Repairs & servicing in N16

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.

For those homes the challenge is getting the proportions right: sash-style windows that keep the glazing bars and sightlines of the originals. Stamford Hill, further north, has bigger Victorian and inter-war houses. The A10 corridor is loud. We are around 2.9 miles away.

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.

• Fixes sticking, dropped or draughty doors
• Replaces worn locks, hinges and handles
