The frames were sound, but the sashes were painted shut and rattled.<\/p>\n<p>The house sits close to the conservation area in the centre of Marrow Hill, and the owner wanted to keep the street front as it was.<\/p>\n<h2>What we did<\/h2>\n<p>All six windows were painted shut and rattled in the wind. We freed the sashes, replaced cords and pulleys, fitted draught brush strips and repainted the frames.<\/p>\n<p>Two bottom rails had soft wood. Instead of replacing the sashes, we cut out the rotten sections, spliced in new timber and primed every bare surface before painting.<\/p>\n<p>We worked on two windows at a time and fitted temporary boards overnight, so the house was never open to the weather.<\/p>\n<h2>The result<\/h2>\n<p>The cost was about a third of replacement, and the street keeps its original windows.<\/p>\n<p>The rooms are noticeably quieter and the windows open with one hand.<\/p>\n<p>Each window now has new cords and brush seals, and the owner has our care sheet for repainting.<\/p><\/div><div
