Sash Window Restoration Experts in Bristol
Restore Original Sash Windows with Care
Restoration can help bring original sash windows back into good working order while retaining the details that suit a period property. Bristol Sash Window Services assesses the condition of the windows and discusses suitable work for the existing joinery.
A restoration may involve several parts of the window, from timber repairs and glazing to cords, pulleys and finishing. The work depends on what the assessment finds. We work in Bristol, Clevedon and North Somerset.
A Considered Approach to Original Sash Windows
Original sash windows can show wear in different ways. Timber may be damaged, glazing may be loose, cords may have worn, or the sashes may no longer move smoothly. Restoration looks at the window as a whole so that related issues can be identified and discussed together.
Where suitable, the aim is to retain and repair original material rather than replace sound parts unnecessarily. The work recommended will depend on the condition of each window.
What Sash Window Restoration May Involve
Following an assessment, restoration work may include local timber repairs, attention to glazing, servicing or replacing cords and pulleys, fitting suitable draught seals, and preparing and finishing the windows.
For a specific fault or damaged section, see our sash window repair service. If the work needed is more focused, our sash window refurbishment page explains that service.
Keeping the Period Character
Window profiles, glazing bars and other details contribute to the appearance of a period property. Restoration takes these existing features into account when considering repair and finishing options.
For listed buildings, changes to windows may require consent. Check with the local planning authority before work starts. Our listed building sash window page has further information.
