Our Sash Window Repairing and Restoring Services in Melbourne
A full range of sash window services to suit your needs
We offer a wide variety of services. With a wealth of experience and expertise when it comes to Sliding Window Repairs and Timber Window Repairs, Sash Window Restorations can deliver premium service tailored to suit your needs.
Sash Window Restorations offers the following services and solutions;
Restore Window Function
We can replace broken cords, seized pulleys, damaged parting beads, broken sash frames or simply free up jammed or painted shut windows.
When windows have been inoperable for a long time, simply re-roping and removing excess paint usually restores function.
Timber Rot
We replace or repair rotted sills, sash frames, window box timbers and offer a rot prevention treatment for all surfaces.
In windows where timber rot is minor, the frames and sills can be repaired without removing them.
If the rot is more substantial we remove the damaged timbers and replace them with new hardwood timbers.
Glass
We can replace any broken glass or upgrade the original glass with thicker industry standard glass, safety glass, noise reduction glass or energy efficient 'e-coated' glass.
The original glass in sash windows is generally thinner and weaker. We can replace it with thicker glass, toughened glass for safety and durability or 'e-coated' glass that has a clear metallic film to minimise heat transference, keeping rooms cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
Security
We stock a wide range of locks and hardware.
We can supply and install new lifters and locks, if required, in a range of colours and styles.
Sash bolts or keyed deadlocks can also be fitted for additional security and insurance benefits.
Fly Screens
We supply and fit timber and aluminium fly screens.
We make aluminium fly screens off site in a variety of colours to suit your building.
Timber fly screens can be pre-fabricated at the joinery shop and can be fitted with clips or hinged for ease of cleaning.
They can be painted to compliment your colour scheme, retaining the original heritage charm.
Draft/Rattle Proofing
We can install weather seals to fix drafty windows and stop the rattling.
Weather seals also aid significantly in noise reduction and thermal efficiency.
Installing durable synthetic seals inside the timber cavity eliminates rattling whilst allowing the window to glide smoothly and seal snugly when closed.
Painting
To complete the job we colour match and re-paint the windows inside and out if you require.
We use quality enamel or acrylic paints for a perfect finish and to protect the timber from deterioration caused by harsh weather conditions.
Our expert tradesmen take care to do a neat and tidy job and always clean up afterwards.
Complete Replacement
Where a window is in a state of extreme disrepair we can replace the complete window and window box with a quality replication.
We will remove the damaged woodwork and replace it with made to measure frames and sills, constructed from new, high quality hardwood.
Removal and installation usually takes a single day.
