Let’s talk Trickle Vents.

Under the current building regulations, trickle vents are now standard and mandatory on almost all new and replacement windows.

🤔 What are trickle vents?
They are small, controllable slots built into the top of your window frames that allow fresh air to circulate naturally, even when your windows are securely locked.

💨 Why are they required?
Modern windows are incredibly airtight (which is great for your heating bills!). However, without proper ventilation, everyday activities like cooking, showering, and drying clothes can lead to trapped moisture, condensation, and nasty mold growth. Trickle vents keep your indoor air fresh and healthy without creating a freezing draft.

🛠️ Do I really have to have them?
In short: yes. If your old windows had them, the new ones must have them. If your old windows didn’t have them, the new ones still need them to comply with current ventilation standards.

Don't worry—modern trickle vents are sleek, color-matched to your frames, and completely adjustable so you can open or close them whenever you like.

Looking to upgrade your ventilation - I can install trickle vents into your current windows without the need for you to spend out on brand new windows.

Why did my window handle stop working? 🛠️

It’s a frustrating feeling: you turn the handle, but nothing happens. Or worse, the handle is stuck solid. Usually, the handle itself isn't the only part to blame—it’s often a "team effort" between three things:

1 The spindle detaches from the handle and falls out resulting in a new handle and the lock mechanism breaks but different. Locks break in different ways.

2 The Gearbox is Seized: The handle is just the "steering wheel." If the gearbox (the engine) inside the window or door has jammed due to rust or broken springs, the handle has nowhere to go.

3 Forced Operation: If a door is hard to lock, many people "force" the handle upward. This puts massive pressure on the internal components until they eventually snap.

The Fix: Whether it’s a detached spindle or a broken gearbox, we can replace the parts without needing a whole new window or door!

Why is my window/door sticking? 🚪🤔

It’s easy to ignore hinges until you’re struggling to lock your front door or your bedroom window won't close flush. But why do they fail in the first place? Here is one reason.

Metal Fatigue & Weight: Over time, the sheer weight of a heavy double-glazed unit pulls on the friction stays (the hinges). This causes them to "drop" or bow, meaning the window no longer lines up with the frame.

Check for these 3 signs: 🚩

🚩The Gap: Can you see light or feel a draft coming through the side where the hinges are?

🚩The Drop: Does your door or window "drag" along the bottom of the frame when you open it?

🚩The Sound: Is there a grinding or clicking noise when you move it?

The Good News: You usually don’t need a new window or door! A simple hinge replacement or adjustment can make your windows feel brand new again.

Why is my window foggy? 🌫️

Ever wonder why your double glazing looks cloudy or has water droplets trapped inside? That’s what we call a "blown" or failed unit.

The Science:
Double-glazed windows are two panes of glass sealed together with a vacuum or gas-filled space in between. When the perimeter seal breaks, moist air creeps in. Once that moisture is inside, it’s trapped—leading to that annoying internal condensation.

Quick Facts:

🔴 It’s not just an eyesore: A blown unit loses its thermal efficiency, meaning your heat escapes and your bills go up.

🟡 Age Matters: Most double-glazing seals have a lifespan of 10–25 years. If yours are hitting the double digits, keep an eye out for misting!

🟢 Repair > Replacement: You don’t need to rip out the whole PVC frame. We simply swap the glass "sandwich" for a brand-new one.
