Common Problems With Traditional Sash Windows
Having problems with your sash windows? We can assess and repair a wide range of issues, including:
Sticking Sashes
Over time wood can expand or warp causing your sash windows to stick instead of opening smoothly.
Slipping Sashes
Worn cords or unbalanced weights are usually the cause and may need the tension adjusted.
Rattling Sashes
Loose joints, worn parting beads or poor seals can cause annoying rattles and need a bit of TLC.
Rotten Frames
The British weather gives wooden frames a lot to deal with. We replace damage to match the original style.
Broken Sash Cords
Sash windows work via cords hidden inside the frame, but they can fray with age, requiring replacement.
Draughts
Worn seals can let cold air in, but this can be resolved without changing the look of your windows.

London Sash Window Repair FAQ
How much does sash window restoration cost in London?
The cost depends on the condition of your windows and the work needed. Small repairs might be from a couple hundred pounds, while full restoration on multiple windows will be more. We always give a free, no-pressure quote so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Can you repair rotten wooden sash windows?
Yes. Rotten sections of timber can often be cut out and replaced with new wood that matches your original frame. This saves you money and keeps the charm of your home’s original sash windows.
Do you replace sash cords and weights?

Most repairs can be done in a day or two per window, depending on the work needed. Larger projects or multiple windows will naturally take longer, but we work efficiently to minimise disruption.
