Conservation joinery in Kendal
Slim Cavity Glazing in Kendal is rarely a catalogue job. 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. Then there is the highest rainfall in England with severe upland exposure, which reliably produces sustained saturation decay and finish failure within short recoating cycles given enough seasons. What we concentrate on is getting a sealed unit into a historic sightline without bulking it out.
We survey before anything is cut, so the schedule reflects the opening as built rather than as drawn. One call is usually enough for us to tell you roughly where the price will land.
Bear in mind for this area: 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.”

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
