Conservation joinery in New Mills
Half the Timber Frame Repair problems we fix in New Mills started as a sizing assumption. Most of what we survey locally is Peak District gritstone cottages, mill housing and Georgian spa stock, which is not built to any modern module. The exposure here is upland cold with heavy snow loading and hard frost, which is exactly the condition that causes frost heave damage and swelling on unbalanced-finish joinery. Where we put the effort is splicing in new timber so the historic fabric is largely retained.
We check on site before committing anything to the saw, and we query what does not add up. Get in touch and we will be straight with you about cost and timescale.
One thing that catches people out here: Peak Park properties face some of the tightest external alteration controls in England.

“The conservation officer approved the sections first time, which had not happened with the previous applicant.”

Verified client, Derbyshire“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.
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.
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.
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 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.
