East Kent is a region rich in history and natural beauty, from the medieval streets of Canterbury to the coastal charm of Deal and Sandwich. Known for its picturesque countryside and stunning seaside towns, East Kent is also home to a wealth of period properties that reflect centuries of architectural heritage. Many of these homes feature elegant sash windows and traditional wooden doors, which are integral to their timeless appeal and historic character. Our team specialises in restoring and maintaining these cherished features, ensuring they continue to define the unique charm of East Kent.
With extensive experience working on historic properties throughout East Kent, we understand the importance of preserving the authenticity of original sash windows and wooden doors. These features, often central to the elegance of Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian homes in the area, require careful restoration to address common issues like draughts, sticking sashes, and rattling frames. We begin each project with a detailed inspection to assess your property’s needs, creating a bespoke repair plan that respects the original design while enhancing functionality.
Our services cover everything from minor repairs and re-cording to complete sash window replacements. We work with a variety of window styles, including single and double-hung sash windows, box sash windows, and more intricate designs such as curved and arch-top windows. For homeowners looking to improve insulation without compromising the period aesthetic, we provide double glazing and secondary glazing solutions that blend seamlessly with traditional designs.
In addition to sash window restoration, we specialise in the repair and replacement of traditional wooden doors. Whether restoring an original door or crafting a bespoke replacement, we ensure every detail aligns with the architectural style of your home. Our draught-proofing services further enhance energy efficiency and comfort by sealing gaps and reducing heat loss, all while maintaining the classic appearance of your windows and doors.
From the historic homes of Sandwich to the grand townhouses of Dover, East Kent’s architecture is a testament to its storied past. Our dedication to preserving this heritage is at the core of every project we undertake. Each repair, restoration, and draught-proofing job is completed with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring your property retains its period charm while meeting modern standards of comfort and efficiency.
