Stamford, PeterboroughPrivate ResidenceFebruary 2026
Restoration of original timber sash windows on a Grade I listed hall, delivered while the building continued to host events.
Challenge
Several original timber sash windows on this Grade I listed property had fallen into disrepair, but the hall needed to remain fully operational and host events throughout the works.
Approach
Specialist heritage repair products — including the Repair Care system — applied to restore the windows in keeping with the building's historic character. Rope access ensured no internal disruption or scaffolding around the property.
Outcome
Sash windows restored to standard with the hall remaining fully operational and continuing to host events throughout the project.
