Common VELUX repair problems in St Albans

  • Leaks around the flashing or frame, often caused by settled seals or ageing roof cement.

VELUX repair expertise for St Albans

In St Albans, VELUX repair expertise means understanding the Georgian architecture and how the conditions the window faces can affect seals, flashing and mechanisms over time.

  • Stiff or seized opening mechanisms are often caused by worn hinges or accumulated debris. We strip, clean and replace the parts that are actually worn.
  • Condensation between panes means the sealed glazing unit has failed. If the frame is sound, a glass-only replacement may be the best option.
  • Draughts can be caused by compressed seals or frame movement. We replace only the components that have failed.
