Conservation joinery in Barry
People come to us about Timber Frame Repair in Barry once the cheap option has already failed. Around here it is valleys terraces, Victorian maritime villas and civic Portland stone frontages, and that alone rules out anything bought by the pallet. Add very high rainfall with strong Atlantic and Bristol Channel exposure to that and prolonged wetting decay and finish failure on valley-facing elevations becomes the usual trigger for replacement. The part that matters is splicing in new timber so the historic fabric is largely retained.
We would rather spend an hour surveying than a week correcting. Rough dimensions and a couple of photographs are enough for us to price it properly.
One thing that catches people out here: valleys terraces share a repeating bay and sash format that suits batch manufacture.

“The conservation officer approved the sections first time, which had not happened with the previous applicant.”
Verified client, Cardiff and South Wales“They spliced the original cill rather than replacing it, which was exactly what we wanted.”
Verified client, Cardiff and South Wales“The putty lines look right, and from the street you cannot tell which windows are new.”

Can you price from drawings?
Yes. Send a drawing set or a schedule and we will price against it. If anything is ambiguous we will query it before quoting rather than assume and reprice later.
Can you work on a listed building?
Yes, and a significant share of our work is listed or conservation area. We can supply drawings and section details to support a listed building consent or planning application, though the consent itself remains the owner's responsibility.
Is the timber certified?
All our stock is FSC certified and chain-of-custody documentation is supplied with the order, which most main contractors and specifiers now require for their records.
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.
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.
