The Final Phase: Precision Refitting
Following restoration, all windows were refitted within
their original apertures. Where decorative timber subframes had deteriorated beyond repair, we created exact
replicas, incorporating the original fluted detailing and
moulding profiles to ensure architectural continuity.
Successful heritage conservation
The comprehensive window restoration project was
completed within a seven month timeframe. Hawkscroft
successfully both faithfully reproduced windows which
were beyond repair and expertly restored the remaining
heritage windows with a combination of in-situ and
workshop-based methods and techniques.
The restoration of 93 Mortimer Street is now complete,
with its unique character and architectural features
preserved. This project exemplifies how specialist
heritage restoration can successfully balance conservation
requirements with modern functionality, ensuring
that London’s architectural legacy continues to serve
contemporary cultural purposes.
