Conservation joinery in Port Talbot
Ask three firms about Traditional Putty Glazing in Port Talbot and you will get three different answers. Local stock is dominated by valleys terraces, Victorian maritime villas and civic Portland stone frontages, which sets the sizes and profiles we work to. very high rainfall with strong Atlantic and Bristol Channel exposure sets the pace of decay, and prolonged wetting decay and finish failure on valley-facing elevations is how it shows up first. In practice that means genuine linseed putty lines rather than a bead pretending to be one.
Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. 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.”

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.
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.
Do you work in hardwood or softwood?
Both. Engineered hardwood is the default where movement or exposure is a concern, and slow-grown softwood is often the better value choice for painted work in sheltered positions. We will tell you which we would specify and why.
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.
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.
