Sash window repair in Durham
Ask three firms about Sash Window Repair in Durham and you will get three different answers. The housing here is largely colliery terraces, Georgian Durham city stock and Pennine stone housing, and that shapes what will actually fit. The weather does the rest: cold upland winters with heavy rainfall here, and frost and saturation damage on unmaintained painted softwood as the predictable result. Everything we do here comes back to saving the original timber wherever it is still sound.
We survey before anything is cut, so the schedule reflects the opening as built rather than as drawn. Give us the basics and you will have a written figure, not a range that moves later.
Something particular to this area: Durham's cathedral setting carries World Heritage-level design scrutiny.

Can you price from drawings?
Yes. Send a drawing set or a schedule and we will price against it. If anything is ambiguous we will query it before quoting rather than assume and reprice later.
Is the timber certified?
All our stock is FSC certified and chain-of-custody documentation is supplied with the order, which most main contractors and specifiers now require for their records.
How do you handle glazing?
Standard double glazed units for most work, and slim-cavity units where a conservation officer has restricted sightlines. Single glazing with putty lines is available where the consent requires it.
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.
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.
