Repairs & servicing in Highgate

Homes in Highgate are mostly Georgian houses, Victorian villas, terraces and mansion blocks. For period properties, repairing rather than replacing existing windows can avoid planning complications, particularly where original features are expected to be retained.

On Victorian homes with older uPVC sashes or casements, replacing worn hinges and seals can often cure draughts without disturbing the frames or decoration. In flats, check whether windows and doors are your responsibility or the freeholder's under the lease before booking repairs, especially for communal entrances.

We make sash windows to the original proportions and glazing bar patterns. Where the old frames must stay, secondary glazing fitted inside improves comfort without altering anything from the street. Houses on Archway Road face a lot of traffic, and acoustic glass helps there. Highgate is about 5.2 miles from our factory.

We repair windows and doors of most types, including replacing misted glass units, faulty locks, handles, hinges and worn seals. Repairs suit homeowners, landlords and businesses whose frames are basically sound but not working properly, and can be a sensible alternative to full replacement.
