Timber Box Frame Repair in Ashford , Surrey

Our approach to sash window restoration prioritises the longevity of your existing joinery. We address rot caused by moisture ingress, a common issue in our local climate, by carefully removing damaged wood and replacing it with durable hardwood splices. These repairs are seamlessly integrated into the original frame, ensuring a robust finish that stands up to the elements. By choosing to restore rather than replace, you maintain the authentic profile and architectural charm that defines your property.

Rotten sills and degraded pulley stiles are frequent issues for period villas in Surrey, often leading to draughts, rattles, or windows that no longer glide correctly. We approach these repairs by reinforcing the core structure of the box frame. Our joinery work involves meticulous attention to the parting beads and staff beads, ensuring that every component is aligned and operational. This restoration process effectively eliminates draughts and improves the thermal efficiency of your windows while keeping the original brick reveal intact.

Many residents in Ashford and the wider Surrey region are concerned about conservation area constraints when upgrading their windows. Generally, like-for-like timber repairs do not require planning permission. However, if your property is listed or subject to specific local planning controls, we provide expert guidance to ensure our restoration techniques meet all heritage requirements. We work closely with our clients to ensure all joinery complies with local standards while delivering the performance expected of modern, high-quality timber windows.

We believe in transparency and providing homeowners with a clear understanding of what their windows require. During our initial survey, Charlie Burgess will conduct a thorough physical assessment of your frames, sills, weights, and glass. This enables us to provide a fixed, written quotation detailing the necessary repairs before any work commences. As a FENSA registered specialist, we maintain the highest standards of workmanship across all our projects, supported by a 10-year guarantee on new timber installations.
