Replacement Sash Windows
Our replacement sash windows combine traditional craftsmanship with modern performance. Manufactured in Berkshire using Accoya timber, they offer enhanced energy efficiency while preserving period character. Each window includes a 50-year anti-rot guarantee and is tailored to match original architectural details. Installation services cover London and Southern England with nationwide supply options available.
Draught Proofing
Professional draught-proofing extends the life of existing timber windows while improving thermal efficiency. Our solutions maintain heritage compliance for listed buildings and conservation areas. Techniques include precision sealing and hardware upgrades, reducing energy bills without compromising aesthetic integrity. Suitable for sash and casement windows across London and Southern England.
Timber Front Doors
Bespoke timber front doors enhance security and kerb appeal while maintaining architectural authenticity. Crafted from Accoya wood with a 50-year guarantee, they feature custom ironmongery and optional double glazing. Installation available in London and Southern England, with nationwide supply for self-installation projects.
Secondary Glazing
Discreet secondary glazing improves thermal and noise insulation for listed buildings where double glazing isn't permitted. Custom-made to match existing windows, our solutions preserve historical accuracy while enhancing comfort. Ideal for conservation areas across London and Southern England.
New Sashes Supply
Supply-only new sashes for existing window frames reduce costs while maintaining original architecture. Double-glazed units improve energy efficiency with minimal disruption. Available nationwide, these components suit period properties requiring partial window restoration rather than full replacement.
