Sash Window Restoration in Llanfyllin & Mid Wales

Llanfyllin, Llanfair Caereinion & Beyond

Sash Window Specialists Serving Mid Wales

Rural Mid Wales has a remarkable stock of old farmhouses, period townhouses and listed buildings — many with original sash windows that rarely receive the specialist attention they deserve. The remoteness of the area means that skilled traditional joinery work can be difficult to find, and too often these windows are replaced unnecessarily when all they need is proper repair. Marches Heritage Restoration is based in Welshpool and covers the whole of this area, bringing a repair-first approach to properties that have been waiting for it.

We work across Llanfyllin, Llanfair Caereinion, Llanrhaeadr ym Mochnant, Llanymynech and the surrounding countryside. Rural properties often present a particular combination of problems — timber that has been painted repeatedly without maintenance, draughts that have been tolerated rather than fixed, and sash cords that have snapped one by one until the windows no longer open at all. All of these are repairable. A window that looks beyond saving from the outside is often salvageable once properly assessed.

For cold rural properties, draught-proofing makes a substantial difference. We fit AQ21 seals and quality weather strip — not brush pile — which closes draughts at the meeting rail and around the sashes without interfering with the window's appearance or movement. In an old farmhouse, this can noticeably reduce heating costs and improve comfort through winter.

We are experienced in working on listed buildings, which is particularly relevant in this area where many older properties are listed. A free survey is the right starting point — we will come out, look at the windows properly, and give you an honest written estimate. No obligation, no pressure.
