Professional window board replacement - damaged internal sill removed, new board cut to fit, properly supported and finished. Clean appearance, ready for painting.
### The Finish Your Windows Deserve
Window boards take abuse - **condensation, plants, hot radiators underneath**. When they're cracked, warped, or water-damaged, the whole window looks tired. A new board transforms the look.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** When fitting new windows, that's the perfect time to replace window boards too - often damaged during installation anyway.
