The humble window sash 🪟

While not the most glamorous, the bulk of our mahi is to make replacement sashes - usually broken or damaged by rot or borer.

We typically make these with red or yellow cedar depending on the finish you're after. Cedar is a naturally durable timber with resistance to rot and insects 🪲

If you're in need of a new sashes, get in touch today!
