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.
