Repair, Renovation and Restoration Services
Be wary of companies that are overly keen to replace your windows. In many cases this is totally unnecessary. A sign of a good, reliable company is that they offer renovation, repair and restoration services, pointing towards a company that understands how these windows work and the common problems faced.
Original windows suffer from wear and tear and moisture exposure due to their age. A window repair company should understand these problems and easily rectify them using tried and tested techniques. Replacing original windows should be the very last option on the table.
Draught Proofing and Glazing Services
A reputable restoration company should also offer a number of other services that are associated with improving these types of windows, such as draught proofing. By offering a wide range of services, it should be clear that the company understands and knows the trade inside out and has taken the time, effort and money to invest in providing a complete repair service performed by trained professionals.
A Sash window renovation, repair and restoration service is a niche market and should only be performed by experienced and trained professionals. Additional services such as providing sound security measures are a good sign of a complete and reliable service.
Do some research whenever you feel you may need the help of a window company. Ensure the they are committed to restoring and renovating your windows rather than replacing them.
