We are a small team of craftsmen based in Bristol specialising in Sash Windows, timber windows and doors. We are experts at sash window renovation, repairs, draught-proofing, double glazing and painting. We do most of the work onsite in our client's properties. Utmost care is taken to protect the floor and walls by preparing a room in the house to work in with sheets and floor protection.
We take out the windows to work on and reinstall them at the end of each day so your house is always secure. Our particular expertise is in double glazing. We can remove the glass from your window and replace it with a double glazed unit. We are able to do this to windows with glazing bars, curved glazing and all shapes and sizes.

Replacing your windows is unecological and unnecessary.
Whereas renovating them is not only ecological but will also retain the original appearance and cost less than replacement.
With our renovation method we go back to the bare timber, fill all joints with flexible resin which will stretch and never crack so the water cannot get in.

We have developed our renovation technique to make permanent repairs to woodwork that flex with the natural expansion and contraction of the timber.
Initially, all the paint is removed from the flat surfaces so any rot to the timber is clearly visible.
If there are any rotten areas, the timber is removed back to where it is dry and sound.
We use a combination of spliced in hardwood and resin to replace the damaged section.
No nails or screws are used as these could potentially rust in the future and compromise the repair.

Once a Snug sash renovation and draught-proofing job are done, the windows will slide smoothly and easily using only one hand.
The weights that the sashes were originally paired with are usually only close to the correct weight.
We accurately weigh the windows and the weights and add additional lead weights so they are balanced perfectly.
This results in a perfectly smoothly running window.

Our area of particular expertise is in swapping the glass in your windows for double glazed units.
Often companies claim that windows are too big or too thin to swap the glass and try to convince people to replace the whole window.
We are yet to have found a window we cannot double glaze- We can install into windows with multiple glazing bars(muntins), curved and angles windows.
We also can install a double glazed unit discretely behind a stain glass window.
This doesn't affect the look from the outside at all and is barely detectable from the inside.
