Conservation joinery in Barnstaple
The Church and Chapel Joinery we make for Barnstaple is set out from a survey, not a size chart. You will find mostly cob and thatch, Regency seaside terraces and Dartmoor granite cottages in this area, and it moves as it ages. What accelerates it is the wettest large county in England with severe Atlantic exposure, and sustained rot in cob-embedded frames and moor-exposed openings follows sooner than owners expect. Everything we do here comes back to ecclesiastical work where the tracery geometry has to be exact.
The site visit comes first, because assumptions made in an office get paid for on site. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.
Worth knowing locally: cob walls move seasonally, so frames need tolerance built into the fixing detail.

Verified client, Devon“The putty lines look right, and from the street you cannot tell which windows are new.”
Verified client, DevonBarnstaple questions
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 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.
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 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.
Do you deliver nationwide?
Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added later.
