Repairs & servicing in Swiss Cottage

Homes in Swiss Cottage are mostly mansion blocks, Victorian houses converted to flats and post-war estates. 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. Doors on modern homes that have dropped or become hard to lock usually need hinge and keep adjustment, which is quicker and less disruptive than replacing the door.

The Finchley Road (A41) is one of the busiest roads in North London, so acoustic glazing is often the first thing people ask about. We help agree designs with managing agents or freeholders and plan access and parking in advance, as shared buildings and controlled parking zones make careful planning essential.

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.

• Replaces misted or broken glass units
• Fixes sticking, dropped or draughty doors
• Replaces worn locks, hinges and handles
