Conservation joinery in Bideford
The Paint Analysis and Matching we make for Bideford is set out from a survey, not a size chart. The building stock is cob and thatch, Regency seaside terraces and Dartmoor granite cottages, so we expect variation before we ever pick up a tape. The exposure here is the wettest large county in England with severe Atlantic exposure, which is exactly the condition that causes sustained rot in cob-embedded frames and moor-exposed openings. What we concentrate on is matching the historic colour rather than defaulting to brilliant white.
Each opening is recorded individually, since a terrace of identical houses rarely is. Ask us for a figure and you will get one, with the lead time stated alongside it.
One thing that catches people out here: cob walls move seasonally, so frames need tolerance built into the fixing detail.

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 deliver nationwide?
Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added later.
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 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.
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.
