Window and door repairs for aluminium systems.

Windows that will not close, doors that drop, handles that spin, draughts, condensation and leaks. We repair the aluminium window and door systems on London's larger buildings, with the parts to match.

Who this is for

Managing agents and concierge teams with a list of window and door faults across a block, developers closing out defects, and commercial building managers with entrance or automatic doors that fail at the worst moment. We clear lists of faults in one planned visit rather than one call-out at a time.

How a repair job runs

  1. Fault list

    Send the list, photographs and any labels on the frames. We identify the system from these in most cases.

  2. Survey

    For a block, one survey visit to confirm the systems and measure parts. For a single urgent fault, we come with the common parts.

  3. Parts and programme

    Parts ordered, a visit programme agreed with the concierge or managing agent, residents notified.

  4. Repair and record

    Each repair recorded against the flat or door number, with photographs, in one report.

Questions building managers ask

Do I need to know the system?

No. Send photographs of the frame, any labels and the fault. We identify most systems from the profiles.

Does a stiff or leaking window need replacing?

Rarely. Most faults are gear, seals, drainage or alignment, which are repaired. We tell you when a frame is beyond repair.

Can you repair from inside the flat?

Most window gear is accessed from inside. External seals and drainage may need cradle, MEWP or rope access, which we plan with you.

Do you hold parts?

We stock common gear, hinges, handles and gaskets for Schüco, Reynaers, Kawneer, Cortizo and Velfac. Other parts come from the manufacturer with the lead time stated in the quotation.
