I was was in the construction industry for over 45 years and find it hard to find any
fault with these men. They were polite, reliable and very neat and tidy and nothing was too much trouble.
They have done an excellent job
I would highly recommend Jack and Nick and of course Sash Window Preservation.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had our old sash windows restored and partially replaced, and the result is excellent. The craftsmanship is outstanding — the new windows are beautifully made and blend seamlessly with the originals, preserving the character of the property while significantly improving performance.

Installation was carried out to a very high standard. The team — Adam, Ricky, George, and Gary — were professional, efficient, and clearly took pride in their work. Attention to detail was evident throughout, and everything was left clean and tidy at the end of each day.

Overall, a very high-quality job from start to finish. Highly recommended.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gary and his wonderful team (George, Nick and Jack if I remember correctly) replaced our 120 year old Edwardian sash windows for exact modern double glazed replicas and we could not be more pleased. Beautiful windows, there is much less noise and the rooms are no longer cold. They draught proofed an older window too which now is like new. Fast and efficient service, and certainly fairly priced. Thank you! 10/10.

Timber Sash Window Repair Hertfordshire

Trusted Timber Sash Window Repair Hertfordshire

Hertfordshire has more original sash windows than you might expect from its commuter reputation. At Sash Window Preservation, we provide sash window repair in Hertfordshire to Georgian high streets, Victorian and Edwardian railway villas and listed village cottages, restoring existing sash windows rather than replacing them.

Hertfordshire Sash window rot repair and rebuilds

The sash windows we are called in to quote for generally have no problems that cannot be resolved; they have simply been neglected. Cords have snapped, and poor seals around the beads allow draughts to enter. Paint applied over long periods hardens to a shell which prevents sashes from opening and closing. Water getting into the sills and lower rails of sashes has caused rot to the timbers.

The rotten wood is removed back to sound timber and treated, and then the sashes are rebuilt using the two-part epoxy resin system Repair Care. Where the decay is deeper than this we are able to cut and fit in new timber, using traditional joints.

The benefits of repairing sash windows in Hertfordshire

Old market towns have retained their Georgian high streets, and many of the villages in between have listed cottages and old farmhouses. Many older houses in Hertfordshire are located within conservation areas or are listed buildings, particularly in the historic centres of St Albans, Hertford and Hitchin. For these houses, the rule of thumb is to repair like for like and keep as much of the original timber and glass as possible. Where a sash is past repair we can make a copy of the original sash profile in our own Norwich workshop.

Our Norwich-based team travel across the county to complete window work. We have been undertaking work on listed buildings and period properties, our core specialism, since 2010. We are CERTASS qualified and a CHAS accredited contractor.

Sash Window Repair FAQs

Do you provide sash window services in Hertfordshire?

Yes, we do. We cover St Albans, Hertford, Ware, Hitchin, Royston, Bishop’s Stortford, Welwyn, Berkhamsted, Tring and Harpenden. The larger towns of Watford, Stevenage and Hemel Hempstead have their own pages on this site. Whatever part of the county you are in, our approach to repair is the same.

Do you work on Victorian and Georgian properties in Hertfordshire?

Yes. St Albans has Georgian properties on Fishpool Street, St Peter’s Street and Holywell Hill and Victorian terraces around the station. The county town of Hertford has long Georgian frontages. In Bishop’s Stortford older streets lead off from Windhill, and Harpenden developed into a town of Victorian and Edwardian properties once the railway had reached the area.

Can sash window efficiency be improved in older Hertfordshire homes?

Yes. We deal with draughts, rattling and cold spots first with draught proofing, which does not change the appearance of the window. We can then look at secondary glazing, double glazing fitted into restored sashes, or vacuum glazing, depending on the property.

Can sash windows be upgraded while keeping their original appearance?

Yes. We are familiar with the requirements of listed buildings and would be happy to work with a home owner and their conservation officer to detail the repair to individual windows prior to commencing work. Consent decisions rest with the local authority.

Why should I choose Sash Window Preservation for my Hertfordshire property?

Period properties are our core specialism, and one team completes the job in full, including security upgrades and painting and finishing. Book a free onsite quotation or a video quotation and we will send you a written quote, window by window. Call 01603 908 252.
