Conservation joinery in Leighton Buzzard
What makes Timber Frame Repair work in Leighton Buzzard is usually invisible once it is finished. Local stock is dominated by Victorian hat-trade terraces, chalk-belt cottages and large modern estates, which sets the sizes and profiles we work to. dry inland conditions with cold winter frost pockets is the local complication, and frost damage to end grain and paint cracking on older softwood units is what it eventually causes. What you are paying for is splicing in new timber so the historic fabric is largely retained.
The site visit comes first, because assumptions made in an office get paid for on site. One call is usually enough for us to tell you roughly where the price will land.
A local consideration we always raise: Bedfordshire stock is dominated by repair and upgrade rather than heritage matching.

What guarantee do you provide?
Ten years on workmanship, covering manufacture and the factory-applied finish. Where we install, the installation is covered too. It is issued in writing with the handover paperwork.
Will the finish need maintaining?
A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.
How long does a typical order take?
Most made-to-size orders run six to ten weeks from survey to delivery. Conservation and heavily detailed work can take longer, and we confirm the lead time in writing at quotation rather than leaving it open.
Do you fit, or supply only?
Both. Supply-only is common for trade and contractor clients. For private clients we usually recommend supply and fit, because responsibility for the fit and the finish then sits in one place.
How do you handle glazing?
Standard double glazed units for most work, and slim-cavity units where a conservation officer has restricted sightlines. Single glazing with putty lines is available where the consent requires it.
