Sash Window Lamination
Lamination strengthens wooden components by applying a thin, durable layer that reduces rot risk and protects against weather, extending window life without compromising historical integrity.
Modern Alternatives to Traditional Window Putty
Traditional putty offers an authentic look but is prone to weather damage. We use advanced sealants that last longer, provide better insulation, and resist moisture while maintaining a classic appearance.
Double Glazing for Sash Windows
Double glazing improves thermal efficiency and sound insulation. Since casement windows often lack the depth for standard double glazing, we use thin, high-performance thermal glass. This glass fits historic frames, preserving their appearance while enhancing insulation. When needed, we carefully widen and reinforce frames to support the glazing without altering their original look.
Professional Draught Proofing
Our draught-proofing service seals gaps to eliminate cold air and improve energy efficiency without affecting the window’s aesthetic. We use high-quality seals for airtightness while ensuring smooth operation.
Heritage & Grade 2 Listed Building Sash Windows
We specialise in conserving sash windows in heritage and Grade 2 listed buildings. Our work complies with regulations and maintains the building’s character while improving performance and longevity.
At Hallmark Bespoke Decorating, we combine traditional craftsmanship with modern techniques to restore, refurbish, and rejuvenate sash windows. Contact us today to preserve your property’s heritage and enhance its beauty.
