Excellent video. I'm just about to change some wooden windows tomorrow and found this really useful..... spot on 🙂
Amazing info, this will really help with my own insulation.
Great work guys 👍
You doing just fine 👌🏼
Enjoying watching your videos 📽
Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Very interesting. Was this the actual time to complete this on the video? Reason for asking is my timber windows are all going to be replaced like this one.
Hi, for something like in the video I would allow 1.5 to 2 hours. Thanks for commenting and your support :)
😂😂😂😂 mummy I need a new window... okay sweetie let me call stevie wonder he'll be able to sort it
😂😂😂😂
Hardly any shim gap for the expanding foam.
I was wondering if it would have been easier to locate and unscrew the screws holding up the frame. Why did you need to cut the frame out?
Hi Dave, thanks for watching. Unfortunately on this job the windows had the hidden cleat fixings and had the DPC fixed to the side of the old timber frame. Most of the time with timber we will take the frame out in sections. This will limit the damaged caused to the DPC, plaster and external brick face. Even if we managed to cut through the cleat fixings the DPC would of been ripped out with the old frame. Cutting the frame up allows for the DPC to be taken off the frame without ripping it out. Another problem with taken timber frames out in one is they have usually swelled over the years so are very tight in their opening. This means when removing the frame in one it’s possible to pop the face off the external brick which is never a good feeling. Hope all this helps and explains why we go to the lengths we do 👍🏻
@@mcdermottwindows9470 Thank you for the explanation.
Would you be interested in doing my front windows? It’s a bay at the bottom and a sash window at the top. I would not be able to do these. . I’m in Enfield north London ?.
Can you not recip round the frame
Hi, that is an option but we like to do it this way to make sure we cause the least amount of damage to the brick face and plaster. There is more chance of chipping the face off the brick when taking the frame out in one. Also to note the dpc can be fixed to the frame so this would be pulled out with the frame if removed in one. It’s best practice to take the frame out in sections, it may take more time and effort but will save any headaches later. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment 😃
@mcdermottwindows9470 yeah I watched the hole video and you did say in it lol.. very helpful video. 👍 do some more haha 😄
