Conservation joinery in Torquay
The Slim Cavity Glazing we make for Torquay 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. Then there is the wettest large county in England with severe Atlantic exposure, which reliably produces sustained rot in cob-embedded frames and moor-exposed openings given enough seasons. The value is in getting a sealed unit into a historic sightline without bulking it out, not in the timber bill.
Each opening is recorded individually, since a terrace of identical houses rarely is. We will price it properly in writing, and we will tell you if it is not worth doing.
One local point to factor in: cob walls move seasonally, so frames need tolerance built into the fixing detail.

Feedback collected directly from completed projects. Full written references are available on request before you commit.
“The conservation officer approved the sections first time, which had not happened with the previous applicant.”
Verified client, Devon“They spliced the original cill rather than replacing it, which was exactly what we wanted.”
Verified client, Devon“The putty lines look right, and from the street you cannot tell which windows are new.”
Verified client, DevonTorquay questions
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.
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.
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 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 match an existing profile?
Yes. If you can supply a section, a photograph with a rule in shot, or an old unit, we can replicate the profile. For conservation work this is usually the condition the planning officer will apply.
