Sash window repair in Burford
Most Sash Window Painting enquiries we take in Burford start with an opening that is not a standard size. Local property is overwhelmingly Cotswold stone cottages, Georgian college-town terraces and new-build fringe estates, which is why we never quote from a catalogue. Because of river-valley mist and prolonged autumn damp, we see rot behind stone reveals where water tracks in at the joint more often here than in most of the country. In practice that means preparation done properly so the coating actually lasts its interval.
Each opening is recorded individually, since a terrace of identical houses rarely is. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.
One thing that catches people out here: listed and curtilage-listed properties are unusually common in the historic centres.

Can you work on a listed building?
Yes, and a significant share of our work is listed or conservation area. We can supply drawings and section details to support a listed building consent or planning application, though the consent itself remains the owner's responsibility.
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.
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 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 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.
