LINTEL AND SILL REPLACEMENT SERVICES EDINBURGH

At Probuild Contracts Ltd, we provide professional lintel and sill replacement services for domestic and commercial properties across Edinburgh and Central Belt of Scotland. Over time, lintels and window sills can deteriorate due to age, weather exposure, or structural movement, leading to cracking brickwork, water ingress, and potential safety concerns.

​

Our experienced builders carry out replacement works carefully and efficiently, restoring both the structural integrity and appearance of your property.

WHAT ARE LINTELS AND WHY DO THEY MATTER?

Lintels are structural supports installed above openings such as windows and doors. Their role is to distribute the weight of the masonry above and prevent structural failure. When a lintel begins to fail, it can cause cracking, dropping brickwork, or sticking doors and windows – then it is time to call probuild.

 

At Probuild Contracts Ltd, we replace damaged or corroded lintels using modern, durable materials that meet current building regulations, ensuring long-term stability and safety.

Used Probuild for a repair to my guttering. They came out to give an estimate within a few days, were polite and professional and very reasonable. The work was carried out a few weeks later when I was at work. The repair looks great and blends in with the original guttering. A few days later I received the invoice. No hesitation in recommending this company.

Very professional and quick. Very easy to communicate with them and arrange quotes and invoices. The person that fixed our roof was polite, respectful of our house and friendly with our dog. He also made no mess and left everything clean and tidy. Very happy to recommend them.

Quickly responded to our enquiry and provided a comprehensive inspection with photos and a very competitive quote. Work commenced quickly and the job was completed on time. The job was reasonably large - chimney stack repair and render, gable end wall repair and render, rear wall strip, repair and render. All six residents (block of flats) happy with the work and the 10 Yr guarantee supplied.

WINDOW & DOOR SILL REPLACEMENT

Window and door sills are constantly exposed to the elements, making them particularly vulnerable to wear and deterioration. Cracked, spalled, or poorly installed sills can allow moisture into the property, leading to damp issues and damage to internal finishes.

​

We replace defective sills with high-quality alternatives that improve weather resistance while complementing the existing appearance of your building. Our team ensures all replacements are properly bedded, sealed, and finished for a clean, professional result.

SIGNS YOU MAY NEED LINTEL OR SILL REPLACEMENT

Many property owners first notice issues through cracking brickwork above windows or doors, gaps forming around frames, or visible rust staining from older steel lintels. Internally, you may experience difficulty opening windows or doors, or notice damp patches forming around openings.

​

If left untreated, these issues can worsen over time. Probuild Contracts Ltd offers honest assessments and practical solutions to address problems early and prevent more costly repairs later.

CAREFUL, COMPLIANT REPLACEMENT WORK

All lintel and sill replacement work is carried out with close attention to safety and structural stability. We support masonry during removal, install correctly sized replacements, and rebuild surrounding brickwork to match the existing finish wherever possible.

​

Our team works efficiently to minimise disruption, keeping sites clean and safe throughout the process.
