Conservation joinery in Loughton
If Sash Window Replication in Loughton were straightforward, there would be a stock size for it. Most of what we survey locally is estuary bungalows, 1930s ribbon development and timber-framed village stock, which is not built to any modern module. Add the driest climate in the UK with sharp summer heat to that and shrinkage cracking and glazing bead failure from repeated drying cycles becomes the usual trigger for replacement. What we concentrate on is copying the surviving original rather than approximating it.
A surveyor visits first and records the real dimensions, at several points on each opening. Tell us what you are working with and we will put a fixed figure in writing.
A local consideration we always raise: low rainfall shifts the risk from rot toward movement and seal failure.

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

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.
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.
Is the timber certified?
All our stock is FSC certified and chain-of-custody documentation is supplied with the order, which most main contractors and specifiers now require for their records.
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.
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.
