Job Description
Looking for a specialist to restore , repair and record our sash windows. First window is 2.4 Metres tall, 1.7 metres wide.
Requires:
- Fixups to the case - some rot on the exterior needs hardener + wood preservative on the rest, then repainting
- The boxes themselves probably need the paint sanding back to get a good fit (Very tight at present)
- Removal, restoration and repainting of the two sashes
- replacement of the glass in the bottom sash with safety glass
- Rehanging with new cords, make weights, would like to replace the pulleys at the same time
If this goes well we have another 6 or 7 windows that need the same treatment over a period of time.
Always someone here for a quote visit. I know this is a busy time for sash window experts so prepared to wait for the right job. Also this is an important window to me as it is in my office and I stare through it every day!
Can be done on site or removed and returned.
