Roundshaw, part of Wallington in Surrey, features a mix of post-war properties and modern builds with standard uPVC double glazing. Harsh weather and everyday use often lead to wear, but we focus on targeted fixes rather than full replacements. As a local Sutton-based service, we understand the area’s needs and respond efficiently to keep your home secure and draught-free.
Overview
Roundshaw residents often deal with windows that have served well for decades but now show age-related problems. Our service targets uPVC window repairs and double glazing repairs, helping maintain energy efficiency in typical local properties. We exclude more complex types like sash or wooden frames, sticking to what we do best.
Local context matters here—many homes in SM6 have bottom-hung or side-opening uPVC windows exposed to damp conditions near Beddington Park. Issues like misalignment from settling foundations are common, but our toe and heel service can realign them effectively. Trust us for insured, straightforward work by experienced locals.
Common Window Issues We See Locally
In Roundshaw, we frequently handle windows affected by the area’s variable weather and older installations. Damp winters exacerbate hinge wear, while summer expansion causes sticking. Here’s what crops up most:
- Window won’t open: Stiff friction stays from lack of lubrication, common in upstairs bedrooms of 1960s homes.
- Window won’t close: Misaligned frames due to house movement, leaving gaps and security risks.
- Jammed window: Swollen seals after rain, trapping windows halfway.
- Stuck window: Worn handles or locks seizing up, frustrating in kitchen extensions.
- Draughty window: Gaps around edges from poor adjustment, noticeable in exposed properties near roundabouts.
These match patterns we see across symptoms in SM6. Early fixes prevent bigger problems like misted units.
