Conservation joinery in Bar Hill
Half the Timber Frame Repair problems we fix in Bar Hill started as a sizing assumption. Because the area is mainly college-town Georgian stock, fenland brick farmhouses and rapid new-build growth, no two openings measure quite the same. Then there is the driest region in the UK with exposed fen wind, which reliably produces shrinkage and joint opening rather than rot in most inland stock given enough seasons. 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. Tell us what you are working with and we will put a fixed figure in writing.
Local factor worth flagging early: college and listed stock in Cambridge demands exact historic replication.

Feedback collected directly from completed projects. Full written references are available on request before you commit.
“The conservation officer approved the sections first time, which had not happened with the previous applicant.”
Verified client, Cambridgeshire“They spliced the original cill rather than replacing it, which was exactly what we wanted.”
Verified client, Cambridgeshire“The putty lines look right, and from the street you cannot tell which windows are new.”
Verified client, CambridgeshireBar Hill questions
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.
Do you take a deposit?
Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.
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.
Do you deliver nationwide?
Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added later.
What if the opening is out of square?
Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.
