Hi all - have a couple of double glazed aluminium windows in good nick but catching at the bottom of the sides. Ground floor ones I have adjusted from the outside unscrewing the hinge a little and shifting the sash up on the opposite side (there is a little wiggle/ adjustment room in the hinge screw holes). The first floors ones are a bugger though and from inside can't make it work. I think also maybe the hinges themselves have too much play and need replacing. They are top hinging ones (hinges at the sides but opens outward from the bottom).

Can I find anyone willing to take on this relatively small job... no. Course not...

Any suggestions welcome please! Window people only seem interested in selling whole windows.

Thanks

Mr Pointy

Have you tried a search terms like "Window Doctor"? That's what a few of the ones near us list as.
