Window Frame Repair
small cosmetic defects in sound window-frame material and finishes
Service overview
A stiff handle or difficult opening may concern hinges, catches or other hardware rather than the frame finish. Describe how the window operates. Suitable hardware work belongs to its own service, and a cosmetic frame patch will not correct that mechanism.
A finish that repeatedly stains or breaks down may point to unresolved water entry. Explain the history rather than requesting another cover-up. This service does not include leak diagnosis, sash restoration or window replacement, and cosmetic work may need to wait.
Soft, crumbling or deteriorated timber is different from a surface blemish. Explain any known water exposure and show the surrounding area. Rot remediation has a separate repair scope, while a severely deteriorated frame may require a specialist replacement assessment.
The agreed service covers small cosmetic timber/frame finish repairs after condition and access review, without disturbing glass or the glazing system. Exclusions: Frame replacement, structural joints, glass/beading removal, seals, sash restoration, rot remediation (existing separate intent), hazardous coatings.
Common situations
A small surface chip or finish defect can be reviewed when the surrounding material is sound. Show the whole window as well as the mark. The service is deliberately limited and does not imply that any damaged window frame can be restored.
Work should not require removal of glass, glazing beads or seals. Show how close the defect is to those components. Glass replacement, seal work and specialist glazing repairs are excluded rather than treated as incidental parts of a small frame job.
Movement at a frame joint or distortion of the opening is outside cosmetic repair. Do not cover or force the affected area to improve its appearance. A suitable specialist should assess suspected structural failure before a local finish repair is considered.

How it works
Show the complete window and a close view of the cosmetic defect, including nearby finishes and any moisture marks.
Cosmetic damage must be separated from rot, structural joint failure, glazing defects and opening-hardware problems.
Assess small suitable frame-finish repairs without disturbing glass, glazing beads, seals or structural joints.
Confirm the Frankston South address, access contact and preparation. Mention anything that limits safe handling or use of the space before scheduling.
Follow finish-drying advice and report recurring moisture or movement. A cosmetic repair does not resolve water entry or a failing frame.
Planning the work
Cosmetic damage must be separated from rot, structural joint failure, glazing defects and opening-hardware problems. Any unresolved requirement should be explained before committing to a visit or buying additional materials.
Follow finish-drying advice and report recurring moisture or movement. A cosmetic repair does not resolve water entry or a failing frame. Discuss any final finish or product-specific restrictions before returning the area to ordinary use.
Show the complete window and a close view of the cosmetic defect, including nearby finishes and any moisture marks. Keep labels and instructions available so the item can be identified accurately instead of relying on a general description.
Unexpected conditions can alter the available options. Any additional work, different components or separate specialist requirement should be discussed before extending the agreed task, rather than treated as automatically included.
