Conservation joinery in Altrincham
We take a fair volume of Sash Window Replication work across Altrincham, and almost none of it repeats. Local stock is dominated by mill-era terraces, interwar semis and large commercial and retail frontages, which sets the sizes and profiles we work to. Add persistently high rainfall with limited drying windows to that and coating failure and rot on north-facing elevations that rarely dry out becomes the usual trigger for replacement. This is really a job about copying the surviving original rather than approximating it.
The survey happens before manufacture, which is why our units fit without packing or trimming. One call is usually enough for us to tell you roughly where the price will land.
A detail specific to this area: high commercial density supports substantial shopfitting and contract joinery demand.

“The conservation officer approved the sections first time, which had not happened with the previous applicant.”

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