Sash Windows
We specialise in all sash & case window refurbishment and renovation work. Our skilled painters are experienced in interior and exterior sash & case paint work. In Edinburgh’s most historic buildings, the window sash, window framing, and the architectural detail surrounding them were all carefully designed to harmonize with the style, scale, and character of the building.
It is important, therefore, to retain the original window configuration, including the size of openings, sills, lintels, decorative wood or masonry mouldings, as well as the sashes themselves. Refurbishment, renovation and even replacing sashes and frames is often unnecessary, because in many cases existing historic windows can be repaired. If it is necessary to replace or alter any window elements, such changes must be made according to the Commission’s Window Rules.

John Mullin04/03/2024I highly recommend Dean and his team, who did a fantastic job renovating my flat. This included repairing the windows, painting the garden railings, sanding and varnishing the floors, painting the kitchen units, and papering and painting every room (including moving the furniture around). Dean and his team maintain impeccable standards and are a pleasure to work with. They consistently arrive on time and are friendly and approachable. I would not use anyone else.Marv EWG26/01/2024Excellent work, highly recommended thanks again!Lule Emmett26/01/2024Great work, great attention to detail. Reasonably priced.
