Sash Windows
Draught proofing sash windows & repair, London, Surrey, Sussex & Brighton.
Traditional timber sash windows are draughty, although they are designed to keep out the elements sash windows were built for a different era, when fire places were the source of warmth. To enable the fire places to keep going sash windows had to let in some air to let the fire draw and burn. Shutters and heavy curtains were used by the Victorian to try and help insulate. With modern central heating installed in homes, sash window draughts are not necessary and it makes controlling the heat in a room near on impossible. We can renovate the sash window and install draught proofing in to the window at the same time. The draught proofing will virtually eliminate all draughts and in turn this will reduce the dust and noise penetration which travels in the air through the gaps in the window. If your sash windows are not draught proofed then we strongly recommend that you have this done. A full specification of this service can be sent to you, it will detail ironmongery and a full breakdown of works.

Draught proofing Sash windows
A traditional sash window has gaps which add up to an area roughly the same size as a six inch square. So if you have three sash windows in a room you can see why it is so important to get the gaps and draughts reduced. Ultimately the best service for a sash window is to upgrade to double glazed as well as draught proofing if your budget allows.

When looking at renovating windows it is important to know when the window was constructed, to what period of design and what materials were used such as Oak or European redwood. Once these points have been established then the condition can be assessed and a quotation can then be given.

Basic service.
We will release both sashes and replace the ropes to enable the movement to be as designed. We won?t replace any of the beads or locks. Sash windows were designed to ventilate as well as keep out the elements. If you open the lower sash and the top sash just a few inches then the cold air is sucked in through the bottom and the hot air flows out the top. Very effective in the summer.
Windowcare epoxy resin system is a now favoured in smaller sash window repairs scenarios. On larger repairs replacement sections of timber in hardwood or treated Redwood is preferable. Accoya is now sometimes specified. See examples below.
