Sash window repair in Ashbourne
Nothing about Rattle and Rot Surveys in Ashbourne is settled until someone has been on site. You will find mostly Peak District gritstone cottages, mill housing and Georgian spa stock in this area, and it moves as it ages. What accelerates it is upland cold with heavy snow loading and hard frost, and frost heave damage and swelling on unbalanced-finish joinery follows sooner than owners expect. In practice that means an honest report, including when replacement is genuinely the better call.
Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. Photographs and approximate sizes are all we need to start.
Something particular to this area: Peak Park properties face some of the tightest external alteration controls in England.

Can you match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
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.
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.
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.
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.
