Restore Instead of Replace
Many timber sash windows that appear beyond repair can actually be fully restored at a fraction of the cost of replacement.
Original timber was often made from high-quality hardwood or slow-grown softwood that can last well over a century when properly maintained. Our restoration process preserves as much of the original material as possible, helping retain the architectural character and value of your property.
Restoration can also help avoid planning issues that may arise when replacing windows in conservation areas or listed buildings throughout Richmond-upon-Thames.
Improve Energy Efficiency
Older sash windows are often blamed for cold draughts and high heating bills. However, complete replacement is rarely necessary.
Our draught proofing systems significantly reduce air leakage without altering the appearance of your windows. Combined with careful repairs and smooth operation, your restored windows become warmer, quieter and more energy efficient while maintaining their traditional design.
Experienced Restoration for Period Homes
Richmond-upon-Thames is renowned for its beautiful Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian homes, many of which still retain their original timber sash windows.
Our craftsmen understand the construction methods used throughout different historical periods and restore each window sympathetically using traditional joinery techniques.
Whether your property is listed, situated within a conservation area or simply requires careful restoration, we deliver work that respects the character of your home.
