Conservation joinery in Grange-over-Sands
Paint Analysis and Matching is one of those jobs in Grange-over-Sands where the survey decides everything. The building stock is Lakeland slate cottages, Georgian Carlisle stock and coastal industrial terraces, so we expect variation before we ever pick up a tape. the highest rainfall in England with severe upland exposure is the local complication, and sustained saturation decay and finish failure within short recoating cycles is what it eventually causes. What we concentrate on is matching the historic colour rather than defaulting to brilliant white.
A surveyor visits first and records the real dimensions, at several points on each opening. Rough dimensions and a couple of photographs are enough for us to price it properly.
One local point to factor in: Lake District National Park controls window style closely across the central valleys.

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

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.
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.
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 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.
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.
