NJS Sash Windows – Traditional Craftsmanship for Peterborough’s Period Homes
Your local specialists in the repair, restoration, and care of wooden sash windows.
Based in Etton, on the outskirts of Peterborough, NJS Sash Windows has been helping homeowners preserve the character and heritage of their properties since 2005 . We believe that original timber windows do not need to be replaced to perform beautifully. With over two decades of specialist experience, we focus on breathing new life into existing joinery—saving you money, retaining your home's authenticity, and avoiding the sterile look of modern plastic alternatives.
Our Services in Peterborough
We provide a comprehensive range of services specifically for wooden sash windows across Peterborough, Stamford, and the surrounding Cambridgeshire villages.
Sash Window Repairs: From broken cords and sticking sashes to replacing individual glass panes. We fix the specific problem without requiring a full frame replacement .
Sash Window Restoration: A full overhaul of your existing windows. We typically remove the windows, strip old paint, repair rotten timber, replace putty, and reassemble to ensure smooth, draught-free operation.
Resin Timber Repairs: A modern solution for localized rot. We use high-quality resin systems to repair damaged timber, which is stronger than wood and fully weatherproof—an ideal alternative to splicing in new wood where appropriate .
Sash Window Draught Proofing: The number one complaint about period windows is the draft. We install discreet, high-performance weather seals that do not ruin the aesthetic but drastically reduce heat loss and rattles .
Heritage & Listed Building Work: We understand the strict regulations regarding period properties in Peterborough. Our repair-first approach is usually preferable to conservation officers, and we work to preserve the original glass and joinery details wherever possible.
Why Choose NJS Sash Windows?
Local Expertise
We are not a national franchise sending generic fitters. We are a local business operating out of Church Farm, Etton, and we understand the specific architectural styles of Georgian and Victorian homes found throughout the PE postcode area .
Repair, Don't Replace
Many companies want to sell you new windows. NJS was founded on the principle of repair and restoration. If your frames are fundamentally sound, we can restore them to full working order for a fraction of the cost of replacement .
Traditional Methods, Modern Materials
We combine traditional joinery skills with modern advancements like double-glazed retrofits (where permitted) and advanced wood preservation treatments. This ensures your windows look historically accurate but perform for the 21st century.
Serving Peterborough and Beyond
We are proud to serve homeowners across Peterborough city centre, the cathedral quarter, and villages including Stamford, Etton, Helpston, Barnack, Wansford, and Oundle. If you have a Victorian terrace or a Georgian manor, we speak your language.
