Window problems usually come down to a few things: the window opening shifting with the weather or general building movement, winders wearing out over time, or flyscreens working loose. Any of these can leave a window stiff to open, hard to latch, or unable to stay where you want it to stay.

Homes close to the ocean have an extra factor to contend with — salt air corrodes metal window hardware over time, and the stays and hinges are usually first to go. Choosing stainless steel stays and hinges when parts are replaced helps reduce this and makes them last much longer in a coastal climate.

Questions we get asked

The winder turns but the window does not move. How do I fix this?

A winder that spins freely has stripped its thread; one that turns but the arm stays put is damaged.

The window will not stay open in the wind. What is wrong?

A worn or bent stay, or a friction hinge that has lost its grip could be the reason your window will not stay open in the wind.

Can you fit locks that meet pool or child-safety rules?

Yes. Restrictors and keyed sash locks can be installed.

Will you replace the windows themselves?

Yes, we can replace windows if needed.
