Golden Ratio Joinery Ltd provides expert Sash Window Repair Services across Hackney (E8, E9 & E5) and the surrounding East London boroughs.
From the historic villas around Victoria Park to the Victorian terraces of Clapton and the warehouse conversions of Dalston and London Fields, Hackney holds one of East London's richest concentrations of original timber joinery. We keep those windows working beautifully — repairing rather than replacing wherever possible to preserve the character that makes a Hackney home special.
A century of London weather leaves period sashes with a familiar set of problems. Our joiners resolve all of them on site:
Worn beads and shrunken timber let cold air in. Discreet brush-pile seals stop the draughts and rattles while keeping the sashes fully operable.
We replace cords in pairs, service the pulleys and re-balance the weights so your sashes glide and stay where you set them.
Rather than scrap a sound window, we splice in matching new timber where decay has set in, then treat and repaint for a lasting repair.
Decades of overpaint seal windows solid. We free and ease them carefully so both sashes move as the maker intended.
Hackney has more than twenty conservation areas — from De Beauvoir Town and Clapton Square to the streets around London Fields — where retaining original windows is expected by the council. Our repairs satisfy those planning guidelines while quietly improving comfort: ask about draught-proofing or a slimline double-glazing retrofit for warmer, quieter rooms.
For windows that need more than a repair we offer full restoration and like-for-like replacement in Hackney, and we work throughout neighbouring Dalston and Stoke Newington.

Yes, absolutely. We specialise in retrofitting slimline double-glazed units into original timber sash windows. This means you don't have to rip out the entire window box, saving money and preserving the historical character of your property.
Costs vary depending on the extent of the damage (e.g., rotten sills vs simple broken cords). However, repairing is almost always significantly cheaper than a full replacement. We provide completely transparent, itemised quotes after a free survey.
