Sash Window Restoration Lewes
Lewes is rich in original sash windows, many of which have survived for more than a century.
At Cavendish & Cole, we believe in restoring rather than replacing wherever possible.
Our sash window restoration services include:
- Careful repairs to decayed or damaged timber using matching hardwoods or Accoya
- Replacement of cords, pulleys, and weights for smooth sash movement
- Draught-proofing to eliminate rattles and improve insulation
- Reglazing, including the option for slim double glazing in heritage-sensitive projects
- Full repainting and protective finishing
Our team understands the unique challenges of working on listed buildings and older properties. We restore your windows with attention to detail and respect for your home’s history.
Sash Window Replacement Lewes
If your windows are beyond repair or have been replaced with unsuitable materials like uPVC, we can craft bespoke timber sash window replacements that match the original period features of your home.
Our replacements include:
- Handcrafted box frames with cords and counterweights
- Accurate mouldings, horns, and glazing bar layouts
- Optional slimline double-glazing for improved thermal performance
- Spring balance systems as an alternative where access is restricted
- Long-lasting finishes suited to Lewes’ varied climate
We create every window in our Sussex workshop using sustainably sourced FSC-certified timber and install them with precision and care.

Discreet double glazing designed for traditional sash windows When it comes to upgrading sash windows in period or listed properties, finding a glazing solution that delivers energy efficiency without compromising aesthetics can be a challenge.
All our glazing is selected for quality, energy efficiency, and visual compatibility with period-style joinery. We work closely with homeowners, architects, and conservation officers
Living in a bustling town, near a main road, or under a flight path doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice peace and quiet—nor the classic style of your sash windows.
Privacy glazing is a common requirement in bathrooms, cloakrooms, and entryways—but standard modern options often look out of place in traditional homes. That’s why we source a range of authentic obscured and patterned glass styles that work in harmony with Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian architecture.
