Sash Window Cord Replacement
Professional Sash Window Cord Replacement
If your sash window has become difficult to open, slams shut, feels uneven, or the sash cord has snapped completely, it may be time for a professional cord replacement sash windows service.
At NJS Sash Windows, we specialise in sash window cord replacement, restoring smooth operation while preserving the original character of traditional sash windows. Broken or worn sash cords are one of the most common problems with older windows, but thankfully, they can often be repaired without replacing the entire window.
Signs Your Sash Window Cords Need Replacing
You may need sash window cord replacement if:
- Your sash window drops shut suddenly
- The window feels heavy or difficult to lift
- One side of the sash hangs lower than the other
- You hear weights dropping inside the frame
- The sash cord has snapped or frayed
- The window no longer opens smoothly
Old cords naturally wear over time, especially on period timber sash windows.
