The Service
Windows That Work Like New — Without the Replacement Cost
Double glazed windows are designed to last but they need occasional attention. Hinges seize, seals harden, handles stiffen and mechanisms slow down. Left unattended small problems become bigger ones — and what could have been a simple service becomes a costly repair.
Our full window overhaul covers every window in your property in a single visit. We work through each one systematically — cleaning, lubricating, adjusting and replacing where needed — and leave you with a written condition report detailing what we found and what we did.
It's the most cost effective way to extend the life of your windows and avoid reactive repairs down the line.
What's Included
What Our Window Overhaul Covers
Every overhaul follows the same thorough process for each window in the property:
Hardware Inspection & Lubrication
All hinges, stays, handles and lock mechanisms cleaned and lubricated with specialist silicone spray. Stiff mechanisms freed and tested through full range of movement.
Hinge & Stay Adjustment
Friction stays adjusted so windows hold open at the correct angle without slamming or sagging. Dropped sashes realigned where possible without parts.
Lock Mechanism Check
Multipoint shoot bolts tested for correct engagement with keeps. Misaligned mechanisms adjusted. Failed or worn components identified and quoted separately.
Seal & Gasket Inspection
Full perimeter check of all rubber seals and gaskets. Brittle, split or detached sections replaced. Draught and weather resistance restored.
Glazing Check
Each glass unit inspected for misting, cracks, chips and correct packer positioning. Any issues reported with a separate quote to rectify.
Glazing Bead Check
Beads checked for correct fitting and condition. Loose or damaged sections re-secured.
Clean Down
All windows cleaned down on completion. Frames wiped, glass cleaned, no mess left behind.
Written Condition Report
A full written report of every window inspected — what was serviced, what was found and any recommended remedial work with indicative pricing. Invaluable for landlords managing compliance and maintenance records.

Written Report
You receive a full written condition report on completion. Every window covered, every issue noted, all recommended works priced.
Remedial Works

For Landlords & Letting Agents
The Smart Choice for Landlords & Letting Agents
Window maintenance is one of the most commonly neglected areas of rental property upkeep — until a tenant complains, a window fails to lock or an inspection flags an issue.
Our overhaul service gives landlords and letting agents complete visibility of window condition across their portfolio. One visit, one report, all issues identified and priced. You decide what to fix and when — but you know exactly where you stand.
Compliance
Landlords — Staying Compliant
Our condition reports support your compliance position
Poorly maintained windows contribute to condensation, damp and mould problems in rental properties — issues that are increasingly under scrutiny following changes to housing legislation. Blocked trickle vents, failed seals and windows that cannot be opened all affect ventilation and can accelerate moisture problems. Our condition reports document window performance and ventilation provision — useful evidence of proactive maintenance should any compliance question arise.
