Window Sash Repair in Downtown
A tenant in downtown Toronto contacted CanRenovation during a scheduled maintenance visit and mentioned a concern about two windows that would not stay open. The tenant assumed the issue would be expensive to fix and might require full window replacement, so it was not originally included in the work list. After inspecting the windows on-site, our team found that the problem was not structural. Some sash components had shifted out of shape due to frequent use, and several screws were loose or missing. CanRenovation carefully reshaped the existing sash profiles, secured all necessary hardware, and reinstalled the missing fasteners using appropriate fittings. Both windows—one in the kitchen and one on the upper floor—were repaired during the same visit. By addressing the issue promptly and using the existing materials, we were able to restore smooth operation without the need for ordering parts or replacing the windows. The tenant was pleased to have the issue resolved quickly and affordably, especially since the property was a rental. Now both windows stay open properly and provide reliable day-to-day use.
