Broken Gearbox and Door Locks

Locating and replacing door locks and broken window gearbox mechanism parts can be time-consuming and often not cost-effective. Sometimes, The time spent finding and installing the replacement part can cost up to a few hundred pounds; most of the time, you want to spend less on a repair. If the part has a manufacturer’s name stamped on it, a quick Google search might help you find the new replacement mechanism. However, many hardware companies have updated their stock over the years, and older mechanism units and locks have become obsolete. We recommend this company, spares4repairs, as the first place to track your requirements. Once you’ve found the new part and have it, call us. We can provide a quote to refit this for you, ensuring a cost-effective solution for your repair needs.

Broken Down Units

When dealing with broken sealed units, it’s essential to consider the overall longevity and condition of the windows. Replacing individual units may not always be cost-effective, especially if the windows were installed simultaneously. Double-glazed units typically come with a 5-year manufacturer guarantee and a lifespan of 10 to 15 years before deterioration. Estimating replacement costs at £150.00 per unit, regardless of size, can give you an idea of the price of replacing the glass units. However, additional expenses may arise for toughened units or when replicating decorative features like Georgian bars or leadwork. In such cases, it may be advantageous to allocate the replacement glass cost toward acquiring new energy-rated Windows & Doors replacements, which offer enhanced security measures and a ten-year guarantee. Our replacements come with argon gas and a comprehensive warranty, ensuring the longevity and quality of your investment.

Conservatory Roof Repairs.

Conservatories are subject to structural wear and tear over time, necessitating the need for repairs. Common issues include doors stopping functioning correctly or the roof developing leaks, often due to slipped glass or polycarbonate panels. Another issue to look out for is the wall joint between the existing wall and the conservatory, which may be sealed with flashband tape that can crack over time, allowing water to seep in. We have solutions for most of these scenarios. Feel free to call us or send pictures of your issue so we can assess the situation and provide you with an estimated cost.
