Repair A Sash rehung and re-balanced our sash windows and now they are better then new. They were prompt, polite, tidy and hard working. I would highly recommend.

Wonderful job

David, London

I needed to have six sash windows restored and draught-proofed. Boris did a thorough survey, gave me good advice & provided a detailed quote. The work itself was carried out to the highest standard. Boris and his team were highly skilled, and also punctual, tidy and friendly.

Immaculate work - excellent service,

Punctual and tidy

Anthony, London

Boris from Repair A Sash was superb. He helped me choose the right type of windows and came in 30% cheaper than other quotes. His customer service was fabulous and him and his team were totally reliable. Thoroughly recommend.

Brilliant job

Abbie, London

We had 10 Edwardian sash windows and a balcony door that had been neglected and required some serious attention. We knew they were going to be expensive to refurbish but "Repair a Sash" gave us a fair quote and were flexible about timing. They did an excellent job in good time and the windows are now up to modern standards with no more rattles or drafts. They look beautiful too. We are very pleased with the job Boris and his boys did and are happy to recommend them.

We had two casement windows fitted. Boris was efficient, polite, used excellent quality windows and did a great job, offering to return if we had any problems. We thoroughly recommend him.

Boris has been reliable from my first telephone call to completion. He is very competent, works extremely hard to get things right, and will spend whatever time it takes to do the job properly and leave the place clean. His advice was sound and his quote the cheapest. The new sashes are solid, slide like a dream and the rooms are much warmer. I can't recommend him highly enough.
