Lincolnshire is a county of limestone cottages, Georgian market-town stock and generous rural plots. That is exactly the kind of building stock a sash window restoration has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.
How we approach it
The difference between a fitted job and a fitted-looking job is the setting out. For sash window restoration in Lincolnshire we rod the job first, so what arrives on site already accounts for the bows, the skirting and the ceiling line.
How we build it
Carcass work is birch ply or MR MDF depending on span and load. Face frames and doors are solid hardwood. Everything is machined on the same setting so stiles, rails and reveals line through, and shadow gaps stay parallel from one end of the run to the other.
Finish and materials
You can have it primed for your own decorator, sprayed in any RAL or heritage colour, or left in oiled timber. Oiled finishes can be refreshed at home; sprayed finishes are harder wearing and are what we recommend for kitchens and anything at knee height.

Straight answers
Sash Window Restoration in Lincolnshire — common questions
Can you save the original glass?
Yes, and it is worth saving. Old cylinder and crown glass has a movement and a slight distortion that no modern glass reproduces. We de-glaze carefully, keep it aside and re-putty on reassembly.
Can double glazing be retrofitted into original sashes?
Sometimes. The rebate has to be deep enough to take a slim unit, and the sash has to be strong enough for the extra weight. Where it is not viable, secondary glazing or a high-performance draught-proofing overhaul gets much of the benefit.
How long does restoration take per window?
One to two days per window on site for an overhaul. If sashes need to go back to the workshop for splicing, allow two to three weeks and we fit temporary boarding or a holding sash.
Is it worth restoring rather than replacing?
If the boxes and pulley stiles are sound, almost always. Restoration keeps the original glass and joinery, is cheaper, and in a conservation area or listed building it is frequently the only option that will be approved.
Do you work with architects and builders?
Regularly. We can work to your drawings and specification, price from a schedule, and co-ordinate with the main contractor's programme. We are equally happy dealing directly with a homeowner from a rough sketch.
