Conservation joinery in Ringmer
The Slim Cavity Glazing we make for Ringmer is set out from a survey, not a size chart. You will find mostly Regency bows and bays, weatherboarded cottages and cliff-top villas in this area, and it moves as it ages. The exposure here is severe salt exposure combined with strong UV on south-facing frontages, which is exactly the condition that causes UV breakdown of clear finishes and rapid degradation of putty lines. This is really a job about getting a sealed unit into a historic sightline without bulking it out.
Nothing goes into manufacture until a surveyor has checked each opening on site. We will price it properly in writing, and we will tell you if it is not worth doing.
Worth knowing locally: 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.”

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.
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.
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.
What if the opening is out of square?
Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.
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.
