West Yorkshire is a county of millstone-grit terraces, back-to-backs and substantial Victorian villas. 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
Off-the-shelf units are made to standard sizes and then filled out with scribe strips. Our sash window restoration work is cut to the dimensions taken from your West Yorkshire property, so there is no packing, no filler and no gap that opens up in year two.
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
Finishing happens in the workshop wherever possible. Sprayed paint gives an even film that brushwork cannot match, and the only work left on site is the final touch-in around scribes and fixings.

Straight answers
Sash Window Restoration in West Yorkshire — common questions
How do you deal with rot?
We cut the decayed timber out entirely and splice in new — usually Accoya — with a scarfed and glued joint. Filler over rot is a cosmetic fix that fails within two years; we do not do it.
What is involved in overhauling the mechanism?
Ease the sashes, renew the cords, check and rebalance the weights, replace worn pulleys, and refit the beads with new brush seals. Done properly the window runs with one finger and stays where you leave it.
Will draught-proofing alone make a difference?
A significant one. Most of the discomfort from an old sash is air movement, not glass conduction. A full brush-seal overhaul typically cuts the draught to near zero for a fraction of the cost of replacement.
Do you paint them afterwards?
We prepare, prime and can apply the full finish, or leave them primed for your decorator. Repaired areas need the same coating system as the rest for the finish to wear evenly.
What guarantee do you give?
Ten years on workmanship. Hardware carries the manufacturer's warranty, which on good runners and hinges is usually lifetime. Finishes are guaranteed for five years against flaking or delamination in normal domestic use.
