Conservation joinery in Swansea
Most Sash Window Replication enquiries we take in Swansea start with an opening that is not a standard size. Because the area is mainly valleys terraces, Victorian maritime villas and civic Portland stone frontages, no two openings measure quite the same. Then there is very high rainfall with strong Atlantic and Bristol Channel exposure, which reliably produces prolonged wetting decay and finish failure on valley-facing elevations given enough seasons. This is really a job about copying the surviving original rather than approximating it.
Each opening is recorded individually, since a terrace of identical houses rarely is. 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.

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, 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.”
Verified client, Cardiff and South WalesSwansea 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 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.
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.
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.
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.
