Refurbished and Draught Proofed Single Glazed Sash Windows
Our team was commissioned to carry out a comprehensive refurbishment of several single-glazed sash windows at a charming period property in Surrey. The property’s sash windows, while full of historic character, were showing signs of age and required professional attention to restore their original function and visual appeal.
Initial Inspection and Planning
Following an initial inspection, it was clear that the timber frames and sash mechanisms had suffered from general wear and tear over the years. However, the structure was sound enough to allow for a full refurbishment without the need for complete replacement.
Our report outlined a full scope of work, including the repair and refurbishment of the window frames, servicing of the sash mechanisms, and the introduction of a discreet draught-proofing system. Each window was also scheduled for complete redecoration with high-quality paint to ensure durability and aesthetic enhancement.
What Our Customers Say
Refurbishment Process
Once the plan was approved by the client, our skilled team set to work. The windows were carefully dismantled, allowing us to access the box frames and inspect the internal components. Any damaged or worn areas were repaired using high-quality timber and specialist restoration materials.
The sash cords were replaced, pulleys serviced, and the windows were rebalanced to ensure smooth and proper operation. A key part of this project was the installation of our bespoke draught-proofing system, designed to significantly improve thermal efficiency without altering the original appearance of the windows.
Finishing Touches
With all repairs completed, the sash windows and surrounding frames were sanded, primed, and given a full decorative paint finish. The final result not only restored the charm of the original windows but also improved their functionality and energy efficiency—an ideal outcome for the property owner.
Client Satisfaction
The client was extremely pleased with the finished work and noted a noticeable improvement in warmth and usability. This project reflects our ongoing commitment to preserving traditional features while enhancing comfort and performance.
