Sash window repair in Yaxley
Most Sash Cord Replacement enquiries we take in Yaxley start with an opening that is not a standard size. The building stock is college-town Georgian stock, fenland brick farmhouses and rapid new-build growth, so we expect variation before we ever pick up a tape. Because of the driest region in the UK with exposed fen wind, we see shrinkage and joint opening rather than rot in most inland stock more often here than in most of the country. What you are paying for is rebalancing weights so the sash holds at any height.
A surveyor visits first and records the real dimensions, at several points on each opening. Get in touch and we will be straight with you about cost and timescale.
One local point to factor in: college and listed stock in Cambridge demands exact historic replication.

Do you work in hardwood or softwood?
Both. Engineered hardwood is the default where movement or exposure is a concern, and slow-grown softwood is often the better value choice for painted work in sheltered positions. We will tell you which we would specify and why.
What guarantee do you provide?
Ten years on workmanship, covering manufacture and the factory-applied finish. Where we install, the installation is covered too. It is issued in writing with the handover paperwork.
Will the finish need maintaining?
A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.
How long does a typical order take?
Most made-to-size orders run six to ten weeks from survey to delivery. Conservation and heavily detailed work can take longer, and we confirm the lead time in writing at quotation rather than leaving it open.
Do you fit, or supply only?
Both. Supply-only is common for trade and contractor clients. For private clients we usually recommend supply and fit, because responsibility for the fit and the finish then sits in one place.
