Full Sash Window Restoration In Somerset, Dorset & Wiltshire
Preserving original timber sash windows with skilled craftsmanship
Artisan Sash Co specialises in the full restoration of traditional timber sash windows across Somerset, Dorset and Wiltshire. I specialise in repairing and conserving original timber sash windows rather than replacing them, helping to preserve the character, value and performance of period properties.
​
A full sash window restoration can transform draughty, sticking, or deteriorating windows into smooth-running, energy-efficient features while retaining their historic charm.
What is Full Sash Window Restoration?
Full sash window restoration involves carefully removing, repairing, and refurbishing original timber sash windows to return them to proper working order.
This process is ideal for windows that are:
-
Difficult to open or close
-
Rattling or draughty
-
Showing signs of timber decay or rot
-
Out of balance or with broken cords
​​
Restoration is often more cost-effective and environmentally friendly than replacement and is usually preferred for listed buildings and conservation areas.
Whats Included in a Full Sash Window Restoration?
A typical full restoration may include:
-
Removal of sashes from the frame
-
Replacement of sash cords and balancing weights
-
Timber repairs and splicing of decayed sections
-
Draught proofing using discreet brush seals
-
Easing and realigning sashes for smooth operation
-
Repairs to glazing putty and glass
-
Priming, painting, and finishing
-
Reinstallation and testing for smooth, balanced movement
​Every window is assessed individually, and only necessary work is carried out to preserve as much original material as possible.
