Sash window repair in Desborough
The Sash Window Repair we make for Desborough is set out from a survey, not a size chart. Given the ironstone cottages, boot-and-shoe terraces and new town expansion housing that dominates locally, standard sizes are the exception not the rule. The weather does the rest: dry inland conditions with limited coastal influence here, and seasonal shrinkage and glazing bead loosening on older painted units as the predictable result. Our focus on this is saving the original timber wherever it is still sound.
The measuring is done by the people responsible for the fit, which concentrates the mind. Tell us what you are working with and we will put a fixed figure in writing.
Something particular to this area: ironstone reveals absorb water and hold it against frames in wet spells.

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.
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.
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 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.
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.
