About
Founded by Dylan Fricker in 2012, Retro Windows has been keeping Sydney’s timber windows in top condition for close to a decade.
Dylan learned the window trade in Melbourne working in his Uncle’s window repair business. With decades of knowledge and industry experience bestowed to him he moved to Sydney in 2012 and began working under the name Timber Window Restorations.
Sustainability became a focus for Dylan after discovering that windows play a vital role in developing modern energy efficient homes. With a keen sense of preservation, and maintaining the traditional methods taught to him by his Uncle, he is now focussed on preserving windows built over the last century and modernising them to last for centuries to come, all while providing better energy efficiency and a far lower carbon footprint than a modern Aluminium or uPVC window.
Timber Window Restorations was rebranded as Retro Windows in September, 2020.
Rot has been identified in the window sill, mouldings and sashes. After being removed it is treated with a timber preservative and sealed off before being rebuilt.
The finished repair looks and works just like a new window at a fraction of the cost. In most cases we will guarantee the repair for as long as you live in your home.
If you’re looking for a reliable and patient craftsman who takes great care and pride in his work and does the job properly, you can’t get any better than Dylan from Retro Windows. I highly recommend him!
