Colin is very knowledgeable about his craft and takes care to offer a professional service. He communicates well, and if he is going to be a little delayed in arriving he lets you know. He works hard and clearly takes pride in a job well done. I would recommend him to others seeking window sash repairs.

Colin made a wonderful job of repairing three old double-hung sash windows in my Te Aro apartment. Each window had its own set of problems and Colin was able to return them all to easy operability with the installation of new sash cords, additional weights to re-calibrate them following some re-glazing, and some brush-seal to deal to the rattling.

Colin provided a highly professional service with excellent workmanship and great communication - and, all at reasonable cost. I highly recommend Colin to anyone who loves the old double-hung sash windows and wants theirs to be treated kindly. I am hoping to engage Colin’s services again in the new year for repairs to another troublesome window or two.

Very happy with the work done by Colin from Wilton Sash Window Repairs. Would highly recommend his specialist/expert repair work to anyone considering having their old windows working again.

Viki Callahan-Wallace, Levin

Colin did an amazing job fixing my five sash windows by replacing cords, sanding, painting, adding counter weights - they all open like a dream now! Colin provides an excellent service for a very good price. I highly recommend Colin's expert skills to others!

Julia Agar, Northland

We recently had the windows in our house retrofitted with double glazed windows. We had two Sash windows that could not be opened due to the heavier weight of the window pane. Colin came to the rescue and done an amazing job, replacing the Sash ropes, adding the required weights to make the window operational again, and also replaced the catches with new gold ones. Colin was extremely polite and proffessional. There was no mess left behind and the windows look brand new. Highly recommend Wilton Windows for this service.

Colin is fantastic with sash windows, ours are now operating much, much better! And we are now healthy homes compliant.

Polly Miller, Mt Cook

Repair was made to two early last century sash cord windows. The work needed surrounding architraves and beading to be removed as well as the windows to access the sash cord and counterweights. Removing old paint, sanding, painting, refitting sash cord and weights, draft-strips, windows and surrounding timber sections. A very impressive job and the windows operate like new.

Vaughan Crimmins, Karori

Colin replaced all of the sash cords in our early 1900s home. Very professional, did an excellent job and a pleasure to deal with. Our windows are fully operational again. They are a delight to use after years of clunky operation. Would not hesitate to use Colin again. Highly recommend.

Glenn Cocker, Masterton

Colin replaced the weights in our sash windows which had been recently double glazed. He done a fantastic job and was very easy to deal with, would highly recommend Colin for any window repairs needed

Caolan Keegan, Newlands

Great to have an expert in double hung windows to fix them. Our house is over 100 years old and has original windows in several rooms which we’d like to think will still be working in 100 years. Colin is well organised and experienced, providing a trusted service.

S Snively, Kelburn

Quality job, done very tidily in the timeframe promised.

Paul Chambers, Kelburn

We had some double glazed windows fitted into sash windows but were not told by the company that they would be too heavy to open once fitted which was annoying. Lucky for us Colin came & fitted new weights & locks to the windows. Given they were so old, he had to problem solve a lot of issues in an old villa. Colin was calm, professional, informative & went the extra mile to make sure we got the result we wanted. He even fixed up some of damage from the window guys. I only wish I had got him involved at the start of the job. Thank you Colin. We would have no hesitation to recommend Colin to others.

“I employed Colin to address numerous issues at my historic railway cottage. Colin came to the house for a thorough consult and gave me a clear idea of what was needed. He was able to get on to the job in good time and worked with focus until everything was done even when this meant having to rearrange his schedule to accommodate unforeseen problems. Colin sorted out our numerous window issues including new sash cords, broken panes, rotten frames, deteriorated putty and poorly fitting sashes that rattled in the wind and did so with professionalism. Everything is now in good shape thanks to Colin. I found him to be very personable and easy to work with and the price fair. I have recommended Wilton Windows to neighbours and would certainly employ them in future.”
