Common Double Hung Window Problems We Fix
Our experienced technicians specialise in restoring double hung windows to perfect working order throughout Sydney
Double hung windows are a popular choice in Sydney homes, offering excellent ventilation control and classic aesthetics. However, over time, these windows can develop various issues that affect their operation and energy efficiency.
At Access Windows & Doors, we understand the unique challenges that double hung windows face in Sydney's coastal climate. Salt air, humidity, and temperature fluctuations can cause timber to swell, hardware to corrode, and seals to deteriorate.

We provide comprehensive repair services that address both mechanical and aesthetic issues. From replacing worn sash cords to installing new draught seals, our technicians ensure your windows operate smoothly while improving your home's energy efficiency.
