbish any exterior woodwork and masonry.

Here are the top 9 issues we deal with every day

Decayed window sills

Rotten beading

Partially decayed frame

Loose putty

Rain water penetrates unprotected wood through cracks in putty

Cracked glass pane

We replace all cracked glass before commencing the wood repairs

Recently painted windows

Often rotten wood is left untreated under a fresh coat of paint. It leads to even more expensive repairs being needed in the future.

Holes in sash window frames

Despite the scary appearance, we repair these on a daily basis

Missing putty and rotten bottom rail

Where necessary we will replace badly rotten window parts

Wet, partially rotten sills

Stripped back to solid wood, the sills will be treated and repaired with Accoya/ Tricoya wood

Before and After Casement and Sash Windows Restoration

We only use Accoya/Tricoya wood for windows restoration

Accoya® is wood, but not as you know it. It is modified timber in which a process called acetylation, a cutting-edge patented technology, enables it to resist rot, defy the elements and stay strong for decades. Guaranteed for 50 years above ground and 25 years in ground or freshwater, its performance and properties are remarkable.

Dimensionally stable

– Swelling and shrinkage reduced by 75% or more – Doors and windows open effortlessly year round – Reduced maintenance costs

Outstanding durability

– Lasting 50 years above ground, 25 years in ground/freshwater Class 1 durability, surpassing even teak – Virtually rot proof – 70 year minimum service life stated by TRADA

Perfect for coating

– Improved stability means coatings last up to two times longer – Easier to coat, less preparation and sanding required

Sash and Casement Windows on-site Paint Spraying

Paint sprayers allow us to apply an equivalent of 2-3 perfectly even coats of paint in just one day. This gives woodwork much better protection, perfect adhesion and superior finish. With such application windows and doors can be shut overnight without sticking.

Having used Alex to paint the inside of our house, we have invited him back to paint the exterior. The team are total work horses. Punctual, efficient and their work is excellent. Can’t recommend highly enough

We have used Matt and his team on a number of occasions. The standard of work is excellent and offers value for money. He has a superb eye for detail and does not settle for second best. I would have no hesitation in recommending him. Don't use gloss use Matt!

Excellent communication, service and professionalism. We spoke with Chameleon to restore some rotting wood french doors and wooden windows, as well as redecorate. Email discussions with Victoria to arrange the initial quote were answered quickly and in a friendly way. Alex and his team of decorators were excellent - they took 2 and a half days instead of 5, and worked extremely hard, leaving the windows and doors looking great. We'd use them again without hesitation and would thoroughly recommend them.

Alex and his team are superb. We have used them before, and always been impressed - as we were this time - by their work ethic, their expertise and knowledge, the quality of their work, and their efficiency. I recommend them very highly indeed.
