Dover, famed for its striking white cliffs and rich maritime legacy, is one of Kent’s most iconic and historically significant towns. Beyond its renowned cliffs and historic castle, the streets of Dover boast an array of period properties that reflect the area’s rich architectural heritage. Many of these homes feature original sash windows and traditional wooden doors, which are central to the town’s timeless character and coastal charm. Preserving these features is vital for maintaining Dover’s unique appeal, and our team specialises in the repair and restoration of sash windows and wooden doors, tailored specifically to the needs of historic properties.

With years of experience working on period homes across Dover, we understand the challenges and unique requirements of traditional sash windows and wooden doors. Over time, these elements can suffer from wear and tear, leading to issues such as draughts, sticking frames, rattling sashes, and frayed cords. Our process begins with a comprehensive inspection to assess the condition of your windows and doors, enabling us to develop a bespoke repair plan that respects their original design while subtly improving functionality.

For minor repairs, we address issues like re-cording, tightening frames, and realigning sashes to restore smooth operation. When more extensive restoration is required, we carefully replace worn or damaged components with handcrafted replicas that match the original materials and design. This approach ensures your sash windows retain their historic appearance while benefiting from improved durability and performance.

To enhance the comfort and energy efficiency of older properties, we offer discreet draught-proofing solutions. Our techniques seal gaps to minimise heat loss and block cold draughts, helping to keep your home warm and energy-efficient without altering the traditional look of your sash windows or wooden doors. This balance of modern comfort and historical accuracy is ideal for Dover’s coastal climate.

Our expertise also extends to wooden doors, where we provide both repair and replacement services. Whether restoring an existing door or crafting a new one that complements the architectural style of your home, we approach every project with attention to detail and a commitment to quality. We are experienced in working with various window styles, from classic single and double-hung sash windows to more distinctive designs like curved and arch-top windows. For those seeking enhanced insulation, we also offer double glazing and secondary glazing options that integrate seamlessly with traditional sash windows.

Preserving Dover’s architectural heritage is at the heart of everything we do. Our dedication to craftsmanship ensures that each repair, restoration, and draught-proofing project is carried out to the highest standards, helping your property maintain its timeless appeal while offering modern comfort and functionality.
