Conservation joinery in Battle
Most Timber Frame Repair enquiries we take in Battle start with an opening that is not a standard size. With Regency bows and bays, weatherboarded cottages and cliff-top villas making up much of the area, off-the-shelf sizes rarely line up. Locally you are contending with severe salt exposure combined with strong UV on south-facing frontages, so UV breakdown of clear finishes and rapid degradation of putty lines is the fault we are called out to. The part that matters is splicing in new timber so the historic fabric is largely retained.
We survey before anything is cut, so the schedule reflects the opening as built rather than as drawn. A quick call or a photograph of the opening is usually enough to get you a price.
A local consideration we always raise: Regency bow windows demand curved-glass and matched-profile joinery.

“The conservation officer approved the sections first time, which had not happened with the previous applicant.”
Verified client, East Sussex“They spliced the original cill rather than replacing it, which was exactly what we wanted.”
Verified client, East Sussex“The putty lines look right, and from the street you cannot tell which windows are new.”

Will the finish need maintaining?
A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.
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.
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 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.
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.
