Sash Window Replication across Oxfordshire
What makes Sash Window Replication work in Oxfordshire is usually invisible once it is finished. Local property is overwhelmingly Cotswold stone cottages, Georgian college-town terraces and new-build fringe estates, which is why we never quote from a catalogue. Add river-valley mist and prolonged autumn damp to that and rot behind stone reveals where water tracks in at the joint becomes the usual trigger for replacement. Where we put the effort is copying the surviving original rather than approximating it.
Nothing is ordered until someone has stood in front of the opening with a tape. One call is usually enough for us to tell you roughly where the price will land.
One local point to factor in: listed and curtilage-listed properties are unusually common in the historic centres.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Oxfordshire?
Yes. We cover the whole of Oxfordshire including Oxford, Banbury, Bicester, Abingdon and the surrounding villages. Listed and curtilage-listed properties are unusually common in the historic centres. Because river-valley mist and prolonged autumn damp, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
Can you match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
What if the opening is out of square?
Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.
Will the finish need maintaining?
A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.
Do you take a deposit?
Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.
