Conservation joinery in Saltash
Timber Frame Repair is one of those jobs in Saltash where the survey decides everything. You are mostly dealing with granite fishermen's cottages, slate-hung terraces and modern coastal builds around here, so openings vary more than people expect. The other factor is the most severe salt and wind exposure in England, which is why accelerated coating failure and salt crystallisation damage at glazing lines is the most common reason people call us. Everything we do here comes back to splicing in new timber so the historic fabric is largely retained.
Nothing goes into manufacture until a surveyor has checked each opening on site. Photographs and approximate sizes are all we need to start.
One thing that catches people out here: Cornish exposure grades mean specification should assume worst-case wind-driven rain.

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.
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.
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.
Will the finish need maintaining?
A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.
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.
