Sash window repair in Christchurch
Half the Sash Window Restoration problems we fix in Christchurch started as a sizing assumption. The housing here is largely Purbeck stone cottages, Victorian resort villas and thatched inland villages, and that shapes what will actually fit. The other factor is exposed Channel coast with intense salt and UV load, which is why rapid finish failure and fixings corrosion within a few seasons on seafront stock is the most common reason people call us. What we concentrate on is taking the window back to sound timber before anything is recoated.
We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. Send us sizes and a photograph and we will come back with a fixed written price.
Bear in mind for this area: Jurassic Coast properties need stainless fixings as standard, not an upgrade.

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.
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.
Do you take a deposit?
Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.
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.
What if the opening is out of square?
Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.
