Our sash window had broken while moving furniture in and I happened to come across klis’ window service. We were grateful that he was able to respond quickly to our urgent need of repairs and he completed the window replacement swiftly and efficiently while making the repair look like the window never broke. I highly recommend this service if you need your windows replaced or repaired.

FAQs

Bespoke Timber Windows
What People Want to Know

1. How do I know if my windows need replacing or just repairing?
Repair is usually right when the core timber frame is structurally sound — broken sash cords, minor draughts, rattling and small areas of surface rot can all be fixed without replacing the whole window. Replacement makes more sense when frames have deteriorated beyond repair, or when you want to upgrade to double glazing. We’ll assess your windows honestly during a free home visit and tell you which option is right — we won’t recommend replacement if a repair will do the job.
 

Yes — this is central to what we do. We replicate original profiles, glazing bar layouts, meeting rail positions and proportions exactly so that replacement windows are indistinguishable from the originals. Whether you have Victorian two-over-two sashes, Edwardian six-over-six, or something more unusual, we work from your existing windows to ensure the replacements are a precise match.

Yes. All our replacement windows are available with modern sealed double-glazed units fitted into traditional timber frames. This gives you significantly better thermal performance and noise reduction while keeping the period appearance intact. Triple glazing is also available for properties on particularly busy roads or where maximum insulation is a priority.

Yes, we have extensive experience working within conservation area guidelines and on listed properties across London. Permitted development rules vary by borough and listing status — we can advise you on what’s likely to be approved before you commit to anything, and we’re familiar with the typical requirements around timber frames, slim-profile double glazing, and matching original designs.

For a typical residential job — two to four windows — we’d normally complete the work in one to two days after the windows have been crafted. Larger projects covering a full property are planned carefully to minimise the time any opening is exposed. We’ll give you a clear timeline when we visit, and we keep disruption to a minimum throughout.

We use high-quality, sustainably sourced African Sapele hardwood selected for stability and longevity. All timber is treated before installation to resist moisture, rot and warping. Properly maintained — painted every five to seven years — good quality timber windows will last decades. We can advise on the best finish and maintenance routine when the job is done.

Yes, always. Removal and full disposal of old frames is included as standard — there are no hidden charges for this. We protect surrounding walls, floors and finishes during installation, and we leave every work area clean and tidy before we go. We also test every window before we leave to make sure it opens, closes and seals correctly.

Costs vary depending on window size, number of windows, glazing specification and any complexity around period matching or conservation requirements. As a general guide, most replacement sash windows start from around £1,200 per window fully installed, depending on the size and configuration. The best way to get an accurate figure is a free home visit — we’ll assess your windows, discuss your requirements and provide a detailed written quote with no obligation to proceed.
