Bringing in sash window repair specialists to fix you sash window is not quite the same as bringing in someone to fix a modern window. There are different issues that a sash window may face. Glass panes can break, especially if they are hit with a round, blunt object like a baseball. More than that, the weighted “sash” can easily get stuck within the window frame causing the window to remain either open or closed.

Sash window repair specialists understand that it is not always easy to replace a pane of glass that is more than 100 years old. However, if it can be done it should be done. Throwing away the historical significance of the sash window is something that should be avoided whenever possible.

While it is true that many sash window repair specialists will have to work on windows and glass panes that are more than 100 years old, the successful job is well worth it. Once you get rid of the sash windows there really is no way to get them back. The change will alter the genuine look of your home forever.

It is not common for the stacked glass panes to break, although they can be helped along thanks to the neighbor kids’ baseballs or if the window slams closed. More often than not, sash window repair specialists find themselves working on the frame of the window.

With the “sash, ” or weighted pulley, hidden within the frame of the window, after 100 or so years it could be expected that the pulley would get kinked or even wear through. Replacing this weighted pulley requires that the window frame is disassembled and the weighted pulley is restored while it remains in the window frame.

In most cases, this is how the original window is anyway. Sash window repair specialists can help you preserve the special history laden windows in your home while keeping the quality of the repair top notch.
