Specialist Velux Roof Window Repairs & Maintenance

Serving the Islington area.

At PMV Maintenance, we provide expert services tailored to your Velux roof windows. Our "Repair-First" philosophy means we aim to restore your existing Velux windows rather than replace them—saving you money and reducing waste.

Our Expert Velux Services

From offices to domestic homes, we provide comprehensive solutions across Islington:

Mechanical Repairs: Whether your window is stuck open, jammed shut, or the sash has completely fallen out, we provide expert onsite repairs.
Reglazing & Glass Replacement: We replace failed units suffering from condensation between the panes, cracks, or "blown" seals. Our new glazing units come with a full guarantee* and improved thermal performance.
Home Automation & "Integra" Upgrades: Modernize your manual windows with wireless remote or mobile phone control. We can even integrate your windows with Google Home or Alexa for voice-activated operation.
Solar Solutions: Eco-friendly solar motors with built-in rain sensors can be retrofitted to existing windows, alongside solar-powered internal and external heat-reduction blinds.
Preventative Servicing: Regular maintenance prevents major breakages and leaks, significantly prolonging the life of your Velux roof windows.

Why Choose Repair Over Replacement?

Many homeowners are advised to install brand-new windows when the existing frames are still structurally sound. Choosing to repair and reglaze is the eco-conscious alternative, preventing perfectly good timber and polyurethane from ending up in a landfill. By restoring your window’s performance, we help you reduce your home's carbon footprint.

The PMV Velux Health Check

Every visit includes a comprehensive inspection to ensure longevity:

Glass Integrity: Checking for misting and failed double-glazing seals.
Mechanical Function: Testing hinges, handles, and springs.
Waterproofing: Inspecting external flashing kits and seals.
Automation: Testing motors and remote controls for Velux Integra models.
Blind Operation: Ensuring smooth travel for both manual and solar-powered blinds.
