Wrexham is a county of brick terraces, former colliery housing and expanding modern estates. 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
We build sash window restoration as cabinetmakers rather than fitters: machined joints, real carcass construction, and a finish applied under workshop conditions before anything reaches your Wrexham address.
How we build it
Moisture matters more than most people expect. Timber is conditioned before machining, and anything going into a kitchen, utility or bathroom is specified in materials that will not swell at the bottom edge. That is why the base of a well-made unit still closes cleanly after five winters.
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 Wrexham — common questions
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.
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.
Do you charge for the survey and drawings?
The measured survey and the quotation are free. If you want fully detailed manufacturing drawings or a 3D visual before committing, that is chargeable and the fee comes off the job if you proceed.
