ninder Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 We used Ian Foster at ifosterwindows.co.uk. They were a recommendation from a friend who'd had hers done by them; they are great and the windows are fab. A neighbour used them as soon as she'd seen our windows too!

mothercourage Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Hatchie, I've done LOADS of research on this very subject. In fact the last two months have been spent scouring the forum for recommendations and visiting people who've already had their windows refurbed. I had quotes from 6 companies and visits from even more. I finally whittled the search down to Sundial (they're mentioned elsewhere on here already). The company is owned by a guy called Steve Carter who's brilliant. Really knowledgeable, not in any way pushy, been in the business for ages, knows his stuff etc. He gave me some really sage advice and saved me from shelling out thousands for replacements. I spoke to other people who have used him and had only good things to say. I also went to see some windows that he'd done for someone else in ED which were very impressive. The thing that set him apart for me was not only his attention to detail but the fact that he refurbs the windows AND paints them. Not many others seem to offer that dual service. Give him a call on 07966493641. Feel free to PM me too if you want more info.

hoot Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I can recommend Sundial. I recently moved to a wreck in East Dulwich and the only good thing about the refurb has been the work done to the windows. The team did a great job on windows that I thought were well beyond repair, saving me thousands in the cost of replacing them. You are welcome to come and have a look at the work. The company is run by Steve Carter 07966 493641 www.sundialps.co.uk Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/26219-recommendations-for-window-refurbishment-specialists/#findComment-585443 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiwi Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 I have had wooden sash windows restored in various properties , over the years , by Klaus the House 07976401767, and I have always been very happy with his work, especially as he has saved me a lot of money , by not ripping them out and replacing them with new ones. I will always employ him in the future for that or any other work in wood.

calla Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Hiya, I'd also like to recommend Steve at Sundial SPS Sash Windows. He was really great at sorting out our drafty sash windows and he saved us a lot of money by recommending restoring rather than replacing. You can reach him at his website http://sundialps.co.uk or on his mobile 07966 493641 - C Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/26219-recommendations-for-window-refurbishment-specialists/#findComment-595450 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mothercourage Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I now have some good before and after pics of the work SPS Windows (formerly Sundial) did on my sash windows, if anyone is interested. The transformation is quite remarkable. Feel free to PM me.

dj81 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Booked Steve and his team on the back of the recommendations on this thread. Thought it was worth adding a post to say that they've just finished doing the windows at the front of our house and they look fantastic, incredible transformation for windows that we thought needed complete replacement.
