Monmouthshire is a county of stone farmhouses, Georgian market-town houses and generous rural plots. That is exactly the kind of building stock a sash window 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 work is cut to the dimensions taken from your Monmouthshire property, so there is no packing, no filler and no gap that opens up in year two.
How we build it
Hardware is specified to the weight it is carrying, not to a price point. Soft-close runners are rated for the drawer load, hinges are adjustable in three planes, and sliding gear is sized so a full-height door still moves with one finger a decade later.
Finish and materials
Every finished job gets a short handover: what the surface is, how to clean it, and how to adjust a hinge if a door drops after the heating has been on for a season. Adjustment is normal in timber and takes about two minutes once you know which screw to turn.

Straight answers
Timber Sash Windows in Monmouthshire — common questions
Cords and weights, or spiral balances?
Cords and weights for a traditional box sash — they are repairable indefinitely and feel right. Spiral balances suit a slimmer box and are the only option where there is no weight pocket, but they wear out and need replacing.
What timber do you use?
Accoya as standard for painted sashes — it is dimensionally very stable, which matters in a component that has to slide. European redwood is available at lower cost with a shorter finish life.
Will the new windows still rattle?
No. The brush seals take up the clearance the sashes need to slide, so they are quiet in wind while still moving freely.
Can traditional sash windows be double glazed?
Yes. Slim-profile double glazed units from 11mm fit into a properly made sash without the sightlines going heavy. They weigh more, so the counterweights are recalculated and the cords upgraded.
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.
