Casement timber window renovation and performance upgrade.
Ventrolla’s two-part process begins with the treatment and renovation of the timber casement window; the second part involves upgrading the performance by draught-proofing the window using Ventrolla's unique perimeter sealing system, VPSS. All work is carried out internally, eliminating the need for scaffolding.
The Ventrolla Perimeter Sealing System (VPSS) is installed into either the frame of the casement window or the sash itself (depending upon the construction of the casement window). If appropriate, the system can be installed into staff bead around the frame. The pile carrier is routed into the timber giving a permanent fixing point and making the system an integral part of the window.

Standard product features | Finish: Exposed bare wood is painted with white acrylic primer to BS 5082. Ventrolla Wood Repair: Ventrolla wood repairs are undertaken using Ventrolla VR90, formulated to give long lasting wood repairs beyond those normally carried out using conventional polyester wood fillers. VR90 is a patented two-part resin system and is designed to impart the original strength to tenon joints, fill gaps/ joints and is moulded to match the window profile. It completely bonds with the parent wood and flexes when the wood contracts or expands. To achieve this bond, all decayed wood is removed exposing only sound wood. This is then stabilized using VR90 WS solution which penetrates the wood fibres to attain the permanent anchorage for the subsequently applied VR90 filler.
