01

How we manage same-day sash window security

When a sash window is damaged, the immediate priority is to ensure your home is weather-tight and secure. Our emergency service operates Monday to Saturday, between 08:00 and 18:00, to help you resolve issues quickly. Whether a sash cord has snapped or a pane of glass has been smashed, I arrive to assess the situation directly. If the damage requires a bespoke replacement part, such as a custom-made timber section or a specific double-glazed unit, I will professionally board and weatherproof the opening to protect your interior until the permanent joinery is ready for installation.

02

Can you repair my period window without replacing the frame?

Many of the sash windows in Westminster can be saved rather than fully replaced, even after significant damage or years of decay. My approach focuses on restoring existing box frames by splicing in seasoned timber to repair rotted sills or replacing worn sash cords and pulleys. By maintaining your original box frames and weight systems, we preserve the authentic sightlines that are often protected by local conservation guidelines, avoiding the need for disruptive structural work to your interior plaster or external masonry.

03

Preserving architectural character during emergency glazing

Westminster is home to a wealth of delicate historic joinery that requires a materials-literate approach. I work exclusively with timber to ensure that any glass replacement or sash repair remains consistent with your property's original design. When performing broken glass replacement, I use high-quality materials that match your existing profiles, ensuring that your home remains compliant with local heritage expectations. Whether your property features simple Victorian sashes or intricate Georgian multi-pane arrangements, I ensure the finished result is both secure and aesthetically correct.

"We are very happy with Eden Joinery's work: we had a completely new sash fitted, and four sashes fitted into our existing frames. Our windows look fantastic - and no more draughts! Terry and son were courteous, tidy, with competitive rates, and took obvious pride in their work. They went the extra mile to fix a problem with one of our frames, and all windows were finished to a high standard. We would not hesitate to recommend them."

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear guidance on our same-day emergency glazing, secure timber boarding, and heritage sash window repairs across Westminster and South London.

How quickly can you attend to a broken sash window?

+

We offer same-day call-outs across South West London and Surrey for urgent repairs between 08:00 and 18:00, Monday to Saturday. If we can’t finish the permanent joinery on the first visit, we will board up the window and make it completely weather-proof so your home remains secure while we prepare the timber or glass.

Can you match the glass in a conservation area or listed building?

+

Yes. We understand the strict rules in places like the Shaftesbury Park Estate or Richmond Green. We can provide like-for-like glass replacements, including ultra-slim double-glazed units that fit into original timber sashes without changing the historic profile or sightlines.

Do you repair uPVC or aluminium windows in an emergency?

+

No, we work exclusively with timber sash windows. This focus allows us to carry the specific tools, seasoned timber, and specialist glass needed to repair Victorian, Georgian, and Edwardian windows to a high standard.

What happens if the timber frame is rotten as well as the glass being broken?

+

If we find rot while repairing a broken pane, we can usually save the original frame. We use timber splicing techniques to cut away the soft, decayed sections—often at the sill or the bottom of the sash—and rebuild the section using durable hardwood or Accoya. This is far more cost-effective than a full replacement and preserves the character of your home.

Is there a guarantee on the emergency work you do?

+

All our permanent repairs are carried out to the highest trade standards. If we install new bespoke timber windows as part of the restoration, these come with a comprehensive 10-year guarantee and FENSA certification.
