    From initial contact, Chris was helpful, clear and reliable. Turned up for the job early and completed the work with no fuss and no mess. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a glazer.

    Double Glazing Repair

    Posted 12 May

    Excellent experience in what could have been a very stressful situation

    I would definitely recommend this company to anyone who is having problems with their glazing. Chris visited us within 24 hours and did an excellent job repairing the window by replacing the damaged hinges due to our poor maintenance. Chris was polite, friendly and advised us on how to maintain all our other fittings. All in all an excellent experience in what could have been a very stressful situation.

UPVC DOORS Repairs


If your uPVC or Composite door is sticking or catching Chris can make the adjustments needed to get your door working smoothly again.

It maybe door adjustments, hinge adjustments or in need of a Toe & Heel adjustment.


UPVC Windows Repairs


UPVC windows can fail due to the elements or lack of maintenance causing issues with the handle, locking mechanism or the hinges.

Chris is able to overhaul or replace all these important parts of your uPVC windows for you and get the windows working like new again.


GLASS REPLACEMENT


Double glazed units in uPVC windows & doors often fail over time and lose their seal which causes them to go misty and look unsightly.

These faulty units can easily be replaced with brand new energy efficient double-glazed units to give your windows a new lease of life & we recycle all your old glass units.

Locks & Mechanisms will often fail due to them not being maintained correctly or regularly.

It is extremely important to have your window and door mechanisms, locks, hinges etc. Correctly and regularly maintained and lubricated with the correct products.
