Replace or Refurbish
your Box Sash Sliding Windows
Using traditional methods in conjunction with modern technology you can greatly
improve the efficiency and lifespan of your windows. You can eliminate draughts
and rattling. You can also double glaze. This makes your existing weights
redundant because of the additional amount of glass. So you replace the weights
with spiral spring tensioners. These tensioners are located on the sides of
the sashes where your existing sash cords are. They are simple to detach from
the sash, which allows you to take them out for access or painting etc.
Sometimes, depending on the thickness of your existing sashes, you can install
a double glazed unit. Sometimes you can also make new sashes to take double
glazing, provided the box they slide in is sufficiently wide enough to allow
it. If you have any questions about your particular window I will be happy
to advise you, just call or e-mail tom.carter@ic24.net.
I can, of course, replace exactly what you already have.
There are a number of options regarding timbers, glass and ornamentation,
existing mouldings can be reproduced plus paint, security and preservatives
etc. In the event that you would like me to look at your windows (I am not
a salesman!)
I could give you a clear indication of what can be done or not. If we proceed
I will give you an estimate, which will be the total cost of the job. No further
contact will be made unless, of course, you wish me to proceed.
