Questions
- Can you fit a new front door lock?
- Yes — euro-cylinder or mortice. I check your insurance policy wording first so the replacement meets your requirements, usually BS3621.
- Can you repair a broken sash cord?
- Yes — standard repair. One weight pocket at a time, no need to remove the frame. 1–2 hours per sash.
- What about draughty old windows?
- Sash and casement windows can be draught-proofed without replacement. Brush seals on the sash stiles, EPDM on meeting rails. Pays back in lower heating bills.
