Conservation joinery in Penzance
If you are looking at Church and Chapel Joinery in Penzance, the timber is only half the decision. Most of what we survey locally is granite fishermen's cottages, slate-hung terraces and modern coastal builds, which is not built to any modern module. the most severe salt and wind exposure in England sets the pace of decay, and accelerated coating failure and salt crystallisation damage at glazing lines is how it shows up first. The part that matters is ecclesiastical work where the tracery geometry has to be exact.
Every job is measured on site first, because drawn sizes and built sizes are seldom the same. Tell us the problem rather than the solution and we will advise on both.
One thing that catches people out here: Cornish exposure grades mean specification should assume worst-case wind-driven rain.

“The conservation officer approved the sections first time, which had not happened with the previous applicant.”
Verified client, Cornwall“They spliced the original cill rather than replacing it, which was exactly what we wanted.”
Verified client, Cornwall“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.
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.
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 match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
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.
